Turkey attack victims
Amman - ArabToday
Jordanian state media say authorities plan to prosecute 12 Jordanians on suspicion of hate speech aimed at victims of the New Year’s nightclub shooting attack in Turkey.
Two Jordanians were among the 39 people killed in the Istanbul shooting for which the extremist group Daesh claimed responsibility.
The Jordan Times, quoting the official news agency Petra, said on Friday that 16 people were initially investigated for abusive online comments. It says the attorney general ordered 12 of the suspects detained for further investigation.
Government spokesman Mohammad Momani says the government is considering new legislation aimed at fighting hate speech.
