Live footage on the country’s national television showed several MP’s punching each other while one deputy fell to the ground as others shouted in chaotic scenes that lasted a few minutes. No one was injured in the fight.
Reports say the fight began over the refusal of a member to apologise over unwarranted remarks during a session to debate proposed amendments to the constitution.
“There was a verbal shouting match that turned into a fist fighting by several deputies. The behavior is unacceptable to our people and harms our country’s reputation,” said Khalil Atiyeh, a member of parliament who witnessed the session.
In a clip that has gone viral in Jordan, MPs start fighting while discussing constitutional amendments to a chapter in the constitution guaranteeing equal rights of all citizens.
