Pro-Reform Sit-In in Jordan Ends in Violence
(Jordan Times) Thameen Kheetan - On Friday evening, a group of pro-government supporters arrived at Interior Ministry Circle in Amman and started attacking pro-reform activists. Police intervened and dispersed both parties with water cannons, leaving one man dead and scores injured. The March 24 Youth Movement, grouping leftist, Islamist and independent youths, had started an open-ended sit-in at the circle on Thursday to call for constitutional amendments, political reforms and combating corruption.
