Warsaw - Two Polish men were sentenced to 10 years in prison Thursday for stabbing a man to death after he refused to give them a cigarette, local media reported.
A court in the eastern city of Bialystok sentenced the two men for stabbing a 27-year-old more than 20 times with a knife at a bus stop, reported the Polish Press Agency PAP.
The incident took place last year in a city center. An argument had earlier broken out between the victim and his three friends on a bus.
