Tunisia: DJ sentenced to jail over call to prayer remix

A Tunisian court on Friday sentenced a British DJ to a year in jail after he played a dance remix of the Muslim call to prayer, the BBC reported.

London-born Dax J, was charged with public indecency and offending public morality but had already fled the country before the court case and was thus tried in absentia.
