  • The Tunisian Combat Group (TCG) or Tunisian Fighting Group was a loose network of terrorists who aspire to install an Islamist government in Tunisia. Its personnel are said to be in Western Europe and, formerly, in Afghanistan, where it was affiliated with al-Qaeda. In the United States TCG has been banned since October 2002, classed as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist entity under Executive Order 13224. A cofounder of TCB, Tarek Ben Habib Maaroufi, provided the forged Belgian passports by which the assassins of Ahmed Shah Massoud travelled to Afghanistan. He is serving a sentence in Belgium. The other cofounder of TCB, Saifallah Ben Hassine, was last seen in London. A number of the detainees held in extrajudicial detention in the United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba, remain in detention, in part, because American intelligence analysts allege they were members of the Tunisian Combat Group.
