ARAB-ANNIVERSARY-ONEYEAR-TUNISIA-POLITICS-FILES
(FIELS) A picture taken on November 15, 2011 shows the mother of Mohamed Bouazizi, the fruitseller whose self-immolation sparked the revolution that ousted a dictator in Yunisia and ignited the Arab Spring, Manoubia Bouazizi posing with a poster of her late son in Tunis. Slogan reads: "The spark of the revolution -- martyr Mohamed Bouazizi." Bouazizi, a 26-year-old university graduate who has only been able to find work as a fruitseller, sets himself alight on December 17, 2010 to protest harassment and unemployment. Two days later rioting breaks out. Bouazizi dies from his burns on January 5, 2011. During the unrest some 300 people are killed, according to the UN, and hundreds are arrested.
