Djerba bomb suspects sentenced in France
 A Paris court sentenced Christian Ganczarski, a German convert to Islam, to 18 years in prison on Thursday (February 5th) for his role in the deadly 2002 suicide bomb attack on the Tunisian vacation island of Djerba which killed 14 Germans, five Tunisians and two French nationals, international press reported. Walid Nouar, the brother of the suicide bomber, received a 12-year prison term. Both defendants denied the charges and said they would appeal the verdict. The alleged mastermind of the Sept 11th, 2001 terror attacks in the US, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, was also charged with planning the Djerba suicide bombing, but the Paris court chose not try him in absentia.
