Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - Jordanian authorities arrested a senior leader of the Muslim Brotherhood Zaki Bani Arshid on the background of his earlier statements against foreign country that would disturb the Kingdom's relations with that country.

The security agencies arrested Bani Arshid over his remarks against the United Arab Emirates over its release of a list of designated terrorist groups, which included the Brotherhood.

The arrest came to “preserve Jordan’s interests and relations with a brotherly nation that hosts a considerable number of Jordanians.”
