Al-Jazeera Video: Political prisoners in Tunisia's new era



"Tunisia has ousted Zine Al Abidine Ben Ali, its former president, but shaking off the vestigages of authoratirian rule is proving to be an arduous task.

One of the relics of the old regime that has received particular criticism from human rights groups is the anti-terrorism law under which so many political opponents were convicted under Ben Ali's rule.

In Tunis, Al Jazeera's Nazanine Moshri speaks with one former political prisoners, and the family of another young man still serving out his sentence."
