Her husband, identified as Ali Hussein Ali al-Shamari, managed to detonate
his bomb and killed more than 20 people attending a Jordanian-Palestinian
wedding reception.
In a bid to stop further foreign militants operating covertly in Jordan,
Interior Minister Awni Yirfas announced new regulations Tuesday demanding all
Jordanians notify authorities within 48 hours of any non-Jordanian renting an
apartment or house.
"Violators of this regulation will face legal ramifications," Yirfas said
without elaborating.
Authorities will demand Jordanians provide the names, nationalities and
passport details of any foreigner renting a property in the kingdom.
In a further response to the hotel bombings, Jordan has
begun drafting tough new anti-terrorism laws, the country's first that
specifically target terror crimes, a top Interior Ministry official said.
