Tunis: A Tunisian court has jailed 19 men for up to eight years for having links to Al Qaida's North Africa wing, a defence lawyer said on Sunday.
"Tunis court judge Hedi Ayari announced the verdict to jail the 19 men between one and eight years for having links with Al Qaida and setting up a Jihadist cell," lawyer Samir Dylo Said.
The defendants, who were arrested in late 2006, pleaded not guilty.
