NCRI - Jordan’s security forces have thwarted a major
terrorist plot by the Iranian regime’s Quds Force, according to a judicial
source in Amman. At least one person has been detained and large quantities of
explosives seized.
Local reports identified the accused as Khalid Kazem al-Rubaie, 49, who
holds dual Iraqi-Norwegian citizenship. He was arrested in April.
The accused was planning to carry out a ‘terrorist operation’ on Jordanian
soil, the Jordanian daily Al-Rai wrote on Monday. Following his arrest large
quantities of explosives were found in his possession in northern Jordan.
The Jordanian State Security Court will on Monday begin a military
tribunal, headed by military judge Colonel Mohammad al-Afif, in the case of al-Rubaie
who stands accused of being in possession of highly explosive materials and
preparing for a terrorist operation in Jordan.
The Al-Rai daily quoted an informed source as saying that 45 kilograms of
highly explosive substances was found in al-Rubaie’s possession at a house in
the Saqreh Osfur district of Jarsh County.
