Tunisia cabinet plan fails

Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali was pursuing "another solution" to Tunisia's biggest political crisis since the uprising two years ago yesterday after his plan to form a cabinet of technocrats failed.
Jebali, left out on a limbo after his proposals for a non-partisan government were rebuffed by his own ruling Islamist Ennahda party, was to meet President Moncef Marzouki to discuss ways to exit the crisis sparked by the February 6 killing of a leftist politician.
The new formula should emerge "in the coming days," he said.
