警方周三表示,一名在芝加哥郊区被捕的男子曾分享一份表达白人至上主义观点的文件,并概述了一项据称旨在实施大规模枪击的计划,可能瞄准印度教礼拜场所。

A man arrested in a Chicago suburb had shared a document expressing white supremacist views and outlined an alleged plan to carry out a mass shooting, potentially targeting a Hindu place of worship, police said on Wednesday.

警方称,帕拉廷(Palatine)居民、19岁的亚历山德罗斯·帕帕拉基斯(Alexandros Paporakis)因一名个人报告称收到他发来的令人担忧的电子通讯而在周日被捕。目前尚不清楚他是否已获得法律代理。

Alexandros Paporakis, 19, of Palatine, was arrested on Sunday after an individual reported receiving concerning electronic communications from him, Palatine police said. It was not immediately clear if he had legal representation.

警方表示,侦探们在帕帕拉基斯的住所执行了搜查令,缴获了一支步枪、多个装满弹匣的步枪弹匣以及数百发额外的步枪弹药。

Detectives had executed a search warrant at Paporakis' residence and recovered a rifle, multiple loaded rifle magazines and hundreds of rounds of additional rifle ammunition, police said.

帕拉廷警方补充称:“在缴获的物品中,有一件战术背心,内含防弹衣和一个展示与白人至上极端主义相关图像的补丁。”

"Among the recovered items was a tactical vest containing body armor and a patch displaying imagery associated with white supremacist extremism," Palatine police added.

侦探们审查了归属于帕帕拉基斯的电子通讯和一份文件——《我为何而战:也称(奥罗拉枪手宣言)》(“Why I Fought: A.K.A.: (Aurora Shooter's Manifesto)”),该文件包含表达白人至上和极端主义意识形态的陈述,包括针对南亚裔个体的暴力暗示,尤其是印度裔人士。

Detectives examined electronic communications and a document attributed to Paporakis - "Why I Fought: A.K.A.: (Aurora Shooter's Manifesto)" - which had statements expressing white supremacist and extremist ideologies, including references to violence directed toward individuals of South Asian heritage, particularly those of Indian descent.

侦探认为,帕帕拉基斯可能正计划在10月11日周日实施袭击,可能瞄准帕拉廷西南约40英里(65公里)处的奥罗拉市一处印度教礼拜场所。

Detectives believe Paporakis may have been planning to carry out an attack on Sunday, October 11, potentially targeting a Hindu place of worship in Aurora, around 40 miles (65 km) southwest of Palatine.

警方表示:“然而,具体的目标地点尚未得到证实,目前仍在调查中。”并补充称,FBI正协助调查。

"However, the specific intended location has not been confirmed and remains under investigation," the police said, adding the FBI was assisting in the probe.

警方称,在咨询了库克县检察官办公室(Cook County State's Attorney's Office)的检察官后,帕帕拉基斯面临“制造恐怖威胁”和非法持有武器的重罪指控。

Police said that following consultation with prosecutors from the Cook County State's Attorney's Office, Paporakis faced felony charges of "making a terrorist threat" and unlawful weapon possession.

警方表示,嫌疑人周三出席了拘留听证会,法官下令将其羁押,其下一次庭审定于10月30日举行。

The suspect appeared for a detention hearing on Wednesday where a judge ordered him detained, according to police, who said his next court appearance is scheduled for October 30.

人权倡导者表示,近年来,由于反移民言论和政策的上升以及白人至上主义意识形态的增多等因素,美国对南亚人的仇恨有所上升。

Human rights advocates have said that hate against South Asians has spiked in the US in recent years due to factors such as rising anti-immigration rhetoric and policies as well as a rise in white supremacist ideology.
