The 10 defendants were found guilty of being behind "terrorist plots", detonating explosives and resisting police, the kingdom's public prosecution said in a statement.
"Four were sentenced to life in prison, while the remaining defendants were jailed between three to 15 years," it said.
The defendants were charged of detonating a roadside bomb when a police patrol passed in the village of Akr, south of Manama, in April 2014.
Three police vehicles were damaged in the attack, the prosecution statement said.

Despite the crackdown on the 2011 uprising, protesters frequently attack police in Shiite villages outside the capital Manama.
