The former leader of the US far-right group Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, has been sentenced to 22 years in prison for involvement in the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.
The 39-year-old got the maximum imprisonment so far for the Capitol riot.
The violence by former President Donald Trump's supporters in 2021 sought to block Congress from certifying Joe Biden’s win in the presidential election.
