TUNIS (Reuters) - A Tunisian appeal court on Tuesday temporarily released a UN official after two months in detention as part of an investigation by an anti-terrorism unit, a spokesman for anti-terrorism authorities said.

Last week, the United Nations called on Tunisia to immediately release Moncef Kartas, who was detained in late March at Tunis airport.
