Jordan’s National Center for Forensic gave the bodies of extremists executed by the authorities on Saturday to their families to take the measures for burying them. According to sources, the Jordanian authorities will not allow the opening of mourning tents for any of the extremists.
Amman’s Attorney General Ziad Al Domoor revealed that the implementation of death sentence against the extremists is to send a clear message to those people who work to manipulate the country’s security, saying that they will have the same destiny.
He added, in a press statement, that the execution of those criminals who killed innocent people will leave positive effect for the families of victims who have been killed during their terrorist actions aiming to destabilize the country.
The families of victims also expressed their satisfaction for the execution of those extremists who killed their sons, as they stressed that the measure came to prove the rule of law in the country. Ali Al Awadat, the father of student Nour who was killed in a terrorist attack, expressed his pleasure for the execution of the killer of his daughter.
In the same context, the families of security officers who have been killed during performing their duty expressed their pleasure for the implementation of the death sentences against those people who killed their sons.
The Jordanian authorities implemented death sentences against 15 men condemned in a series of bombings and shooting attacks since 2003 that killed a British tourist, an outspoken critic of Islamic extremism and members of the Jordanian security forces, the government spokesman said.
It was the largest round of executions in recent memory, and the first since pro-Western Jordan launched a crackdown on Islamic extremists two years ago, after the killing of a captured Jordanian fighter pilot by the Islamic State group.
Jordan is a part of a U.S.-led military coalition against IS, which holds territory in Syria and Iraq. The prisoners were hanged at dawn Saturday at Swaqa Prison, about 75 kilometers (47 kilometers) south of the capital of Amman, said government spokesman Mohammed Momani.
