AMMAN — The Electricity Distribution Company (EDCO) has partnered with the Gendarmerie Department personnel to implement a campaign to cut power supplies and collect overdue subscriptions on some 100 subscribers, EDCO CEO Abdul Hafith Khalafat said on Thursday.

Khalafat noted that the 100 subscribers had refused to pay bills dating back to several years, and many of them had illegal connection to the power grid, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

He added that dozens of these subscribers, who were sued, owe the company bills between JD1,000 and JD4,000, noting that the court issued rulings in favour of the company but subscribers still refused to settle their bills.
