法新社报道，周五，突尼斯首都的便衣警察逮捕了复兴运动党的一名高级官员。在现任总统凯伊斯·赛义德夺权之前，该党在该国政治中一直扮演着核心角色。

Since Thursday, nearly 3,000 mourners have filed through Cape4 Town's St. George's Cathedral before the simple pine casket containing Tutu's remains5.

自周四以来，近3000名哀悼者排队穿过开普敦的圣乔治大教堂，瞻仰装有图图遗体的简易松木棺材。

Members of Tutu's family hugged and consoled each other as the coffin6 returned for the second and final day of the lying-in-state.
