(AFP) An imam and three other men have been locked up by an Austrian court for running a religious group that recruited young men for Isis.
The court in Graz, the capital of Styria state, sentenced the imam to seven years in jail.
The three men received six-year, five-year and five-month suspended jail terms for their links to Isis in Syria.
Two other men were tried but acquitted.
All of the accused were born in Turkey and were found to be involved with the group founded by the 47-year-old imam, who has denied radicalizing young men to recruit them for Isis.
