AMMAN — The Lower House on Tuesday finished electing members of its 20 committees. At the start of the House’s morning session, deputies read verses from the Koran in memory of two police officers who were killed in Irbid on Monday night.
House Speaker Atef Tarawneh condemned the “heinous crime”, urging the government to find the perpetrators, and expressing his condolences to the Public Security Department and the families of the two officers, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
The two victims, Captain Jamal Darawsheh and Corporal Usama Jarawreh, were in their patrol vehicle when unidentified assailants reportedly fired bullets at their vehicle. Jarawreh was injured by the bullets and lost control of the vehicle, leading to his and Darawsheh’s death.
