The Düsseldorf Higher Regional Court has sentenced an IS returnee from Sankt Augustin near Bonn to three and a half years in prison for membership in the foreign terrorist militia Islamic State (IS) and severe child abduction. The sentence of the verdict announced on Tuesday corresponded to the demands of the representatives of the federal prosecutor’s office. The defense had requested a two-year suspended sentence. The verdict is not yet legally binding.
