(AFP) A court in Norway on Friday jailed two sisters for being members of the Islamic State (IS) group, after they secretly travelled to Syria as teens in 2013.
Now aged 27 and 31, the pair were convicted of being members of IS, listed as a terror group in Norway and the West.
The oldest sister was sentenced to serve four years behind bars, while her younger sibling received a two-year sentence, with one of the years suspended.
The sentences were in line with what prosecutors had requested.
“The court found that it has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the two accused were members of IS, as much as women could and were supposed to be, as wives and housewives,” the Oslo district court ruled.
