![]() Legal expert and attorney Sahel Jaroudi told The Jordan Times the prosecutorÂ’s decision means that none of the members of the societyÂ’s administrative body can make decisions or act in his capacity as a member. Petra quoted Minister of Social Development Suleiman Tarawneh as saying he would notify the Central Bank of JordanÂ’s governor to issue a statement to Jordan-based banks not to accept cheques signed by any of the charityÂ’s board members. The charity runs healthcare centres, private schools, orphanages and social welfare centres in addition to the Islamic Hospital in Amman. The organisation, which has branches across the country, is affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, the largest opposition group. |
