Walid Saadaoui, 38, of Tunisian origin, and Amar Hussein, 52, of Kuwaiti origin, were convicted on Friday over the planned terrorist plot. Saadaoui, the head of the plot, was sentenced to a minimum of 37 years in prison, while Hussein was sentenced to at least 26 years. Saadaoui’s younger brother, 37, was sentenced to six years in prison for his failure to disclose information about the plot.
