BRIEF: Three Men Sentenced In Bomb Plot

COPENHAGEN, Denmark - A Danish court sentenced three men to sentences of up to eleven years in prison for planning to attack various targets in Denmark.  Mohamed Zaher and Ahmed Khaldhahi were each sentenced to eleven years in prison.  Abdallah Andersen was sentenced to four years for playing a lesser role in plotting the attacks.  A fourth suspect, Riad Anwar Dabaas, was acquitted by the court of all charges. 

The men have denied the charges against them and commented that they were only joking when discussing attacks on several targets.  Yet the police did find chemicals used to make explosives at one of the men's homes during a raid.
