A Bahraini court sentenced 4 activists to life in prison, and 1 10-year prison, accusing them of blowing up a car in an attempt to disrupt an F1 Grand Prix race in 2013.
They were also accused of making and possessing explosives, detonating explosives and stealing a car.
Since mid-February 2011, thousands of pro-democracy protesters have held numerous demonstrations in the streets of Bahrain, calling the al-Khalifa royal family for political reforms.
Scores of Bahraini have been martyred and hundreds injured and jailed by the regime forces since the beginning of the uprising.
On February, Amnesty International slammed the violence acts of the Bahraini regime against protesters.
