Jordan updates

My colleague Maria in Florida sent me this:

"I am sure the young fellow in Salt appreciates to know that his injuries were not part of systematic torture, but just some wrongdoings...
And here the press release in Arabic from the NCHR...
You should consider creating a section entitled " 'Aja'ib al Urdun" :) (Marvels of Jordan)

P.S. Another "pearl" of the day: Taylor Luck at Jordan Times writes there is no policy to hinder the entrance of Syrians in Jordan... Had he read Ammon News a month ago, he would have read how male Syrian adults are systemically deported back to Syria at Queen Alia airport, and we can imagine a similar scene at the borders. But of course, from this side, the problem is the Syrian military, who are preventing Syrians from coming to Jordan.."
