伦敦10月22日电——公园里的春天。灰蒙蒙的天空。一名戴着蓝色针织帽、背着阿迪达斯双肩包的年轻男子沿着小路走着。两名身强力壮的安全特工从一辆面包车里冲出来，将他按倒在人行道上。
LONDON, Oct 22 - Springtime in a park. Grey sky. A young man in a blue knitted hat and Adidas backpack walks down a path. Two burly security agents spring from a van and pin him to the pavement.
“你叫什么名字？”一个用英语发出的声音问道，同时一只戴着手套的手将这名男子的脸转向镜头。
"What is your name?" asks a voice in English as a gloved hand holds the man's face towards the camera.
“达芬·阿德里安·凯尔乔（David Adrian Kercso），”他迅速回答道。他来自哪里？“罗马尼亚。罗马尼亚。”这段由俄罗斯联邦安全局（FSB）发布并经由国家媒体播出的视频，声称展示了凯尔乔被捕的画面。现年23岁的凯尔乔是一名罗马尼亚公民，在英国长大，今年早些时候因替乌克兰间谍罪被判处15年监禁。
"David Adrian Kercso," he swiftly responds. Where is he from? "Romania. Romania." The video, released by Russia's FSB security service and published by state media, purports to show the arrest of Kercso, now 23, a Romanian citizen who grew up in England and was sentenced earlier this year to 15 years for spying for Ukraine.
路透社未能核实凯尔乔案中的所有证据。但显而易见的是，这段逮捕视频并非其所声称的那样：路透社对该视频及其拘留法院记录的分析显示，在视频制作时，他已经处于俄罗斯的关押之中数月之久。
Reuters has not been able to verify all of the evidence in Kercso's case. But what is clear is that the arrest video is not what it purports to be: Reuters analysis of the video and of court records of his detention shows that at the time it was made he had already been in Russian custody for months.
这段视频拍摄于俄罗斯境内南部城市索契的一个公园里。但凯尔乔被捕的消息最初是由邻国格鲁吉亚的分离主义地区、位于边境另一侧的亲俄阿布哈兹分裂分子在别处宣布的。在他首次出庭的前一天，他们发布了他在其关押之中的另一段视频。
It was filmed in a park inside Russia, in the southern city of Sochi. But Kercso's arrest was first announced elsewhere, by pro-Russian separatists across the border in Abkhazia, a breakaway region of neighbouring Georgia, who released their own video of him in their custody the day before he first turned up in a Russian court.
联邦安全局没有回应本报道的置评请求，其中包括它为何要发布一段描绘一名已经处于关押之中的嫌疑人所谓逮捕过程的视频。
The FSB did not respond to requests for comment for this story, including why it would release a video depicting the purported arrest of a suspect who was already in custody.
有关置评请求也被发送给了阿布哈兹分裂分子的国家安全局（SGB）、俄罗斯驻伦敦大使馆以及罗马尼亚和乌克兰外交部。各方均未作出回应。
Requests for comment were also sent to the Abkhazian separatists' SGB security agency, the Russian embassy in London, the Romanian and Ukrainian foreign ministries. None replied.
对凯尔乔的家人来说，联邦安全局这段摆拍逮捕的视频只是他们自始至终感到震惊的故事中的又一个离奇转折。他们称，凯尔乔是被引诱到黑海海岸去追求他在网上结识的一名女子。他希望对自己的定罪提起上诉。
To Kercso's family, who say he was lured to the Black Sea coast to pursue a romance with a woman he had met online, the FSB video of a staged arrest is just another bizarre turn in a story that alarmed them from the outset. He hopes to lodge an appeal against his conviction.
“我告诉过他不要去那里，因为那里非常危险，因为那是一场战争，”他的母亲朱莉娅·克尔切索（Julia Kercso）对路透社表示，“但他从来不听我的。” 母亲曾警告他不要去2023年底，克尔切索住在伦敦以西的英国城市雷丁，在一家电子产品回收公司工作，当时他在网上首次结识了一名名叫瓦莱里娅（Valeria）的女子。
"I told him to not go there because it's very dangerous, because it's a war," his mother Julia Kercso told Reuters. "And he never listened to me yet." MOTHER WARNED HIM NOT TO GO In late 2023, Kercso was living in the English city of Reading, west of London, working for a company that recycles electronics, when he first connected online with a woman called Valeria.
她来自阿布哈兹，那是格鲁吉亚黑海沿岸风景如画的山区狭长地带，自20世纪90年代初以来一直由分裂势力控制。
She was from Abkhazia, a picturesque sliver of Georgia's mountainous Black Sea coast that has been in the hands of separatists since the early 1990s.
一段网恋迅速发展，据他的家人称，2024年8月，他经由土耳其前往那里与她见面。
An online romance blossomed, and his family says he travelled via Turkey in August 2024 to meet her.
路透社从其家人处获得了瓦莱里娅的联系方式，但发送给她的置评请求未收到回复。
Reuters obtained contact information for Valeria from the family but did not receive a reply to requests sent to her for comment.
根据克尔切索对家人讲述的情况，两人在索契会面，几天后越境进入阿布哈兹，克尔切索在那里度过了整个秋天。但他的母亲表示，随着他开始盘缠用尽，这段关系恶化了，他告诉家人自己将回家。
According to Kercso's accounts to his family, the couple met up in Sochi, and after a few days crossed the border into Abkhazia, where Kercso stayed through the autumn. But his mother said the relationship deteriorated as he began to run short of money, and he told his family he would return home.
