TUNIS (Reuters) – A Tunisian court sentenced presidential candidate Ayachi Zammel to six months in prison on Wednesday on charges of falsifying documents, his lawyer told Reuters, the second prison sentence against him in a week, days before the presidential election.

Zammel was sentenced to 20 months in prison last week on charges of falsifying popular endorsements.
