By EUobserver
A Belgian court in Antwerp has sentenced Assadollah S., an Iranian diplomat, to 20 years in prison for terrorism. In 2018 he was arrested by Belgian police as he was preparing a terrorist attack on a gathering in Paris of the Iranian opposition group, the People's Mujaheddin of Iran. Three other Iranians who were arrested with him received 18-year sentences.
