At least 10 members of the Boko Haram sect have been sentenced to death in Chad as part of efforts by that country to stamp out lawlessness.
The 10 were found guilty of terrorism by a court in the capital, N’Djamena, according to Reuters’ report quoting judicial sources.
“They are all sentenced to death,” said one of the sources.
N’Djamena, less than 100 kilometres from the Nigerian border, was hit by a series of suicide bombings in June and July that killed more than 40 people.
