A Republic of Congo court on Friday handed jail terms of up to three years to policemen accused of killing 13 young men at a police station in the capital Brazzaville last July.
The police had been on trial since October on charges of manslaughter and criminal negligence towards a person at risk. A campaign group, the Congolese Observatory for Human Rights , said the young men had been"tortured and executed" in the police station.
