The court sentenced Abduladhim Maktouf for his assistance to Islamic fighters in Bosnia during the country's 1992-95 war and committing war crimes against Bosnia's non-Muslim population.
Maktouf, arrested in June 2004, was accused of helping the so-called El Mujahid unit of the Muslim-dominated Bosnian Army to detain and torture four Croats and to execute a Serb civilian in 1993.
After detaining five non-Muslim civilians in the central Bosnian town of Travnik, members of El Mujahid unit tortured them and then decapitated the Serb prisoner.
