Suspected Somali pirates captured by the Dutch navy working under NATO command are seen behind bars at the Mombasa Law Courts in the Kenyan coastal city of Mombasa, January 23, 2014. A Kenyan court sentenced 24 Somalis to seven years each in prison on Thursday for attempting to hijack an Iranian merchant vessel, FV Ariya, in the Gulf of Oman in October 2010. The men were handed over to Kenyan authorities because Somalia, which is struggling to rebuild after two decades of civil war, was not seen as stable enough to try them properly.
