Shadrov was also convicted of being a leader of "mercenaries." Shadrov was sentenced to life in prison while the others were sentenced to 10 years in prison. The Russian government advocated on behalf of Shadrov and Dolgov. In August 2013 Libya’s Supreme Military Court overturned the convictions of Shadrov and Dolgov. Their cases were turned over to a civilian court and they remained in custody as of February 2014. The 22 other defendants appealed separately."
