Court confirms Jordanian woman's imprisonment for vase attack
The Amman First Instance Court, in its appellate capacity, upheld a sentence of two weeks' imprisonment for a Jordanian woman along with costs, after she was convicted of injuring her husband during a family dispute and hitting him with a glass vase, which caused injuries and bleeding. The court also reduced the financial compensation amount awarded to the husband from 833.335 Jordanian dinars to 750 dinars, after it was established that there was insufficient evidence to support calculating the compensation based on a monthly income of 500 dinars. The court also maintained the criminal penalty against the wife, dismissing her appeal in this regard, and held that her defense—claiming she intervened to protect her child—was not proven to justify the use of the vase.
