On 16 February, journalists Sherwan Amin Sherwani and Guhdar Zebari, together with activists Shvan Saeed, Ayaz Karam and Hariwan Issa, were found guilty by Erbil s Second Court of First Instance of endangering the national security of the Kurdistan Region  and were each sentenced to six years in prison. A week prior to the ruling, Masrour Barzani, prime minister of the Iraqi Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), claimed in a press conference that the detainees were neither activists nor journalists. Some of them were spies. They spied for other countries… Some were saboteurs .
