Salé - Morocco's counterterrorism court on Thursday sentenced four men to jail terms ranging between three and five years on terrorism charges.
In the first case, Soufiane KH was sentenced to three years in jail for "forming a criminal gang to prepare and commit terrorist attacks within the framework of a collective plot to seriously undermine public order by intimidation, violence and terror," "possession and use of arms" and "belonging to a banned religious group."
As part of the second case, Omar D., a former imam at a mosque in Hay el Mohammadi in Casablanca, Rabii R. and Houssine B. were sentenced to five years in jail.
The defendants were convicted of "forming a criminal gang to prepare and commit terrorist attacks within the framework of a collective plot to seriously undermine public order by intimidation, violence and terror," "belonging to a banned religious group", "holding unauthorized public meetings" and "apology of terrorism."
During their hearings, some prisoners admitted to have visited Syria to do business or provide assistance, not to participate in military training.
