Tunisian TV says several Ben Ali relatives arrested


    TUNIS (Reuters) - Tunisia's private Nessma television station reported Friday that several relatives of ex-president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali had been arrested.

    The station said in a message flashed up on screen that those arrested included Ben Ali's son-in-law Sakher Materi, one of Tunisia's most prominent businessmen. There was no immediate official confirmation.
