Jordan to indict Mainichi photographer next Sunday at earliest (http://asia.news.yahoo.com/030507/kyodo/d7qsnn2g0.html)
The Jordanian public prosecutors office is set to indict Hiroki Gomi, a photographer with Japan's Mainichi Shimbun newspaper who has been arrested in connection with the May 1 explosion at Queen Alia International Airport, on Sunday or Monday at the latest, a Jordanian prosecutor said Wednesday.
On the issue of bail, Hijazi said he will consider the possibility as soon as he receives a letter of consent from the family of Ali al-Sarhan, the airport security guard killed in the blast, while not referring to any specific date.
Gomi, who had been covering the war in Iraq, was about to fly from Amman airport when a cluster bomblet he brought back from Iraq as "souvenir" exploded during a security check at the airport. :eek:
