汉堡法院周四判处两名被控代表伊朗秘密服务部门策划袭击德国犹太领袖的男子多年监禁。
A Hamburg court on Thursday sentenced two men accused of plotting to target Jewish leaders in Germany on behalf of Iran's secret service to multiple years in prison.
两人均被认定犯有间谍罪和谋杀未遂罪。其中一名被告被判处四年半监禁，而另一名被告作为策划袭击的主谋，被判处八年半监禁。
Both were found guilty of espionage and attempted murder. One defendant was given a four-and-a-half year sentence, while the other received an eight-and-a-half year sentence as the mastermind of the planned attacks.
检察官称，其中一名被告是一名54岁的丹麦人，具有阿富汗血统，他直接接受了伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队海外分支——圣城旅的命令。
Prosecutors said that one defendant, a 54-year-old Dane with Afghan roots, had received his orders directly from Iran's al-Quds Brigades, the foreign arm of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.
据称，此人招募了他的同伙——一名居住在丹麦的43岁阿富汗男子，以执行其中一次袭击，或寻找能够执行袭击的人。这名43岁的男子还负责寻找可用于实施袭击的武器。
The man was said to have recruited his accomplice, a 43-year-old Afghan man living in Denmark, to carry out one of the attacks, or find someone who could. The 43-year-old was also tasked with finding a weapon with which to carry out one of the attacks.
据报道，除了针对两名知名人士外，这名54岁的男子还曾为在柏林的一家犹太食品店实施纵火袭击做准备。
Beyond targeting two high-profile individuals, the 54-year-old had reportedly made preparations for an arson attack on a kosher deli in Berlin.
两名被告于去年在丹麦城市奥胡斯被丹麦当局逮捕，并被引渡至德国。
The defendants were arrested by Danish authorities in the city of Aarhus last year and extradited to Germany.

法院认定，两人计划袭击的目标之一包括德国犹太人中央委员会主席约瑟夫·舒斯特。另一名潜在目标是绿党政治家、德以协会主席沃尔克·贝克。
Among the figures the pair planned to attack was Josef Schuster the president of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, the court found. Another prospective target was Green Party politician Volker Beck, president of the German-Israeli society.
在针对两人的指控公之于众后，贝克呼吁柏林驱逐伊朗大使及领事官员。
Beck called on Berlin to expel Iran's ambassador and consular officials after charges against the men were made public.
他表示：“在德国领土上，犹太人的生命以及对犹太民主国家的承诺，一再受到伊朗伊斯兰共和国政权的谋杀威胁和攻击。”
"Jewish life and a commitment to the Jewish and democratic state are repeatedly threatened with murder and attacked by the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran on German soil," he said.
丹麦当局实施逮捕后，德国外交部召见了伊朗大使。此举促使伊朗驻柏林大使馆发表声明，驳斥其所谓的“应伊朗敌人要求而提出的无端指控”。约瑟夫·舒斯特：“犹太人在德国的生活正蓬勃发展” 编辑：娜塔莉·穆勒和韦斯利·多克瑞 如果您信赖我们的团队提供的可靠报道，
