约翰内斯堡 — — 南非总统西里尔·拉马福萨周五宣布，已解除该国国家警察局长法尼·马塞莫拉的停职。
JOHANNESBURG — South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has lifted the suspension of the country’s national police chief Fannie Masemola, his office announced on Friday.
马塞莫拉预计将于周一恢复职务。他在四月因涉嫌违反与一项据称存在腐败的警察合同相关的财务法律而被停职并被起诉。
Masemola is expected to resume his duties on Monday after he was suspended in April when he was charged with breaking finance laws related to an allegedly corrupt police contract. He was charged alongside other senior officers who are suspected of fraud, corruption and money laundering in connection with the contract, but those charges were dropped by the country’s National Prosecuting Authority in September this year.
他与其他几名高级警官一起被起诉，这些警官涉嫌在该合同中存在欺诈、腐败和洗钱行为，但这些指控于今年九月被该国国家检察署撤销。
It is alleged that some of the officers received bribes from the $21 million contract’s winning bidder.
据称，一些警官收到了该合同中标方的贿赂，该合同金额为2100万美元，用于为警察提供健康和福祉服务。
The contract was for providing health and well-being services to police officers.
“拉马福萨总统欢迎国家警察局长返回全职工作，并感谢中将普伦格·迪姆帕内在担任代理国家警察局长期间表现出色的服务，”拉马福萨周五在声明中表示。
“President Ramaphosa welcomes the National Police Commissioner on his return to his full duties and expresses his appreciation to Lieutenant-General Puleng Dimpane who served with distinction as Acting National Police Commissioner in the interim,” Ramaphosa said in statement on Friday.
马塞莫拉的停职发生在南非刑事司法系统接受由退休法官姆拜塞利·马德兰加主持的司法调查委员会审查期间，该委员会就警察内部广泛存在的腐败指控进行了调查。
Masemola’s suspension came as the country’s criminal justice system faced scrutiny at a judicial commission of inquiry chaired by retired Judge Mbuyiseli Madlanga, where wide-ranging allegation of corruption within the police have been made.
他恢复职务正值其前任副警察局长沙德拉克·西比亚因涉嫌腐败和性犯罪指控而辞职的同一周。西比亚被指控强奸一名18岁女性并对未成年人进行性诱导。此外，在调查委员会上还有指控称他与该国所谓犯罪网络的成员有关联。
His return to office comes in the same week that his former deputy police chief Shadrack Sibiya resigned from the police service amid allegations of corruption and sexual offense charges that he faces. He is accused of raping an 18-year old woman and sexually grooming a minor. There are also allegations made at the commission of inquiry that he has links to alleged members of criminal networks in the country.
西比亚目前被关押在监狱，关于他是否应获保释释放的裁决已被推迟至下周。西比亚否认所有指控。
He is currently in prison and a judgment on whether he should be released on bail has been postponed until next week. Sibiya denies the allegations.
