Tunisian judges will suspend work in courts for a week against the president's firing of dozens of judges, a judge said on Saturday.

President Kais Saied this week dismissed 57 judges, accusing them of corruption and covering up terrorist cases.

Judge Hammadi Rahmani said a judges meeting on Saturday voted unanimously to suspend work in all courts.
