The State Security Court (SSC) issued Wednesday a ruling against 14 convicts in the "Salt Terrorist Cell" case, including three death sentences, after they carried out terrorist acts that resulted in the death of six policemen and security men in Fuheis and Salt in 2018.

The sentences were as follows:

The first convict: death by hanging

The second convict: death by hanging

The third convict: 20 years in prison with temporary hard labor

The fourth convict: 15 years in prison with temporary hard labor

The fifth convict: 10 years in prison with temporary hard labor

The sixth convict: 10 years in prison with temporary hard labor

The seventh convict: 10 years in prison with temporary hard labor and fees

The eighth convict: five years in prison

The ninth convict: five years in prison

The tenth convict: charges were amended to a misdemeanor related to the trafficking of firearms without a license, which falls under the general amnesty since the common right lawsuit was dropped.

The eleventh convict: five years in prison

The twelfth convict: innocent for lack of legal evidence

The thirteenth convict: innocent for lack of legal evidence

The fourteenth convict: death by hanging (currently on the run from the law)

On Aug. 10, 2018, a Gendarmerie (Darak forces) bus exploded in Fuheis killing six and injuring a number of officers from the police and the Darak forces.

The following day, the Ministry of Interior confirmed that the explosion was caused by a terrorist attack carried out using a homemade explosive device.

The device was planted in the area where the security vehicle was scheduled to park and was detonated shortly after the bus arrived.

Fourteen convicted, including three women, were a part of the Daesh terrorist group and were arrested after clashes took place in the Naqb al-Dabbour neighborhood in Salt.
