Jerash: Interior Minister Mazen Faraya has directed administrative governors to release 461 administrative detainees: The decision, announced in a Ministry of Interior statement, is part of the ministry's efforts to facilitate the beneficiaries' reintegration into society, enhance their chances of rehabilitation, and enable them to resume normal lives with their families, particularly at the start of the new year 2026.
According to Jordan News Agency, the amnesty follows a review of the detainees' cases and the nature of their detention, with the decision deeming their detention period already served as "sufficient." This move underscores the ministry's humanitarian approach to administrative detention by adhering to the legal safeguards stipulated by law, while simultaneously respecting legal and security controls aimed at curbing criminal activity of dangerous individuals.
