(Reuters) – The Tunisian president ousted last year in a popular uprising is willing to hand over to his country any assets found in Switzerland, widely believed to be worth tens of millions of dollars, his lawyer said on Monday.
Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali fled to Saudi Arabia on January 14, 2011 after weeks of protests against his rule, and the new Tunisian government has been trying to recover cash and assets it believes the former leader and his family had stashed abroad.
