Its quite an incredible story. The man was imprisoned for over 22 years for continually - in fact 1,410 times - embezzling money from patients in the emergency department of the hospital in Amman. He was also ordered to pay up the JD 26,966 he embezzled since 2002 when he first started working at the hospital.
