One of four men charged in the death of a Calgary teenager in late-2016 has been sentenced.
Last summer, Ashraf Jasem Ajil pleaded guilty to accessory after the fact to manslaughter in the Dec. 3, 2016 death of Ezzulddin Al-Ogaidi.
The 17-year-old’s body was found in a remote area just north of Morley two days after police were called to a home in Monterey Park for a check on welfare. At the time of the call, a neighbour claimed to have heard what sounded like a gunshot, but nothing unusual was found.

Ajil, 25, was given credit for nine days of pre-trial custody.
Three other men charged in the case are expected in court again later this spring.
Ahmed Abid and Mohammad Khalil are expected to be in court March 5 to begin a five-day preliminary hearing. Both face counts of accessory after the fact.
Matin Hamid Ahmet faces charges of manslaughter and several weapons-related offences. He will be in court again on March 8.
