Jordan rejects extradition request by US

Jordan's Supreme Court on Monday ruled against the extradition of a woman placed on the US Federal Bureau of Investigation's"Most Wanted Terrorist"list. Ahlam Aref Ahmad al Tamimi was blacklisted by the United States in March and charged with"conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction against US nationals outside the US, resulting in death". Tamimi was sentenced in 2003 to 16 life prison terms. (AFP)
