Activist appears before military court over anti-regime charges
AMMONNEWS - Anas Ali - Detained democracy activist Hisham al-Haisa, who is charged with lèse-majesté charges, appeared before the State Security Court, Jordan's military tribunal, on Tuesday.
About five months ago, the military cort ordered the detention of Hisham al-Haisa in Jwaideh prison after charging him with attempts to form anti-regime terrorist groups and inciting anti-regime sentiment, according to the Jordanian Youth Activists Coalition (Hirak).
Al-Haisa was arrested while crossing the Aqaba customs check point and taken to a police precinct in the southern port city before he was transferred to a jail in the capital Amman.
SSC had issued a list of charges against Al-Haisa, member of Islamic movement youth, who took part in popular protests last fall against the government's decision to lift fuel subsidies, which led to a major hike in prices of gasoline and oil derivatives.
