Prince Hamzah bin Hussein, half-brother of Jordan's King Abdullah II said on Sunday he is renouncing his title of prince.
"After what I have witnessed over the past years, I have come to the conclusion that my personal convictions and the values that my father instilled in me... are not in line with the approaches, trends or modern methods of our institutions," he wrote in the statement posted on Twitter.
Hamza was named Crown Prince when King Hussein died in 1999 and Abdullah became king.
