Co-ordinator for Call of Tunisia party dies in town of Tataouine after
allegedly being beaten by pro-government group.

An opposition party co-ordinator in the southern town of Tataouine died as his
supporters clashed with those of the Islamist-led government, his Call of
Tunisia party and the interior ministry has said.
A party official told the AFP news agency that Lotfi Naguedh died on Thursday
afternoon after being beaten by pro-government demonstrators who attacked his
office.
Khaled Tarrouche, an interior ministry spokesperson, confirmed the violence but
said Naguedh had died of a heart attack.
A Call of Tunisia (Nida Touns in Arabic) spokesperson replied: "Even if it was
a heart attack, it was directly linked to the attack".
Amateur video and witness accounts suggested violence on both sides, with
supporters of Call of Tunisia throwing Molotov cocktails at supporters of the
Ennahdha party.
Ennahdha, a centre-right Islamist party that is the strongest member of the
ruling coalition, expressed its condolences to Naqadh's family in a statement
emailed to Al Jazeera and called for a judicial inquiry into the incident.
'Old regime'
The Call of Tunisia party was founded in June by Beji Caid Essebsi, a senior
official in the first years of toppled president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's
rule, who served as interim premier in the aftermath of the veteran strongman's
ouster last year.
The ruling coalition accuses him of regrouping former regime officials and
seeking to undermine the government.
The League for the Protection of the Revolution, a grouping close to the ruling
coalition, had called the demonstration on Thursday that then marched on the
headquarters of a local trade union which Naguedh headed.
Outside the union building, the demonstration degenerated into clashes in which
stones and Molotov cocktails were thrown by both sides, the interior ministry
said.
"Police reinforcements were deployed and separated the two sides," the ministry
spokesperson said. "The situation is now calm."
Call of Tunisia insisted the violence came solely from the pro-government
demonstrators.
Senior party official Lazhar Lakremi condemned the "cowardly hand of treason
and terrorism" behind Naguedh's death.
Post-revolution constitution
Last month, Lakremi charged that a member of the government, whom he did not
identify, was plotting to assassinate the party leader Essebsi.
The League for the Protection of the Revolution has hit back with fiery
rhetoric of its own, promising in an October 13 statement to make the "enemies
of the revolution and henchmen of the old regime ... regret that they did not
take their own lives".
The bad blood between the two sides has impacted on efforts to thrash out a
post-revolution constitution so that a new date can be set for fresh elections
that had been due to take place this year.
Two parties in the governing coalition - Ennahdha and the centre-left Congress
for the Republic of President Moncef Marzouki - boycotted crisis talks on the
new constitution on Tuesday to protest against the participation of Call of
Tunisia.
They did so even though both leaders attended.
