(RSF/IFEX) - In a letter to Prime Minister Ali Abou-al-Ragheb, RSF protested the publication ban imposed on the most recent issue of the fortnightly "Al Majd". The newspaper planned to publish an article on a fraud scandal which is currently causing a stir in Jordan. "This censorship constitutes a fresh example of the decline in public freedoms in Jordan. Journalists should be able to publish all information that might shed light on important matters," stated Robert Ménard, the organisation's secretary-general. "We ask that you take measures that will allow journalists to give normal coverage to judicial matters," he added.
