JAKARTA - Three Swedish nationals were sentenced to death in Iraq for their involvement in the shooting. The fourth national may also face the same punishment for a separate crime.
Sweden's Foreign Ministry said the government summoned Iraqi power of attorney last month to protest the death penalty of one of the three people involved in the shooting.
Sweden does not apply the death penalty and oppose its implementation in all situations.
The foreign ministry said it had now received confirmation that two other Swedish citizens had been convicted in connection with the same crime and sentenced to death.
"The information we received regarding the death penalty was very serious and we are trying to ensure the sentence is not implemented," the Foreign Ministry said.

The ministry said it had received reports that the fourth Swedish citizen was sentenced to death for another drug-related crime, but it could not confirm the information.
