US embassy cable - 05AMMAN4897

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

(C)  Acting PolCouns provided additional identification 
information for Jordanian detainee Khalid Mahmoud Abdul 
Wahab (ISN US9JO-000589DP) on June 13 to Walid Obeidat in the 
Foreign Minister's private office.  On June 16, A/PolCouns 
met with Obeidat to again press for an immediate response to 
U.S. questions and requests for assurances related to the 
detainee's release.  Obeidat replied that resolution of this 
matter rested with the Ministry of Interior, and that FM 
Qasrawi had twice called the Interior Minister to stress the 
need for a prompt answer.  Obeidat promised to contact post 
as soon as he had any further news to share.  Charge will 
raise again with the Foreign Minister at the earliest 
opportunity.
