In a new book, Leila Ben Ali, wife of the toppled Tunisian president, says that her husband was the victim of plot by top Tunisian security officials and by the West - not a revolution.
Leila Ben Ali says that the Tunisian uprising was a coup d'etat organised by army and security officers with western help.
Leila describes how the coup was caused by the "indoctrination of the masses, the distribution of money in poor areas, the recruitment of snipers, the intensification of protests through targeted killings, and the torching of homes."
She reports that there were an "unusual number of internships" given to young Tunisians in western countries in the months before the revolt.
She claims that President Ben Ali's flight from Tunis in January 2011 was a trick organised by Ali Seriati, the head of presidential security.
She says that her husband was not aware that the flight was going to lead to permanent exile in Saudi Arabia.
Ben Ali took the flight after being informed of a planned assassination attempt.
Leila Ben Ali's book is entitled "Ma Vérité" or "My Truth".
Leila admits that some members of her extended family were rather greedy, and let the president down.
Leila points out that the former French president, Nicolas Sarkozy, was treated very generously by president Ben Ali, and yet the French were the main people behind the coup.
