Jordan: Woman with baby before court
The North Amman Court of Peace sentenced a 22-year-old girl to one month in prison after her conviction for leaving her newborn child in front of a mosque and endangering his life. The incident began with a report of a child abandoned at night, and surveillance footage revealed that the girl left the child in front of the mosque immediately after giving birth, then boarded a vehicle driven by another person, who covered the license plates and later removed the cover to hide his identity. Investigations uncovered that the girl was in a contractual marriage and had become pregnant from an extramarital relationship. After giving birth, she left the baby without care, but later admitted this before the court. The court reduced her sentence from three months to one month, considering her confession and her desire to care for her child in the future.
