Tunisian Mosaique FM and Achourouk newspaper on Thursday reported that former president Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali had died in Saudi Arabia, citing non-Tunisian sources.

Ben Ali's lawyer told Reuters he was unable to confirm the report that the ousted president, who fled to Saudi Arabia after a 2011 revolution, had died.
