Anonymous hacks Tunisian Prime Minister’s email

The email of Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali was hacked last night by a Tunisian group claiming affiliation with Anonymous – the international cyber-activist collective. The link that the group posted on the internet effectively made public 2,724 emails, which contained confidential government information. The email addresses of the president, head of the Constituent Assembly, Ennahdha party officials, and other party leaders were disclosed as well as documents from the electoral campaigns. According to one administrator of the hacktivist group, who asked to remain unnamed, the prime minister’s email was hacked last night. Anonymous-affiliated hackers have recently launched similar actions in the websites of the moderate Islamist party Ennahdha, the conservative Islamist party Hizb ut-Tahrir, which is officially unrecognized in Tunisia, and the Ministry of Justice. The representative had previously threatened that the secret archives of Ennahdha will be published soon if the party does not fulfill its electoral promises and achieve the aims of the revolution. “We have access to their secret files and will publish them when the right moment comes,” he threatened.
