A Finnish court has handed down a 16-month suspended sentence to an Iraqi man in a war crime case.
The court in Tampere found on March 18 Jebbar Salman Ammar guilty of desecrating the corpse of a deceased enemy fighter in Iraq in June 2014.
The 29-year-old had posted three pictures of himself and a decapitated head of a man on his open Facebook page.
Prosecutors had sought a two-year prison sentence.
Ammar had arrived to Finland about six months ago and was detained in November.
A trial in another Finnish court opens next week against an Iraqi man suspected of war crimes.
