was diagnosed with cancer and was set to have been deported, filed a complaint

from the Minister of Interior to cancel the deportation order.

The NCHR greatly valued the minister’s decision to cancel
the deportation on humanitarian grounds. The daughter pleaded for her father to
stay and said that his cancer diagnosis followed a decision to expel him from
Jordanian territory.
The NHCR addressed the minister in an official letter that
included the complaint filed and its humanitarian dimensions. It also
communicated with all concerned parties regarding this issue, until a decision was
issued to cancel the deportation decision issued against the Arab migrant and
his son on the same humanitarian grounds.
In a statement, the NHCR said that it "appreciates the
rapid response of the Minister of Interior to this case and his issuance of a
decision to cancel the deportation of the aforementioned (migrant)."
It is worth mentioning that the NHCR receives all complaints
and deals with them based on its legal mandate under Law No. (51) of 2006,
which puts it in charge of following up and monitoring the human rights
situation in the Kingdom.
