Jordan seizes property linked to banned Muslim Brotherhood
Jordan's Ministry of Social Development's dissolution committee has taken possession of a property in the Bayader area along with its contents after confirming it had been rented by the now-dissolved Muslim Brotherhood. The committee's head stated that it received a request from the property's lessor indicating that the building had been rented by the dissolved association under a contract dated Jan. 1, 2006. Upon reviewing the lease agreement, a ministry team visited the site on May 15. It found that the property was jointly used by the banned association and a political party, with a shared entrance and common facilities. The committee's actions are in accordance with Article 11(b), Paragraph 4 of the 2010 bylaw governing the internal regulations of associations. This allows the committee to inventory all moveable and immovable assets, as well as debts owed to and by the association, in preparation for transferring them to the Associations Support Fund, as stipulated in Article 25 of the Associations Law. According to this law, assets of a dissolved association must be transferred to an entity specified in its bylaws — either the Associations Support Fund or another association with similar objectives. If no such entity is named, or if transfer to it proves unfeasible, the assets default to the fund.
