KUWAIT'S lower court sentenced a third opposition youth activist to five years in jail "with immediate effect" for insulting the emir on Twitter, a rights group said.
"The court passed the maximum jail term against Mohammad Eid al-Ajmi for insulting the emir on Twitter," said the director of the Kuwait Society for Human Rights, Mohammad al-Humaidi on Sunday.
The ruling is not final as it will be appealed, but Ajmi will begin serving the sentence immediately, Humaidi said.
Ajmi is the third opposition youth activist to be convicted for insulting the emir on Twitter. Last month the same court sentenced two tweeters to two years each in jail each on the same charge.
Ayyad al-Harbi and Rashed al-Enezi are both in prison as they await appeals court rulings on their cases.
Humaidi said a large number of youth activists are on trial on similar charges, with verdicts expected in the coming weeks.
