Bahrain Mirror: The Bahraini court of appeals commuted the sentence of 17 appellants from 3 to 2 years in prison over charges of assembling and acquiring Molotov. Meanwhile, it rejected the appeals of two others.

The high criminal court convicted 22 suspects in the case, whose ages range between 15 and 26 years, and sentenced them to 3 years in prison.
