Chokri Hamda, the spokesman for the Ministry of Sports said that the arrest of Al Jari, an influential figure, was due to financial corruption and an improper contract between the football federation and the technical director.
Al Jari has been president of the federation since 2012. The FTT was not immediately available for comment.
