| Description | Faisal Shahzad, the man convicted of attempting a car-bomb attack in New York's Times Square, has been sentenced to life in prison.
He received several mandatory life sentences in a Manhattan federal court on Tuesday.
The Pakistan-born US citizen had been convicted on 10 charges including counts of terrorism and attempting to use a "weapon of mass destruction" by parking a car laden with explosives in one of the city's busiest areas in May.
After his sentencing, Shahzad remained defiant, warning the US that its so-called war with the Muslim world "has just begun". |
