Bring Back Our Journalists : Sofien Chourabi & Nadhir Gutari

21th Januray 2015, is a national day organized by a group of Tunisians bloggers to write via social media network and express our support for Nadhir and Sofien.



Today, i write with my subjectivity as a Tunisian citizen and a human right believer as the victims. The incident began on the 2nd September 2014 when the journalist Sofien Choufabi and the photograph Nadhir Gutari took the road toward Libya, sent in a mission a make a report covered for FirstTV. The victims held hostage for the first time between 4th and 6th September 2014, and then they had released for a couple of hours so they could call their families before they got held hostage again on 8th September until this moment.

Unfortunately, every human being is treated and respected as much as his country appreciates him. the families victims are in a horrible situation due to five months of missing Sofien and Nadhir while the Tunisian authority could only disappointingly gave promises to look after the case with diplomatic consultations.

On 8th November 2014, many of human rights defenders gathered in solidarity for the victims in Tunis hoping to see them peacefully come back . the Libyan authorities localized where they are but the situation got worse when the Islamic State division in Libya claimed on their facebook page to have executed them. which was denied by both of Tunisian and Libyan authorities 

A huge disappointment we have witnessed since their lost. we still wait for that day when Sofien and Nadhir cross the borders getting back to their homeland
