圣加仑，瑞士，10月26日——周一，瑞士一家法院裁定一名白俄罗斯前安全官员参与绑架商人阿纳托利·克拉索夫斯基罪名成立，克拉索夫斯基是白俄罗斯总统亚历山大·卢卡申科的反对者。
ST GALLEN, Switzerland, Oct 26 - A Swiss court on Monday found a former Belarusian security officer guilty over the abduction of businessman Anatoly Krasovsky, an opponent of Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko.
尤里·哈劳斯基曾承认参与了二十多年前对卢卡申科三名反对者的绑架，这三人后来均被杀害，但他在绑架白俄罗斯前内政部长尤里·扎哈连科一案中被判无罪。
Yuri Harauski, who has admitted involvement in the abductions more than two decades ago of three of Lukashenko's opponents who were later killed, was however acquitted over the kidnapping of former Belarusian Interior Minister Yuri Zakharenko.
法院表示，哈劳斯基现在面临在瑞士的两年缓刑，这一刑罚因其配合调查和全面认罪而有所减轻。
Harauski now faces two years on probation in Switzerland, a sentence that was reduced because of his cooperation and comprehensive confession, the court said.
人权组织表示，这一裁决是全球范围内首次对白俄罗斯安全部队成员作出的有罪判决。此前，两名受害者的女儿对2023年的无罪判决提出了上诉。
Rights groups say the ruling is the first conviction anywhere of a member of Belarus' security forces. It came after the daughters of two of the victims appealed his 2023 acquittal.
哈劳斯基最初在2019年接受德国之声采访时承认，1999年他在白俄罗斯一支名为SOBR的特种警察部队工作时，曾参与绑架三人。
Harauski had originally confessed in a Deutsche Welle interview in 2019 that while he was working in a special police unit called SOBR in Belarus in 1999, he had been involved in the abductions of three people.
三年前，瑞士一家法院裁定，哈劳斯基被指控的角色在法律上未得到证实，因为他随时间推移作出了相互矛盾的陈述。
A Swiss court had ruled three years ago that Harauski's alleged role had not been legally proven because he had made contradictory statements over time.
法院周一表示，哈劳斯基的供述可信，在克拉索夫斯基一案中，他对暴力绑架及随后杀害行为的意图和知情是明确的。法院称，在扎哈连科一案中，这一意图无法得到确认。
The court said on Monday that Harauski's confessions were credible and in the case of Krasovsky, his intent and knowledge of the violent abduction and subsequent killing were clear. In the case of Zakharenko this intent could not be established, it said.
首次此类定罪 “即使这只是部分胜利，这也是世界上首次对白俄罗斯安全部队成员作出的有罪判决，”人权组织“审判国际”创始人菲利普·格兰特说。该组织曾为克拉索夫斯基和扎哈连科的女儿提供支持。
FIRST SUCH CONVICTION "Even if it's a partial victory, it's the first conviction anywhere in the world of a member of the Belarusian security forces," said Philip Grant, founder of rights group Trial International, which had supported the daughters of Krasovsky and Zakharenko. The case is the first in which the Swiss courts, applying the principle of universal jurisdiction, have tried charges of enforced disappearance or alleged crimes committed in Belarus.
此案是瑞士法院首次适用普遍管辖权原则，审理强迫失踪指控或据称在白俄罗斯犯下的罪行。
Lukashenko's government has rejected criticism of its human rights record from the UN and rights groups, and denies holding political prisoners.
卢卡申科政府拒绝了联合国和人权组织对其人权记录的批评，并否认关押政治犯。
"An accountability gap has been closed," said Severin Walz, lawyer for the daughters of Zakharenko and Krasovsky.
扎哈连科和克拉索夫斯基女儿的律师塞韦林·瓦尔茨说：“问责的空白已被填补。我的当事人感到非常宽慰。”周一，哈劳斯基的律师未发表评论。该判决还可以再上诉一次，案件届时将提交瑞士联邦最高法院。
"My clients feel very relieved." There was no comment on Monday from Harauski's lawyer. The verdict could be appealed one more time, which would take the case to the Swiss Federal Supreme Court.
