And so perhaps he was released from Jordanian custody. I am still sure that Raed Hijazi is Ahmed (Ahmad) Hijazi, aka "Jalal".
The only info I can find is that he was sentenced to death in Jordan in February, 2002 (not 2000), and (on IslamOnLine), that his lawyer was appealing it in March 2002. I can't find any info on the conviction being overturned.
Do you have a link?
