Bahrain court upholds 9-year prison term for opposition chief

DUBAI - Arab Today
A Bahraini court has upheld a nine-year prison term imposed on the country's opposition leader, Sheikh Ali Salman, local media reported on Monday.
Salman, who leads the now closed Al-Wefaq Islamic Society, was granted a retrial in October.
He has been in custody since his conviction last June.
An administrative court ordered Wefaq itself closed in June and Sheikh Isa Qassim was convicted of money-laundering and stripped of his citizenship. The Bahraini newspaper al-Wasat said the appeals court, in a new ruling after the court of cassation ordered a retrial, reported the verdict in Salman's appeal.
