A Swedish appeals court on Wednesday upheld a 4 1/2-year prison sentence for a Turkish man who was found guilty of attempted extortion, weapons possession and attempted terrorist financing, saying he was acting on behalf of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party. “Since a possible expulsion is not too far in the future, the Court of Appeal considers that it is reasonable to believe that the obstacle will remain at that time,” the appeals court said, citing threats the man would face if deported to Turkey because of his ties to the party, also known as PKK. In July, the Stockholm District Court said he would be expelled from Sweden after serving his sentence and banned from returning.
