• Trial: Three sentenced to death in Morocco for the murder of two Scandinavian tourists
  • Terrorism: Those accused of beheading two Nordic tourists in Morocco declare themselves insolvent

The Court of Appeal of Salé, a neighboring city of Rabat, issued a new death sentence on Wednesday for the jihadist group that killed and beheaded two Scandinavian tourists last December on a mountain in the Moroccan Atlas south of Marrakech.

The court maintained almost all the sentences pronounced in the first instance last July, but at the three death sentences handed down then a fourth was added today to a man who had been sentenced to life in perpetuity.

The Spanish-born Kevin Zoller Güervos, who in the two proceedings in the first instance and on appeal has tried to detach himself from the confessed murderers, also found his sentence to twenty years in prison confirmed.

This information is being updated.
