(Swiss Info) An Iraqi citizen who has been living in Switzerland on and off for 22 years has been found guilty of setting up a network of terror sympathisers and inciting his wife to commit a suicide attack in Lebanon.
The Federal Criminal Court sentenced the 52-year-old man to five years and 10 months in prison. The trial was held over two days in early September and the decision was made public on Thursday.
The court did not grant the request of the Office of the Attorney General to commit the man to a mental institution. It was the first such request concerning someone involved in Islamic terrorism.
