达喀尔，10月23日——国际特赦组织周五敦促塞拉利昂停止预期中的遣返行动，涉及三名从美国被驱逐出境的人。该组织表示，如果这三人被送回西非其他国家的原籍国，可能面临严重的侵犯人权行为。
DAKAR, Oct 23 - Amnesty International on Friday urged Sierra Leone to halt the expected repatriation of three people deported from the United States, saying they could face serious human rights violations if returned to their home countries elsewhere in West Africa.
- 该人权组织表示，多哥的阿巴洛·阿格巴、利比里亚的阿尔弗雷德·卡马拉和科特迪瓦的法图·特拉奥雷在美国生活均超过20年，10月12日被美国移民和海关执法局遣送至塞拉利昂，他们都有未满18岁的子女仍在美国。
• The rights group said Abalo Agba of Togo, Alfred Kamara of Liberia and Fatou Traore of Ivory Coast had each lived in the United States for more than 20 years when they were removed by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement to Sierra Leone on October 12, and that they all have children under 18 still in the US
- 他们此前在美国获得了名为“暂缓遣返”的保护，这意味着美国移民法官认定，如果被强制遣返回国，他们很可能面临酷刑或其他虐待。
• They had previously secured a form of protection in the US known as withholding of removal, meaning a US immigration judge found they were more likely than not to face torture or other abuses if forced home
- 自去年1月上任以来，特朗普政府已与多个非洲国家政府达成协议，这些国家同意接收来自其他国家的移民。
• Since taking office in January last year, the Trump administration has struck several deals with African governments that have agreed to accept migrants from other countries.
- 塞拉利昂与华盛顿达成协议，同意每年接收最多300名西非第三国国民。
• Sierra Leone reached an agreement with Washington to accept up to 300 West African third-country nationals annually
- 国际特赦组织周五表示，此前根据该协议被驱逐的移民已被迅速遣返回国，并批评其所谓的“旋转门”政策，即强制将人送回本国。
• Amnesty said on Friday that migrants previously deported under the deal had been quickly repatriated, and it criticised what it described as a "revolving door" policy of forcing people home
- 塞拉利昂政府发言人和美国国务院未立即回应置评请求。
• A Sierra Leone government spokesperson and the US State Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment REUTERS
