Scores of Jordanians demonstrated in front of the Saudi Arabian embassy in Amman to protest rulings by Saudi courts to behead 29 Jordanian truckers found guilty of drug trafficking.
'There are 29 Jordanians ... mostly truck drivers, who have been condemned for drug trafficking and they are awaiting execution by beheading,' lawyer Abdul Karim Shraydeh told reporters.
The protest was arranged by Jordanian and Arab groups campaigning for the annulment of the death penalty. One of the convicts was beheaded a few days back.
According to judicial sources, drug traffickers use Jordan as a transit country for smuggling narcotics from other parts of the region to Saudi Arabia and other oil-rich Gulf nations.
