Jordanian authorities summon individuals suspected of hiding banned Muslim Brotherhood's assets
LONDON: Jordanian authorities have begun summoning individuals suspected of hiding assets belonging to the Muslim Brotherhood group who did not resolve their status during a grace period. Jordan's Public Prosecution is targeting individuals who are found to be knowingly concealing assets for the banned group and could face criminal charges such as money laundering and breach of trust, especially if they refuse to confess the truth after being presented with financial report evidence. The move follows a one-month grace period that ended on June 14, allowing those holding assets for the Muslim Brotherhood to regularize their status before the case went to the judiciary. During the grace period, several individuals submitted written declarations to authorities, indicating that they held, either solely or jointly with others, properties and funds on behalf of the group, according to an informed source who spoke with the Petra news agency. Settlements were reached, and the assets were subsequently transferred to the Associations Support Fund at the Ministry of Social Development. In April, Jordan banned the activities of the Muslim Brotherhood after authorities thwarted a series of plots that posed a threat to the country's national security. Individuals connected to the group were found to be involved in the manufacturing of missiles and amassing a cache of weapons. In mid-July, Jordanian authorities cracked down on the complex financial network of the Muslim Brotherhood, both domestically and internationally, seizing financial assets worth more than 30 million Jordanian dinars ($42.3 million).
