TUNISIA Protesters have thrown tomatoes and stones at Tunisia’s President Moncef Marzouki in Sidi Bouzid, where the Arab Spring started exactly two years ago.
Mr Marzouki was swiftly evacuated by security officers, disrupting his rally to mark the anniversary.
Protesters invaded the square where Mr Marzouki had addressed a crowd of about 5,000 people, AFP news agency reports.
They threw tomatoes and stones, forcing security officers to evacuate him and parliamentary Speaker Mustapha Ben Jaafar.
