We, the undersigned individuals and organizations, call on the Jordanian authorities to immediately release Dr. Omar Emile Awad (member of the Political Bureau) and Bahaa Alayan (member of the Youth Leadership) of the Jordanian Communist Party.
More than 65 days have passed since their abrupt detention, which has taken place without any legal jurisdiction and through a highly opaque process aimed solely at silencing the patriotic left-wing voice in the country that was campaigning in solidarity with Palestine.
We call on all international organizations to raise this issue in all international bodies, and we urge the Jordanian government to grant their immediate release.
Sign the petition calling for the release of Omar Emile Awad and Bahaa Alayan here.
Jordanian Communist Party
