Bahrain military court upholds death sentence

Albawaba reports here from Bahrain:
Bahrain’s highest military appellate court on Wednesday upheld a death penalty for the first time since it was established seven years ago.

The Military Court of Cassation confirmed the verdict handed down against a soldier who had shot dead his friend and hid his body in January 2016, according to the local Al Ayam daily.

Verdicts by the court are final and cannot be appealed.
