Free Abu Issam and All Political Prisoners in Jordan
In our last issue, we wrote about the
massive arrests of patriots in Jordan,
including the leading militant Azmi al
Khawaja (Abu Issam), who is still being
held by the Jordanian Central In-
telligence. We have recently been in-
formed that Abu Issam was beaten and
tortured until he lost consciousness.
The interrogators are still trying to get
information from him by force.
However, he has resisted all their at-
tempts and confronted his captors with
high morale. Abu Issam’s wife has been
prohibited from visiting him since his
‘arrest two months ago.
- In another incident related to
political prisoners in Jordan, represen-
tatives of Amnesty International met
with the wives of some of these
prisoners. The wives explained what
had happened to them, especially about
being prevented from visiting their
husbands. The Amnesty International
representative related that the
authorities had told him that the
prisoners detained at the Central In-
telligence are still being questioned
after which they will be transferred to
prison for trial, then released! Ob-
viously, this is a big lie concocted by the
Jordanian authorities to trick the in-
Z
ternational organizations working for
justice for political prisoners. The pro-
cess described by the authorities cor-
responds to the formalities of Jorda-
nian law, but the reality is that such
prisoners are held by the Central In-
telligence for an indefinite period,
sometimes years. Many are never
brought to trial at all, much less
speedily released.
