Indonesia's constitutional court has ruled the three men convicted in the 2002 Bali bombings and sentenced to death may be executed by firing squad, quashing their claim it is inhumane and against the constitution.
印度尼西亚的宪法法庭裁决说，因2002年巴厘岛爆炸案而被判死刑的三名男子可以交由行刑队枪决。这一裁决击碎了他们关于死刑执行的方式非人道和违反宪法的指责。
The constitutional court also dismissed a request by the Bali bombers to be beheaded instead of shot, which their lawyers argue is a more humane method of execution.
宪法法庭还驳回了关于以斩首取代枪决的方式处决巴厘爆炸案制造者的要求。他们的律师辩解说，斩首是更人道的处决方式。
The three bombers: Amrozi Nurhasyim, Ali Gufron, and Imam Samudra, have been sentenced to death for the 2002 Bali bombings that claimed the lives of 202 people, many of them foreign tourists.
阿姆鲁兹·努尔哈希姆、阿里·古弗隆和伊玛目·萨穆德拉因为在2002年制造导致202人丧生的巴厘岛爆炸事件而被判死刑。那次事件遇难者中有许多是外国人。
Presiding judge Mohammad Mahfud says the pain generated by a firing squad is a natural part of the execution process and not torture, as claimed by the bombers' lawyers.
该案审判长穆罕默德·马赫富德说，由枪决所造成的痛苦是处决过程中的自然部分，不是这些爆炸制造者的律师所说的折磨。
He says there is no justification for the request and that the court has rejected it.
他说，无从证明这是个正当的要求，所以法庭予以驳回。
The three bombers, who are part of the regional terrorist group Jemaah Islamiyah, have exhausted all appeals and are expected to be executed soon.
这三名属于区域性恐怖组织伊斯兰祈祷团的爆炸案犯已经用尽了所有申诉，预计不久就会被处决。
In an unusual announcement, the attorney general said he will give more details about the timing of the executions, this Friday.
总检察长在一个不同寻常的声明中说，他将在星期五提供有关处决时间的具体情况。
Indonesia carries out executions by firing squad, usually late at night and without giving prior notice to the public.
印度尼西亚由行刑队执行死刑。执行时间通常在深夜，也不会事先发布公告。
A lawyer for the bombers, Wirawan Adnan, says he will respect the court's decision.
这些爆炸制造者的律师之一比拉万·阿德南说，他们将尊重法庭的裁决。
"We have to respect the decision. This is because this is a highly respected court and we have to respect the decision," Wirawan said. "We do have our disappointment. But, with that being said, we still respect the constitution and again this is our petition for the constitution, not necessarily for Amrozi, it's for the interest of the constitution."
他说：“我们必须尊重这个裁决。因为这是相当有威望的法庭。所以我们不得不尊重这个裁决。我们当然失望。但是，正如我所说的，我们仍然尊重宪法，再说一次，这是我们针对宪法提出的申诉，不完全是为了阿姆鲁兹，而是为了宪法的利益。”
The three Bali bombers vow their followers will avenge their execution, but most terrorist experts agree Jemaah Islamiyah is no longer capable of launching major terrorist attacks.
这三名巴厘爆炸案制造者扬言说，他们的追随者会对他们遭处决而进行报复。但是多数恐怖问题专家都认为，伊斯兰祈祷团已经没有能力发动重大恐怖袭击了。
Also on Tuesday, police raided a house in Jakarta seizing weapons and bomb-making materials from the site, but did not give further details.
此外，警察星期二突袭了雅加达的一座房屋，在那里缴获了武器和制造炸弹的材料。但是警方没有提供更多详情。 |
