The Judicial Council says Ihsan Barakat, a 46-year-old judge and mother of two, will take up her post on Sunday.
The council, the highest judicial authority in Jordan, said in a statement on Thursday that Barakat will head a group of 60 district attorneys, including only one other women, serving in the Jordanian capital Amman.
Only male district attorneys, commonly known here as prosecutors, serve in other districts across Jordan.
