Martyr's families demand respect

“The demands of  martyrs familes and of the wounded are legitimate,” Said Manoubia Bouazizi, mother of Mohamed Bouazizi, Tunisia's revolution catalyst, when she met Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali. She called "to rehabilitate them, and enable them to claim their financial and honorable rights." The mother refused a monthly grant of $ 85 to be paid to her by the state, and told the official press agency that, "this grant does not rise to the value of the sacrifice Mohammed Bouazizi has made." "The state does not provide for my family expenses, contrary to what some think," she explained, “we are waiting for the compensation from the current government that is promised by the Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali. " On their first meeting, December 28, the government announced the decision to accelerate the payment of the second part of the compensation award given to families of revolution martyrs and to the wounded. The Minister of Justice promised that saying "This is to rehabilitate and to apologize to the families, although the human soul cannot compensated." He also asserted that "the ministry will prosecute the perpetrator of the crimes, and they will be tried, but in the framework of the law and without revenge.”