他回家的行程原定于2024年11月28日，但他从未抵达。那天，他停止接听电话和回复消息。在随后从监狱寄出的信件中，克尔切索表示，正是在那一天他在阿布哈兹被捕。
His trip back was planned for November 28, 2024, but he never arrived. That day, he stopped answering phone calls and messages. In subsequent letters from prison, Kercso said that was the day he was arrested in Abkhazia.
克尔切索被捕的首次消息是在两周后由阿布哈兹分裂主义当局发布的，他们于12月13日发布了一段视频，显示他们自己的SGB安全部门人员押送这名年轻男子从一辆汽车走向一栋建筑。
The first announcement of Kercso's arrest came two weeks later from the Abkhazian separatist authorities, who released a video on December 13 depicting their own SGB security service leading the young man from a car into a building.
画面显示他承认自己曾与乌克兰情报部门联系，并被告知用无人机拍摄阿布哈兹的军事设施。
He was shown confessing that he had been in contact with Ukrainian intelligence and had been told to film Abkhazian military sites with a drone.
克尔切索在信中表示，在阿布哈兹录制的最初那段供述视频是由一份他被扣押者命令背诵的台词组成的。分裂分子告诉他，只要他在镜头前背诵这段话，他就会被送回家。然而他写道，相反他被带到边境，并被移交给俄罗斯联邦安全局（FSB）关押。
In his letters, Kercso says that initial confession videotaped in Abkhazia had consisted of a text he had been ordered to memorise by his captors. The separatists told him that if he recited it on camera he would be sent home. But instead, he wrote, he was brought to the border and transferred into the custody of the Russian FSB.
阿布哈兹人发布视频的第二天，根据网上可查的法院记录，克尔奇索确实已被俄罗斯羁押，并于12月14日出现在索契霍斯蒂斯基区法院的法官面前。
The day after the Abkhazians released their video, Kercso was indeed in Russian custody, appearing before a judge at Sochi's Khostinsky District Court on December 14, according to court records available online.
这是未来四个月内登记的10次出庭中的第一次，他在俄罗斯的拘留在此期间大约每两周延长一次。从狱中带出拍摄“抓捕”克尔奇索在信中表示，那段摆拍的俄罗斯“抓捕”视频于4月中旬在索契拍摄，当时他已在阿布哈兹被捕、被移交给俄罗斯并在那里关押了四个月。黎明前后，他在狱中被俄罗斯联邦安全局官员叫醒，随后被带到附近的一个地点进行拍摄。
It was the first of 10 court appearances that would be registered over the next four months, at which his detention in Russia would be extended roughly every two weeks. TAKEN FROM JAIL TO FILM 'ARREST' In his letters, Kercso says that the staged Russian video of his "arrest" was filmed in mid-April in Sochi, after he had already been captured in Abkhazia, transferred to Russia and held there for four months. He was awakened in jail around dawn by FSB officers who took him to a nearby location to film it.
路透社对该视频的分析与这一说法一致。虽然无法确定具体日期，但视频中清晰可见大量绿叶，表明它是春季开始后拍摄的，不可能在他自12月以来记录在10次索契出庭中的四个月拘留开始之前拍摄。
Reuters analysis of the video is consistent with this account. Though the exact date cannot be established, ample green foliage is clearly visible, showing it was filmed after the start of spring, and could not have been filmed before he began the four months of detention documented in his 10 Sochi court appearances since December.
视频的拍摄地点——索契马采斯特河沿岸的一片狭长公园绿地——可以通过肉眼可见的特征来确定。其中包括小径布局、桥墩、路灯、树木、草地和一堵墙，所有这些都与该地区的档案和卫星图像相符。
The location - a strip of parkland along Sochi's Matsesta River - can be established from visible features. These include the pathway layout, a bridge pillar, lamp posts, trees, a grassy strip and a wall, all of which match archive and satellite imagery of the area.
熟悉此案的俄罗斯律师叶夫根尼·斯米尔诺夫表示，俄罗斯联邦安全局强迫嫌疑人在被拘留很久之后拍摄戏剧性的抓捕场景是很常见的。
Evgeny Smirnov, a Russian lawyer familiar with the case, said it was common for the FSB to compel suspects to film dramatic arrest scenes long after they are detained.
“我们在几十起案件中都见过这种情况，被拘留数月的人被带到城市街道、森林或火车站，以便拍摄一段摆拍的抓捕视频，”他说。
"We have seen this in dozens of cases where individuals detained months earlier are taken to a city street, a forest, or a train station so that a staged arrest video can be filmed," he said.
克尔奇索在信中称，被移交给俄罗斯后的几个月里，他遭到殴打、单独关押和酷刑折磨。路透社无法独立核实这些指控。
Kercso says in his letters that in the months following his transfer to Russia he was beaten, held in isolation and tortured. Reuters could not independently verify those allegations.
联邦安全局在对其判处刑罚时表示，他在2024年夏天向乌克兰情报机构传输了索契俄罗斯防空系统的位置。该机构发布的视频显示，他承认了这一指控。克尔乔表示，这一供词同样是遭到逼供得出的。
When he was sentenced, the FSB said he had transmitted the location of Russian air-defence systems in Sochi to a Ukrainian intelligence agency in the summer of 2024. Video released by the agency showed him confessing to that charge. Kercso says that confession was also coerced.
“这一切都没有发生，他们无缘无故地偷走了我的人生，伪造了一切，”他写道。他在狱中学会了俄语，深深地思念着家人，并梦想着回家。
"None of that happened, they stole my life for no reason and fabricated everything," he wrote. He has learned Russian in prison, misses his family deeply and dreams of returning home.
“现在我知道，来这里是个巨大的错误，”他说。“我被爱情冲昏了头脑，没有看到危险的信号。”路透社
"Now I know that coming here was a huge mistake," he said. "I was blinded by love and didn't see the warning signs." REUTERS
