The Tunisian administrative court has suspended Wednesday Tunisian President Kais Saied's June decision to dismiss 57 judges, according to Imad Al-Ghabri, a court spokesman. 

Speaking to Tunisian radio Ibtissama, Al-Ghabri said that the "Presidency of the administrative court has finalized going through all appeals, and decided to discontinue the implementation of the exemption decision for a number of judges after reviewing factual and legal data used in the investigation."

The Head of the Association of Young Judges, Murad Al-Masoudi, in a statement to Ibtissama, revealed that about "47 appeals submitted by the judges included in the exemption decision were accepted for discontinuation, while the rest of the [dismissed] judges have pending appeal renewals."

In early June, Tunisia's President Kais Saied fired 57 judges after accusing them of corruption, collusion, and safeguarding accused individuals in terrorism cases.

Saied, who seized executive authority last summer, dissolved Parliament in March, calling for legislative elections within three months.

"Today, at this historic moment, I announce the dissolution of the Assembly of Representatives of the people, to preserve the state and its institutions," he said in a statement carried on state TV.

The Tunisian President made the announcement during a meeting of the National Security Council, just hours after parliamentarians held an online plenary session and passed a bill opposing his "exceptional measures".
