Two jailed over Tunisia bombing
Two men have been jailed for five years by a Spanish court for collaborating with a terrorist group in an attack in Tunisia that killed 21 people.
Pakistani Ahmed Rukhsar and Spaniard Enrique Cerda Ibanez were found guilty of sending money to a man believed to have financed the bombing.
Victims of the suicide attack at a synagogue on the island of Djerba included 14 German tourists.
The attack was claimed by a senior figure in al-Qaeda months later.
The attackers drove a tanker truck filled with cooking gas to the synagogue before detonating the truck, court documents said.
