Middle East University, in collaboration with Jordan’s Public Security Directorate, held a specialised dialogue titled “Community Safety, Cybercrime and Drug Control,” targeting university students. The session included Deputy President Dr. Ahmed Al-Louzi, Central Badia Police Director Colonel Omar Al-Shmaileh, deans, faculty and administrative staff, and senior officers from Public Security.
The discussion covered three main areas, presented by Captain Ayoub Abu Rabie from the Cybercrime Unit, Captain Ammar Al-Rawajih from the Anti-Narcotics Department, Lieutenant Youssef Al-Daqaq from the Criminal Information Directorate, and First Lieutenant Ziad Al-Darin from the Community Safety Centre.
Captain Abu Rabie highlighted the risks of the digital space, noting over 24,000 electronic extortion and fraud cases in Jordan, and warned against unsafe use of social media apps, particularly Snapchat, which is wrongly perceived as private. Legal penalties can reach three years’ imprisonment and fines of JD20,000.
Captain Al-Rawajih addressed drug control, explaining that traffickers exploit misleading claims about substances enhancing concentration or energy, leading to gradual addiction and loss of behavioral control.
Lieutenant Al-Darin outlined the Community Safety Centre’s role in promoting a safe social environment, combating extremist ideology and hate speech, and reinforcing coexistence and moderation.
The session concluded with an interactive discussion between students and officers, focusing on community prevention strategies and secure reporting of cybercrimes.
