CAIRO: An Egyptian court has convicted four Coptic Christian teenagers for an anti-Islam video on Thursday, sentencing three to five years in prison and referring a fourth, who is under 18, to a juvenile detention facility.

The teenagers’ lawyer, Maher Naguib, said his clients, who are high school students in the southern province of Minya, haven’t been detained and didn’t appear in court for the trial.

The video was filmed by the students’ teacher, who is also a Christian, and who was sentenced to three years in prison for insulting Islam in a separate trial.

Naguib said the video came to light in April 2015, shortly after Daesh militants in Libya beheaded dozens of Egyptian Christians.

The video prompted calls by Muslims to evict the students and the teacher from their village. They were detained and the teacher and his family were ordered to leave the village after a meeting of the village elders.

Christians make up approximately 10 percent of Egypt’s population.
