Three al-Jazeera journalists accused of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood have been jailed for seven years in Egypt. A court in Cairo convicted Peter Greste, Mohamed Fahmy, and Baher Mohamed of spreading false news and supporting the now banned Islamist group. The trio had denied the charges.
被指控支持穆斯林兄弟會的三名半島電視臺記者在埃及被判處七年監禁。開羅一家法庭判決皮特?格雷斯特(Peter Greste)，法赫米(Mohamed Fahmy)及穆罕默德(Baher Mohamed)傳播假新聞，支持現在被禁的伊斯蘭組織罪名成立。三名被告均否認了控罪。

Nine defendants tried in absentia, including three foreign journalists, received ten-year sentences. The trial has caused an international outcry amid claims it is politicized. Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop told reporters on Monday she was bitterly disappointed by the outcome. "I simply can not understand how a court could come to this conclusion," she said.
包括三名外國記者在內的九名被告被缺席審判，被判處十年監禁。該審判引起了國際社會公憤，認為審判被政治化。澳大利亞外長畢曉普(Julie Bishop)于周一告訴記者，她對該結果感到非常失望?！拔彝耆荒芾斫夥ㄍト绾蔚贸鲞@個結論。”她說。

Correspondents say evidence put forward earlier in court did nothing to support the serious charges brought. The judge was shown in photograph from Mr. Greste's family holiday, a Sky Radio report on cruelty to horses and a video of a press conference in Nairobi.
記者表示，此前遞交法庭的證據完全難以支撐如此嚴重的控罪。法官查看了格雷斯特一家度假的照片，天空廣播關于虐待馬匹的報道和內羅畢一場新聞發布會的視頻。

"The three al-Jazeera journalists, you have been detained in Egypt for the past six months, while each sentenced to seven years in jail. Mr. Mohamed is sentenced to a further three years in jail on a separate charge involving possession of weapons," in a statement, al-Jazeera English's managing director al-Anstey said the sentence defied logic, sense, and any semblance of justice.
“過去六個月一直被關押在埃及的三名半島電視臺記者每人被判處七年監禁。穆罕默德還因持有武器另外被判處三年監禁?！痹谝环萋暶髦?，半島電視臺英文頻道總經理表示，該判決完全無視邏輯，常識和正義。

The three men are expected to appeal. Al-Jazeera has said only nine of the 20 defendants are its employees. The others are reportedly students and activists, two of whom were acquitted in Monday's verdict. It comes amid concerns over growing media restrictions in Egypt.
預期這三人將會上訴。半島電視臺表示，20名被告中只有9人是他們的雇員。據報道其他人是學生和積極分子，其中兩人在周一的判決中被判無罪。這導致人們擔憂埃及越來越嚴重的媒體限制。

Mr. Greste's brother Andrew Greste said he was surprised by verdict, and that he had been ensured all along by the authorities that the Egyptian judiciary is independent.
格雷斯特的兄弟安德魯?格雷斯特表示，他對該判決感到驚訝，過去當局一直讓他確信埃及司法系統是獨立的。
