TEHRAN – Ten people sentenced to jail for attacking the Saudi embassy in Tehran in 2016 have had their appeals against their convictions rejected, Press TV reported on Monday.

The Court of First Instance had examined the accusations leveled against 19 people in the case which has been lodged by Tehran Prosecutor’s Office last year. One person was also tried in absentia.

Five of those tried were sentenced to six months in prison, while five others were handed down three-month sentences.
