Two managers of a Jordanian website have been arrested for spreading rumors that an Iraqi jihadist had been freed in exchange for a Japanese hostage.
The owner of the Saraya News site, Hashim al-Khalidi, and editor-in-chief Seif Obeidat could face up to 15 years in prison if convicted. Jordan has ordered the closure of the site.
On Wednesday, Saraya News reported that Rishawi had been freed and had arrived in Iraq.
