It looks like he's seeing the difference between the Jordanian and UK judicial systems first hand.
As long as the process turns out to be transparent and fair is what matters most I reckon.
A Jordanian military court has refused bail to radical Islamist cleric Abu Qatada, who faces terrorism charges after being deported from the UK.
His lawyer Taysir Diab said no reason had been given for the refusal.
The 53-year-old preacher was convicted in absentia of plots against Westerners in Jordan in 1999. He faces a retrial there. No date has been set.
Under Jordanian law, those convicted in absentia have the right to a retrial.
