The special assize court of Paris pronounced this Wednesday a sentence of eight years in prison against Yassine Sebaihia, ten years for Farid Khelil and thirteen years for Jean-Philippe Jean Louis at the trial of the attack of Saint-Etienne-du- Rouvray.

The three men, prosecuted for "terrorist criminal association", faced up to thirty years of imprisonment.

Rachid Kassim, a propagandist for the Islamic State (IS) organization presumed dead in Iraq, was sentenced in his absence to life imprisonment for "complicity" in the assassination of Father Hamel in his church in July 2016.

The three accused present in the box were the members of the entourage of the two 19-year-old jihadists Adel Kermiche and Abdel-Malik Petitjean, who had burst into the church of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray (Seine-Maritime), on July 26, 2016. They had been killed by police shortly after the attack.
