The US soldier convicted of handing a trove of secret government documents to anti-secrecy website Wikileaks has been sentenced to 35 years in prison.
Pte First Class Bradley Manning, 25, was convicted in July of 20 charges against him, including espionage.
Last week, he apologised for hurting the US and for "the unexpected results" of his actions.
Prosecutors had asked for a 60-year sentence. He will receive credit for three and a half years.
In the military courtroom in Fort Meade, Maryland, Judge Col Denise Lind declared Pte Manning would be dishonourably discharged from the US Army and forfeit some of his pay.
Pte Manning showed no emotion as the sentence was delivered.
While stationed in Iraq in 2010, he passed hundreds of thousands of battlefield reports and diplomatic cables to Wikileaks, the pro-transparency group headed by Julian Assange.
Pte Manning said in a pre-trial hearing he leaked the secret files in the hopes of sparking a public debate about US foreign policy and the military.
 
Pole yake! Nia yake ilikuwa kuchangia kuiondoa Marekani katuka vita inazojiingiza.
 
There is a campaign to nominate him for the NOBEL PRIZE for peace!!!
 
Askari wa Marekani Bradley Manning alietoa taarifa muhimu kwa mtandao wa Wikileaks amehukumiwa adhabu ya kifungo cha miaka 35 jela na pia amefukuzwa jeshini.

Kabla ya hukumu hiyo waendesha mashtaka walitaka Manning apewe adhabu ya kifungo cha miaka zaidi ya 60 jela.

Waendesha mashtaka hao walidai kuwa askari huyo kijana mwenye umri wa miaka 25 alihatarisha maisha ya maafisa wa Idara za Ujasusi kwa kutoa siri hizo.

Mwezi Julai mwaka huu Manning alipatikana na hatia ya kufichua ripoti za siri zaidi ya laki saba, zilizohusu vita vya nchini Irak na Afghanistan, pamoja na kutoa kwa mtandao wa Wikileaks nyaraka nyeti za Wizara ya Mambo ya Nje ya Marekani.

Nasikiliza BBC hapa kumbe alibadilisha jina akajiita Chelsea na kutangaza kuishi kama mwanamke [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji15]. Alipata msamaha wa Obama kabla ya kuondoka madarakani baada ya kutumikia kifungo chake kwa miaka 7.
