国际网络的头目，专门为娱乐而折磨和杀害猴子，已被判入狱。巴尔托什·波克莱克散布了“令人恐怖”的视频，这些视频售价高达数百英镑，并编写了动物应如何被伤害和杀害的剧本。
The ringleader of an international network dedicated to torturing and killing monkeys for entertainment has been jailed. Bartosz Poklek distributed "horrific" videos which sold for hundreds of pounds and wrote scripts for how the animals should be harmed and killed.
这名30岁的男子来自伦敦东南部的贝克斯利，他承认在2023年6月至2025年9月期间运营了一个“大规模猴子折磨网络”。他在伍尔维奇皇家法院被判处三年三个月监禁。
The 30-year-old from Bexley in south-east London had admitted running a "large-scale monkey torture ring" between June 2023 and September 2025. He was sentenced to three years and three months in prison at Woolwich Crown Court.
“作为律师或法官，我可以说，我一生中从未遇到如此令人震惊的动物虐待案件，”法官克里斯托弗·格鲁特对法庭说。
"It is no exaggeration to say that as a lawyer or as a judge I have never encountered such a horrific case of animal abuse in my life," Judge Christopher Grout told the court.
“存在一个卑劣的地下社区，他们憎恨猴子，尤其是婴儿猴子，并从看到这些猴子被折磨和杀害中获得乐趣。”法官说，根据2026年《量刑法》，波克莱克将在服刑约三分之一后获释，并呼吁对动物虐待判处更长的刑期，目前其最高刑期为五年。
"There is a vile underground community who have a hatred of monkeys, particularly baby monkeys, and take pleasure in seeing such monkeys being tortured and killed." The judge said Poklek would be released after serving about a third of his prison sentence under the Sentencing Act 2026, external, and called for longer sentences for animal abuse, which currently has a five-year maximum.
他补充道：“如果曾经有一个案例能证明法定的动物虐待最高刑期过低，那就是这个案例。”波克莱克在试图获取美国一起猴子折磨刑事案件的法庭文件时被捕。
He added: "If ever there was a case that demonstrates that the statutory maximum for animal cruelty is too low, this is it." Poklek was captured after he tried to get hold of court documents from a monkey torture criminal case in the US.
此次调查涉及英国国家野生动物犯罪单位、伦敦警察厅、西梅西亚警察以及美国国土安全部调查局和美国鱼类及野生动物管理局的官员。“卑劣的交易”波克莱克还认罪，涉及为牟利而发布淫秽视频，以及持有儿童不雅图片和持有氯胺酮。
The investigation involved British police from the National Wildlife Crime Unit, the Metropolitan Police, West Mercia Police, and officials from the US Homeland Security Investigations and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. 'Vile trade' Poklek also pleaded guilty to publishing obscene videos for gain, as well as possession of indecent images of children and possession of ketamine.
代表波克莱克的亚历克西娅·尼科尔对法庭表示，他“很难解释自己是如何卷入此事的”。
Alexia Nicol, representing Poklek, told the court he "finds it difficult to explain how he became involved in this".
阿德卢·奥杜索特，来自皇家检控署，表示：“巴托什·波克莱克是一个残忍贸易链中的关键环节，该贸易链监督并鼓励对猴子进行令人作呕的折磨。以这种方式对待脆弱动物是一种令人恐惧的行为，必须在发现的任何地方予以根除。
Adeolu Odusote, of the Crown Prosecution Service, said: "Bartosz Poklek was a key cog in a vile trade that oversaw and encouraged the sickening torture of monkeys. Treating vulnerable animals in this way is a horrifying practice that must be rooted out wherever it's found.
“今天的结果表明，皇家检控署将动用一切可用的权力，确保这些在线社区中虐待行为的帮凶无法躲藏其堕落和令人厌恶的行为，并将面临法律的全部制裁。”
"Today's result shows that the CPS will use every power available to ensure the enablers of abuse in these online communities can't hide from their depraved and abhorrent actions and face the full extent of the law."
