TUNISIA-ARAB-ANNIVERSARY-ONEYEAR
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY CECILE FEUILLATRE
Fayda Hamd, a 45-year-old Tunisian policewoman, who reportedly slapped Mohamed Bouazizi, 26, the fruitseller whose self-immolation sparked the revolution that ousted a dictator and ignited the Arab Spring, poses on December 7, 2011 in Tunis. The roadside vendor's December 17, 2010 altercation with the policewoman and his subsequent self-immolation in Tunisia started the Arab Spring that toppled veteran rulers in North Africa and the Middle East. Hamdi resumed work in October at the local municipality in Sidi Bouzid. Sitting in her windowless office, she told AFP that she "does nothing like everybody here". Accused of having "slapped" Bouazizi, she spent three and a half months in prison before being acquitted in April after the revolution. She avoids talking about Bouazizi saying she is "under shock" after his suicide. AFP PHOTO / FETHI BELAID
