Millions of Jordanian Dinars in Security's Grip: What’s the Story?

Social media activists in Jordan shared a video showing millions of Jordanian dinars inside a bag at a security investigation center, highlighting the involvement of two individuals in the incident and raising questions among activists about the nature of the case. Colonel Amer Al-Sartawi, the media spokesperson for the Jordanian Public Security Directorate, confirmed that the video being circulated, depicting two people and a bag containing large sums of money, is old and dates back over three years. It is linked to a case involving the thwarting of a fraud attempt against an individual who was being sold quantities of gold in exchange for that money. All legal procedures were taken regarding that case at the time. The media spokesperson urged everyone not to publish or circulate any information or videos without verifying and confirming their details from official sources and channels. Typically, the confiscated items are filmed and documented as a form of record-keeping, allowing images to be placed in the case file so that the judge or prosecutor can review the evidence and confiscated items to properly classify the case within the correct legal framework.
