Voislav Torden , a Russian national, has been sentenced to life imprisonment for four war crimes.

The Helsinki District Court found that he was indisputably a member of the far-right Rusich paramilitary group.

Prosecutors had sought a life sentence on five counts of war crimes, but the court dismissed one of the charges.

A life sentence in Finland means an average 14-15 years behind bars.
