Record summary

After Tunisia's 2011 revolution, local reporting described arrests and prosecutions involving alleged sorcerers, fortune-tellers, and people accused of exploiting clients through occult services. These reports offer a lead into the interaction between Islamic moral discourse, inherited criminal provisions, police practice, and post-revolutionary media sensationalism. They must be separated into named cases because summaries often conflate fortune-telling, fraud, sexual coercion, and homicide allegations. No reported arrest verifies supernatural causation; the evidentiary issue is what courts established about conduct and deception.
