Jordanian authorities confirm a man sought by Irish police in connection with the murder of Jamey Carney is being detained in Jordan for 15 days, while an investigation proceeds. Reports from multiple outlets say the Jordanian government and relevant ministries have confirmed the detention after Irish officials requested assistance following Carney’s killing in Kerry. The Interior and Justice ministries state that the individual is referred to Jordan’s Public Prosecutor at the Major Criminal Court. The Irish Times adds that a prosecutor attached to the court orders the suspect to remain in custody. RTE News similarly reports that Jordan has detained the man and that investigations are under way in the country. IrishExaminer.com likewise says Jordanian authorities confirmed the detention and that the custody period is set for 15 days. Across the accounts, the consistent point is that Jordan is holding the suspect temporarily while legal and investigative steps continue through its serious-crime judicial process.
