Aafia Siddiqui, the female Pakistani scientist convicted of attempting to kill US military personnel, has been sentenced to 86 years in prison.
Siddiqui was being interrogated by US officials in Afghanistan when she grabbed a rifle and opened fire, shouting “death to Americans”.
US prosecutors called her an al-Qaeda sympathiser and sought life imprisonment.
Her conviction in February sparked protests in Pakistan.
Siddiqui had studied in the US before marrying a relative of accused 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
