Mohamed Al Brahmi, Tunisia's opposition leader, has been shot dead in Tunis in front of his house.

Sources told Al Jazeera on Thursday that it was not yet clear who had assassinated Brahmi, who was also a member of parliament.

Brahmi was from the Democratic Patriots' Movement, the same party as Chokri Belaid who was assassinated a few months ago.
