Three French jihadists sentenced to death in Iraq [1]

The Iraqi judiciary blames them for belonging to the Islamic State. They have thirty days to appeal.
Three French men were sentenced to death Sunday in Iraq for belonging to the jihadist group Islamic State (IS), a verdict unpublished for nationals of this country, according to a judicial source. These are Kévin Gonot, Leonard Lopez and Salim Machou, arrested in Syria by an Arab-Kurdish anti-IS alliance, before being transferred to Iraq with nine other French in February, told AFP a magistrate of the Baghdad court which tried them.
The three men have 30 days to appeal, according to Iraqi law, which provides for the death penalty for anyone who joined a "terrorist" organization, whether he fought or not. Three Frenchmen have already been found guilty of joining ISIS in Iraq: Mélina Boughedir, 27, Djamila Boutoutaou, 28, and Lahcène Gueboudj, 58. All were sentenced to life imprisonment, equivalent to 20 years in Iraq.....
