A number of Jordanian nationals who are held in Israeli prisons have been offered to complete their prison sentences in Jordan, Al-Monitor has learned from multiple Jordanian and Palestinian sources.
Palestinian head of the Commission of Prisoners Affairs Qadri Abu Bakr, which falls under the Ministry of Prisoners Affairs, confirmed the reports to Al-Monitor. “Two months ago, a number of Jordanian prisoners held in Israeli prisons were approached by Israeli prison officials with the offer to complete their sentences in their country. They received mixed reactions,” he said.
