SARAJEVO, Jan 10 (Reuters) - Bosnia's state court jailed a Swede, a Turk and a Bosnian on Wednesday for planning a suicide attack in Europe.Judge Mehmed Sator said Swede Mirsad Bektasevic, 19, Denmark-based Turk Abdulkadir Cesur, 21, and Bosnian Bajro Ikanovic, 29, all Muslims, wanted to press Bosnia and European governments to withdraw their forces from Iraq and Afghanistan.
"Bektasevic and Cesur are sentenced because ... they travelled to Sarajevo to carry out a terrorist attack on the territory of Bosnia or another European country," Sator said.
Bektasevic was given 15 years and four months and Cesur was sentenced to 13 years and four months. Ikanovic was sentenced to eight years for supplying Bektasevic with explosives to be used in a suicide belt, Sator said.
The three men shouted Allahu akbar after Sator refused them to speak after sentencing.
