Water meter magnet case court ruling
The West Amman Criminal Court for Minor Offenses convicted a Jordanian of using water unlawfully after it was proven that a magnet was placed on the water meter to affect its functioning. He was sentenced to four months' imprisonment and fined 1,000 Jordanian dinars. Additionally, he was ordered to pay compensation of 1,714.550 dinars for damages, and to remove the causes of the violation and restore the situation to normal within one week of the final ruling. The case dates back to when it was discovered by water authority employees, who confirmed the presence of the magnet on the meter without permission. Despite the defendant’s defense that he cannot read or write and that he was in a place accessible to multiple people, the court considered the evidence to be legal and reliable, and found the defendant guilty of violating the law.
