ISTANBUL - Each of three suspects who were earlier sentenced to 25 years 6 months and 20 days on charges of murder by ''sacrificing a person for Satan'' was sentenced to life in prison.
The Supreme Court of Appeals had earlier annulled the imprisonment sentence to the suspects and decided on re-trial of them.
Suspects Omer Celik, Engin Arslan and Zinnur Gulsah Dincer were retried by the Istanbul High Criminal Court no:2, and the court ruled to sentence them to life in prison on charges of ''killing a person savagely''.
