Tunisian journalist sets himself on fire calling for a revolution

Abderrazak Zorgui, a 32-year-old journalist, posted a video online before setting himself on fire in Kasserine, Tunisia, describing his desperation for a revolution over poor living condition and corruption.

He expressed his frustration at unemployment and the unfulfilled promises of Tunisia’s 2011 Arab Spring revolution.

Authorities said Zorgui died of his injuries on Monday 24th December soon after being taken to hospital.
