Jordan announced today, Saturday, the arrest of the former head of the royal court, Bassem Ibrahim Awadallah, and others, for security reasons, which he did not specify.
The official Petra News Agency reported, according to an unnamed security source, that the arrest of Awadallah, one of the supervisors, Hassan bin Zaid, and others, took place after close security follow-up.
The source added that an investigation is underway into the matter without specifying the reasons for the arrest, and the details of the security follow-up that led to that.
In the same context, the American Washington Post reported that the Jordanian authorities were arresting Prince Hamzah bin Al-Hussein and 20 others for what they said was a threat to the country's stability.
