Tunisian government cracks down on 'rogue mosques'

Just under three months ago, the deadly Bardo museum attack in Tunis highlighted the presence of jihadist cells in Tunisia.


Thousands of Tunisians have already joined jihadists in Iraq and Syria. Some did so after being influenced by radical imams at home.
