(ANSA) - TEL AVIV, 04 APR - "Prince Hamzah and the others have brought threats to security and stability".
This was said - quoted by Petra - by the Jordanian Deputy Prime Minister alSafadi on the arrests that took place yesterday in the Hashemite kingdom.
"The security services - continued al Safadi - have monitored a person with links to foreign security services who communicated with Prince Hamzah's wife".
At the same time - he added in the official statement - "they immediately offered her a plane to leave Jordan for a foreign country".
Al-Safadi also attacked the videos released by Prince Hamzah accusing him of having "distorted the facts, invoking local and foreign sympathy".
"The people around Prince Hamzah - he added - communicated with entities that defined themselves as 'external opposition'".
"The investigations have brought to light contacts with foreign entities", said al-Safadia, adding that "all the actions, the contained moves, were cut in the bud".
"The security services - continued the deputy prime minister of Petra - have recommended King Abdallah II to transfer these activities to the State Security Court. The king preferred to start the conversation with Prince Hamzah in a restricted context".
