RFE/RL Journalist Released From Azerbaijan Prison
自由歐洲電臺被關(guān)押在記者從阿塞拜疆釋放
A journalist from Azerbaijan was released from prison on Wednesday.
周三阿塞拜疆監(jiān)獄釋放了一名記者。
Khadija Ismayilova will now be permitted to serve her sentence at home. The country’s supreme court also reduced her sentence from seven years to just over three years.
阿塞拜疆記者伊斯馬·伊洛娃(Khadija Ismayilova)現(xiàn)被允許在家中服刑。阿塞拜疆最高法院也將其服刑期由原來的7年縮短到3年。
Ismayilova is a reporter for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. She has won awards for her investigative journalism.
伊洛娃是自由歐洲電臺的記者。她曾憑借自己的新聞調(diào)查贏得了獎。
In 2015, Ismayilova was sentenced to prison on charges of tax evasion and abuse of power. Many think the charges were motivated by politics.
2015年,她因非法營商及逃稅等經(jīng)濟罪名被判刑。很多人認為這樣的指控是出于某種政治原因。
John Lansing is the CEO and director of the U.S. Broadcasting Board of Governors, which oversees Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. Lansing said her release was a “positive development for the people of Azerbaijan and a step forward for press freedom.”
約翰·蘭辛(John Lansing)是美國廣播理事會的CEO。美國廣播理事會負責監(jiān)督自由歐洲電臺。蘭辛說伊洛娃的釋放是“阿塞拜疆人民積極發(fā)展的結(jié)果,是新聞業(yè)自由的進步”。
The U.S. State Department also welcomed news of Ismayilova's release. A statement by deputy spokesman Mark Toner said the decision would strengthen the country of Azerbaijan and its relationship with the U.S. The statement also urged the Azerbaijani government to drop the remaining charges against her.
Human rights groups echoed that idea. Human Rights Watch also called on the government of Azerbaijan to release other journalists and activists held on politically motivated charges.
美國國務院同樣對釋放伊洛娃有正面評價。副發(fā)言人唐納(Mark Toner)聲明這一舉動將有利于阿塞拜疆的發(fā)展,并同時加強阿塞拜疆和美國的關(guān)系。他還表示阿塞拜疆因撤銷對伊洛娃的其他指控。人權(quán)組織積極回應了這一觀點。人權(quán)觀察組織也呼吁阿塞拜疆政府釋放其他出于政治原因被關(guān)押的記者和活動家們。
