A Jordanian state security court has sentenced two former officials to serve 15 years in prison over the sedition case in the kingdom and a plot to undermine its security.
Bassem Awadallah and Sharif Hassan bin Zaid were found guilty of sedition and incitement charges.
The court said it had confirmed evidence backing the charges against the pair and that they had both been determined to harm the monarchy.
Awadallah was charged with agitating to undermine the political system and committing acts that threaten public security and sowing sedition.
The verdict follows three weeks after the first session of the trial was held.
