BBC News - Thailand court jails Iranians over bomb plot
A court in Thailand has jailed two Iranian men for their roles in an attempted bomb plot in the capital, Bangkok, in February 2012.
The two men said they were innocent, but the court found them guilty of charges that included illegal possession of explosives.
The men were detained after a huge explosion accidentally damaged the house they were staying at.
One man had his legs blown off after he tried to throw a bomb at police.
The two were among six suspected of involvement in the bomb plot after the accidental blasts in the Ekamai area in central Bangkok.
The two defendants were part of what Thai officials believe was a team sent to Thailand to target Israeli diplomats in Bangkok.
The blasts came a day after two bomb attacks targeted Israeli diplomats in India and Georgia.
Israel has accused Iran of orchestrating the attacks, a charge which Iran denies.
