 A former Jordanian royal court chief and a low-ranking member of the royal family have pleaded not guilty to charges of agitating to destabilize the monarchy. Prosecutors have referred to a military court, the case of Bassem Awadala, an ex-royal court chief and finance minister, who played a big role in the drive to liberalize Jordan's economy, and sheriff Hassan Zayed, a distant relative of King Abdullah, during the four session of the trial, both pleaded not guilty according to Mohammed Afif Awadala's lawyer. A human rights activist have denounced the trial of civilians in the state security court, a special court they say is not independent of the judiciary and lack standards of a fair trial.
