    Tunisian court upholds 18-month sentence for presidential candidate Zammel, lawyer says

    TUNIS (Reuters) - A Tunisian appeal court on Thursday upheld an 18-month prison sentence handed down to presidential candidate Ayachi Zammel, his lawyer said, two days before the vote is held.

    Zammel, who has been in prison for a month, is one of three candidates running for the presidency, along with current President Kais Saied and politician Zouhair Maghzaoui.
