Khaled al-Soufi is a Jordanian national of Palestinian Arab origins that is connected to the stabbing of eight people at a popular archaeological site in northern Jordan in November in an attack allegedly inspired by the Islamic State group.
The military judge presiding over the trial accused Khaled al-Soufi of supporting Islamic State ideology and carrying out the attack at Jerash to avenge the death of late Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Also, Khaled al-Soufi was charged with promoting the ideas of a terrorist organization. He pleaded innocent to the charges, but if convicted he could face up to 15 years in prison.
