印度尼西亚开展了两次重大缉毒行动，逮捕19人，缴获数吨毒品。
Indonesia has carried out two major drug operations, arresting 19 people and seizing tons of narcotics.
印度尼西亚勿拉湾——印度尼西亚当局官员周五表示，印尼在亚齐查获1.2吨液态甲基苯丙胺，并在苏门答腊附近海域拦截了一艘载有1.16吨氯胺酮的船只，这两次重大缉毒行动均已完成。
BINSAR BAKKARA BELAWAN, Indonesia — Authorities in Indonesia have seized 1.2 tons of liquid methamphetamine in Aceh and intercepted a vessel carrying 1.16 tons of ketamine off Sumatra in two major drug operations, officials said Friday.
印尼国家警察总长苏尤迪·阿里奥·塞托将军表示，当局周三突袭了亚齐省皮迪县的一处秘密毒品加工厂，缴获约1.2吨液态甲基苯丙胺，并逮捕了11名嫌疑人——其中9名印尼人、2名中国公民。
Authorities raided a clandestine drug laboratory in Pidie regency, Aceh province, on Wednesday, seizing about 1.2 tons of liquid methamphetamine and arresting 11 suspects — nine Indonesians and two Chinese nationals — National Police Chief Gen. Suyudi Ario Seto said.
塞托周五前往亚齐，此前他指挥了另一次行动，在邻近的北苏门答腊省勿拉湾港查获1.16吨盐酸氯胺酮，价值约3.48万亿印尼盾（约合2.1亿美元）。
Seto traveled to Aceh on Friday after overseeing a separate operation that netted 1.16 tons of ketamine hydrochloride valued at about 3.48 trillion rupiah ($210 million) at Belawan Port in neighboring North Sumatra province.
“我们今天缴获的证据不仅仅是统计数字上的成果，而是数百万年轻人的生命得到了拯救，”塞托在勿拉湾举行的新闻发布会上说。
“The evidence we seized today is not merely a statistical achievement, but millions of young lives that have been saved,” Seto told a news conference in Belawan.
该甲基苯丙胺加工厂设在Beureueh Dua村两栋相连的店屋内。调查人员认为该加工厂与一个国际贩毒网络有关，正在调查其与中国、马来西亚和印度尼西亚的犯罪集团，以及东南亚“金三角”地区犯罪团伙之间可能存在的联系。“金三角”长期以来一直与大规模毒品生产和贩运相关联。
The methamphetamine laboratory operated from two adjoining shophouses in Beureueh Dua village. Investigators believe it was linked to an international drug trafficking network and are examining possible connections to syndicates in China, Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as criminal groups in Southeast Asia’s Golden Triangle, a region long associated with large-scale narcotics production and trafficking.
周五早些时候，当局宣布在“MT Global 168”号油轮上查获这批氯胺酮。此前，情报人员发现该船在穿越马六甲海峡和安达曼海时的航线存在异常。
Earlier on Friday, authorities announced the ketamine seizure from the tanker MT Global 168 after intelligence officers detected irregularities in its route through the Malacca Strait and the Andaman Sea.
一个联合执法小组周三在丹戎巴莱阿萨汉附近海域拦截了该船，并将其押送至勿拉湾港，执法人员在那里发现了58袋盐酸氯胺酮。警方逮捕了8名船员——其中7名印尼人、1名台湾人。
A joint enforcement team intercepted the ship off Tanjungbalai Asahan on Wednesday and escorted it to Belawan Port, where officers found 58 sacks containing ketamine hydrochloride. Police arrested eight crew members — seven Indonesians and one Taiwanese national.
塞托说：“这两起接连发生的行动凸显出，印度尼西亚仍然是国际贩毒组织的主要目标。”
“The back-to-back operations underscore how Indonesia remains a major target for international drug trafficking organizations,” Seto said.
调查人员正在追查这两起案件中的原材料、贩运路线和金融网络，并努力查明组织者。
Investigators are tracing the raw materials, trafficking routes and financial networks in both cases and seeking to identify the organizers.
甲基苯丙胺是一种高度成瘾性的兴奋剂。贩运者通常以液态形式运输或制造甲基苯丙胺，然后再将其加工成晶体出售。氯胺酮是一种分离性麻醉剂，用于人类和兽医医学，同时也被滥用为消遣性毒品。
Methamphetamine is a highly addictive stimulant. Traffickers often transport or manufacture it in liquid form before processing it into crystals for sale. Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic used in human and veterinary medicine that is also abused as a recreational drug.
此次查获仅两个月前，印度尼西亚当局在新加坡附近巴淡岛外海拦截的一艘船上查获了约2.6吨液态甲基苯丙胺，并拘留了10名涉嫌参与国际贩运网络的缅甸国民。
The seizures came just two months after Indonesian authorities seized about 2.6 tons of liquid methamphetamine from a ship intercepted off Batam island near Singapore and detained 10 Myanmar nationals suspected of involvement in an international trafficking network.
尽管印度尼西亚有着严格的禁毒法律——根据该法律，被定罪的走私者可能面临行刑队枪决——该国仍被视为东南亚主要的毒品贩运枢纽。联合国毒品和犯罪问题办公室表示，国际犯罪集团继续以该国庞大而年轻的市场为目标。
Indonesia is considered a major drug trafficking hub in Southeast Asia despite strict narcotics laws, under which convicted smugglers can face execution by firing squad. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime says international syndicates continue to target the country’s large, youthful market.
