据印度新闻社“印度新闻社”报道,斯里兰卡反对党议员纳马尔·拉贾帕克萨周二在一起与印度公司拟建酒店项目有关的贿赂案中获准保释。不过,他将因另一起案件继续被羁押。

Sri Lankan opposition MP Namal Rajapaksa was granted bail on Tuesday in a bribery case linked to a proposed hotel project involving an Indian company, news agency Press Trust of India reported. However, he will remain in custody in a separate case.

科伦坡地方法院在考虑到其父母健康状况这一特殊情况后,批准了拉贾帕克萨的保释申请。拉贾帕克萨是前总统马欣达·拉贾帕克萨的长子,也是斯里兰卡人民阵线议员。

The Colombo Magistrate's Court granted Rajapaksa bail after considering the health of his parents as a special circumstance. Rajapaksa is the eldest son of former president Mahinda Rajapaksa and an MP from the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna.

拉贾帕克萨于9月29日因涉嫌于2013年收受7000万斯里兰卡卢比(约合21万美元)贿赂,以协助推动拟建酒店投资项目的审批而被捕。检方指控称,他在其父执政期间利用政治影响力加快了审批进程。

Rajapaksa was arrested on September 29 over allegations that he accepted a bribe of LKR 70 million, or about USD 210,000, in 2013 to help secure approvals for the proposed hotel investment. Prosecutors alleged that he used his political influence during his father's presidency to speed up the approval process.

克里希酒店公司董事长贾纳基·西里瓦德纳也因涉嫌行贿拉贾帕克萨而在该案中被捕。调查人员指控,她曾多次向其支付款项,以获取该项目的关键批准。据“印度新闻社”报道,她目前仍被羁押。

Krish Hotels chairperson Janaki Siriwardena was also arrested in the case for allegedly bribing Rajapaksa. Investigators alleged that she paid him on several occasions to secure key approvals for the project. She remains in custody, according to Press Trust of India.

拉贾帕克萨也是一名国际橄榄球运动员,曾于2016年接受过问询,并因涉嫌挪用克里希项目资金用于橄榄球推广而被起诉。他辩称这笔钱是2014年在科伦坡举办的国际七人制橄榄球赛的赞助款。这项预计耗资超过7.5亿美元的酒店项目目前仍处于停滞状态。

Rajapaksa, who is also an international rugby player, was questioned in 2016, and a case was filed against him over the alleged misuse of funds from the Krish project for rugby promotion. He has maintained that the money was sponsorship for an international rugby sevens tournament held in Colombo in 2014. The proposed hotel project, estimated to cost more than USD 750 million, remains stalled.

拉贾帕克萨将因另一起涉及斯里兰卡航空收购空客宽体客机的贿赂和洗钱案继续被羁押。指控涉及国家航空公司采购飞机时的一笔所谓贿赂,金额为1亿斯里兰卡卢比(约合30万美元)。

Rajapaksa will remain in custody in a separate case involving alleged bribery and money laundering in SriLankan Airlines' acquisition of wide-body Airbus aircraft. The allegations concern a purported bribe of LKR 100 million, or about USD 300,000, linked to the purchase by the national carrier.

调查贿赂或腐败委员会于9月4日在空客案中将其逮捕,随后他被收押候审。

The Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption arrested him on September 4 in the Airbus case, after which he was remanded in custody.

他在案件从地方法院移交后,于10月28日被提交至科伦坡高等法院的常设高等法院审判庭。法院已指示他于11月19日再次出庭。拉贾帕克萨家族及其政治盟友此前曾指控针对家族成员的法律程序是出于政治动机,而政府则为其反腐败行动进行了辩护。拉贾帕克萨已在酒店项目案中获得保释,但将因另一单独的空客案件继续被羁押。

He was produced before the Colombo High Court's Permanent High Court Trial-at-Bar on October 28 after the case was transferred from the magistrate's court. The court has directed that he be produced before it on November 19. The Rajapaksa family and its political allies have previously alleged that legal proceedings against family members are politically motivated, while the government has defended its anti-corruption drive. Rajapaksa has secured bail in the hotel project case but will remain in custody over the separate Airbus case.
