巴黎一家法院周五判处一名年轻的印度男子20年监禁，罪名是领导一个男性至上主义组织，强迫年轻女孩（其中许多是未成年人）进行性行为，并在某些情况下对她们实施酷刑。
A Paris court on Friday jailed a young Indian man to 20 years jail for leading a masculinist group that forced young girls, many of them minors, to perform sexual acts and in some cases tortured them.

Most of the dozens of victims of the group led by Rane were American girls, the court was told.
法院被告知，由拉内领导的该组织的数十名受害者中，大多数是美国女孩，其中许多年龄未满15岁。该男性至上主义组织的其他年轻男性成员来自美国、印度、德国和新西兰。
Many were aged under 15. Other young male members of the masculinist group were from the United States, India, Germany and New Zealand.
目前年龄在18至21岁之间的六名女孩提出了正式指控。检察官表示，约有20名受害者已被确认身份，但其他受害者无法联系上。
Six of the girls, now aged between 18 and 21, made official complaints. About 20 victims were identified but others could not be contacted, prosecutors said.
经过为期五天的审判（主要为非公开审理），法院认定拉内犯有相关罪行，尤其是作为有组织团伙的一部分实施的敲诈勒索，并伴有对受害者实施酷刑和野蛮行为的加重情节。
After five days of hearings, mainly behind closed doors, the court found Rane guilty of offences, notably extortion committed as part of an organised gang, with the aggravating circumstances of acts of torture and barbarity perpetrated on the victims.
检察官称，所有女孩都是被“CVLT”组织引诱的，该组织以虚无主义、种族主义、反犹太主义、纳粹美学和价值观为驱动力，并对女权主义者和LGBTQ+群体充满仇恨。
Prosecutors said all of the girls were lured by the "CVLT" group that was driven by nihilism, racism, antisemitism, Nazi aesthetics and values, and the hatred of feminists and the LGBTQ+ community.
该组织在新冠疫情之前，通过Discord平台开始活动，拉内是其领导人。
The group became active ahead of the Covid-19 pandemic on the Discord platform with Rane as its leader.
这名印度人前往法国，在南部城市昂蒂布（Antibes）的一所商业学校学习，之后成为了一名体育教练。
The Indian went to France to study at a commercial school in the southern town of Antibes before becoming a sports coach.
该组织通过在线论坛挑选脆弱的受害者，并说服她们发送裸体照片。如果受害者不满足他们的要求，这些男子就威胁要告诉她们的家人和学校朋友。
Vulnerable victims were picked out in online forums and persuaded to send nude images. The men threatened to tell their families and school friends if they did not give in to their demands.
据调查人员称，许多受害者是黑人或犹太人，她们被迫进行性行为，或用刀具自残，包括在皮肤上刻下施虐者的名字或纳粹万字符。
According to investigators, many of the girls were black or Jewish and they were forced to engage in sexual acts or to self-harm with knives, including scoring the names of their tormentors or a Nazi swastika into their skin.
现场伴随着这些自称为“战争领主”的男子的侮辱和嘲讽。一名26岁的美国团体成员因2021年强奸一名12岁儿童而在美国被监禁。
The scenes were accompanied by insults and jeers from the men, who called themselves "war lords". One 26-year-old American group member has been jailed in the United States for the 2021 rape of a 12-year-old.
拉恩最初于2021年在法国被捕。美国当局提供了有关他在“CVLT”团体中领导地位的信息，以及他曾如何炫耀自己实现“施虐欲”的渴望。
Rane was first arrested in 2021 in France. US authorities passed on information about his leadership in the "CVLT" group and how he had vaunted his desire to fullfil his "sadism".
美国的一个组织——国家失踪和受剥削儿童中心——最早于2020年对“CVLT”发出警告，当时他们在网上发现了令人不安的图片，其中一名12岁女孩的皮肤上刻有“罗汉”这个名字。
A US group, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, first rang alarm bells over "CVLT" in 2020 after discovering disturbing images of a 12-year-old online with the name "Rohan" scored into her skin.
尽管一些站出来的美国受害者请求将拉恩的案件公之于众以儆效尤，但应美国方面的要求，法国的听证会仍然不公开进行。法院被告知，受害者、证人甚至一些美国检察官都受到了威胁。美国当局表示，一旦拉恩在法国服完刑期，他们将寻求将其引渡。
The French hearings remained closed following a US request, despite requests from some of the American victims who came forward that a public example be made of Rane's case. The court was told that threats had been made to the victims, witnesses and even some US prosecutors. US authorities have indicated that they will seek Rane's extradition once his sentence in France is served.
