马来西亚前总理纳吉布·拉扎克在与其相关的第二起贪污案审判中，试图暂缓执行其15年的监禁判决，但未能成功。
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak has lost a bid to suspend his 15-year jail sentence in his second graft trial linked to the 1MDB scandal.
马来西亚吉隆坡——周三，马来西亚前总理纳吉布·拉扎克申请暂缓执行其15年的腐败刑罚的请求被驳回。
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak on Wednesday lost a bid to delay the enforcement of a 15-year jail sentence for corruption.
现年73岁的纳吉布自2022年8月起因涉及1MDB国家投资基金的腐败案件而入狱。该案件涉及对该基金的巨额盗用行为，引发了全国范围的愤怒，并导致他长期执政的政党垮台。
Najib, 73, has been imprisoned since August 2022 in a corruption case linked to the multibillion-dollar looting of the 1MDB state investment fund that outraged the nation and caused the downfall of his long-ruling party.
去年，他在另一起更严重的贪污案中再次被判有罪，被判处15年监禁及114亿林吉特（约合28亿美元）的罚款。他被认定滥用职权并从事洗钱活动，涉案资金超过7亿美元被转入他的银行账户。根据判决，这一新刑罚将在他完成当前刑期（2028年8月）后生效。
Last year he was convicted and sentenced to another 15 years and fined 11.4 billion ringgit ($2.8 billion) in a second, bigger graft trial tied to the 1MDB fund. He was found guilty of abuse of power and money laundering related to over $700 million channeled into his bank accounts from the fund. That sentence was due to take effect after he completes his current sentence in August 2028.
高等法院周三以“该申请缺乏法律依据”为由，驳回了纳吉布的暂缓执行判决的请求。纳吉布的律师穆罕默德·沙菲·阿卜杜拉表示，他们将向更高级别的法院提出上诉。
The High Court on Wednesday dismissed his application to postpone the enforcement of his second sentence, saying there was no merit. Najib’s lawyer Muhammad Shafee Abdullah said they would challenge the decision in a higher court.
纳吉布在2009年上任后创立了1MDB发展基金。调查人员称，至少有45亿美元从该基金中被盗，并通过美国及其他国家的银行账户被纳吉布的关联人士洗钱。
Najib set up the 1MDB development fund shortly after taking office in 2009. Investigators say at least $4.5 billion was stolen from the fund and laundered by Najib’s associates through layers of bank accounts in the U.S. and other countries.
2018年，纳吉布领导的政府在历史性选举中落败后，他因1MDB丑闻面临多项贪污指控而被起诉。2020年，他因滥用职权、渎职以及涉及SRC国际公司（1MDB的前下属机构）的洗钱行为被判处12年监禁及2.1亿林吉特（约合5150万美元）的罚款。2022年，该国最高法院维持了这一判决，纳吉布随即入狱服刑。
After his government was ousted in a historic election in 2018, Najib was taken to court to face multiple graft charges over the 1MDB scandal. He was originally sentenced to 12 years in prison and fined 210 million ringgit ($51.5 million) in 2020 for abuse of power, criminal breach of trust and money laundering involving 42 million ringgit ($10.3 million) channeled into his bank accounts from SRC International, a former unit of 1MDB. He went to prison after the country’s top court upheld his conviction in 2022.
纳吉布为处理不当丑闻道歉，但否认有任何不法行为，声称自己是被流氓银行家误导。
Najib has apologized for mishandling the scandal but denied any wrongdoing, alleging he was misled by rogue bankers.
2024年1月，由当时的国王主持的特赦委员会将他的刑期减半至六年，并将罚金减至5000万林吉特（约合1200万美元）。他正在向上级法院就第二宗案件的定罪提出上诉。
In January 2024, the Pardons Board chaired by the then-king halved his sentence to six years and reduced his fine to 50 million ringgit ($12 million). He is appealing his conviction in the second case at a higher court.
上个月，马来西亚现任国王苏丹·易卜拉欣·伊斯坎达尔授予纳吉布“有条件特赦”。如果他缴纳法院判处的5000万林吉特罚金，将被允许在2028年8月23日前在软禁中服完第一宗案件的剩余刑期。
Last month, Malaysia’s current king Sultan Ibrahim Iskandar granted a “conditional pardon” for Najib. He will be allowed to serve the remainder of his first prison term under house arrest until Aug. 23, 2028, if he pays the 50 million ringgit fine imposed by the court.
纳吉布的律师表示，由于他的银行账户和资产被政府冻结，他无力缴纳罚金。沙菲说正在筹集资金，并称一旦软禁结束，如果届时未能获得第二宗案件刑期的暂缓执行，纳吉布将被送回监狱。
Najib’s lawyers have said he wasn’t able to pay as his bank accounts and assets have been frozen by the government. Shafee said funds are being raised, and that once the house arrest ends Najib will be sent back to prison if they fail to obtain a suspension of the second sentence by then.
尽管已被定罪，纳吉布在其所属的巫统党内仍有影响力，该党现属于安瓦尔在2022年大选后组建的团结政府。
Despite his conviction, Najib still holds clout in his party, the United Malays National Organization, which is now part of Anwar’s unity government that took power after the 2022 elections.
