乔案凸显澳洲的移民政策
对难民不人道待遇是不能接受的威慑手段
While the world number one tennis player, Novak Djokovic,
spent four nights detained at an immigration hotel in Melbourne
before a judge ordered his release, his case became a jolting
reminder of Australia’s abusive treatment of refugees and asylum
seekers who have been held in the country’s immigration detention
system for years.
虽然世界排名第一的网球运动员诺瓦克·德约科维奇在墨尔本的一家移民酒店
被拘留了四个晚上,随后法官下令将他释放,但他的案件令人震惊地提醒人们
澳大利亚虐待被关押在该国的难民和寻求庇护者已非常多年。
Since July 2013 the Australian government has forcibly transferred more
than 3,000 asylum seekers and refugees to offshore camps in the countries
of Papua New Guinea and Nauru, where they suffered severe abuse, inhumane
treatment, and medical neglect. The human toll of these cruel policies
has been huge. Children in offshore camps, whom a team of pediatricians
described as among the most traumatized they had ever seen, stopped
speaking and wanted to end their lives.
自 2013 年 7 月以来,澳洲政府已将 3,000 多名寻求庇护者和难民
强行转移到位于巴纽和瑙鲁附近的海外难民营,在那里他们遭受了严重的虐待、
不人道的待遇和医疗忽视。这些残酷政策造成的许多人员伤亡。
海上难民营中的儿童,一组儿科医生称 他们是他们见过的最受创伤的人,
他们停止说话,甚至想要结束自己的生命。
Twelve people have died in Australia’s offshore detention system,
including from murder, medical neglect, and suicide.
These include Omid Masoumali, an Iranian refugee who set himself
on fire during a United Nations monitoring visit in protest against
his indefinite detention, and Hamid Kehazaei, another Iranian,
who died after a minor infection in his leg became septic,
having been denied needed medical care.
12 人在澳大利亚的离岸拘留系统中死亡,包括死于谋杀、医疗疏忽和自杀。
其中包括伊朗难民奥米德·马苏马利(Omid Masoumali),
他在联合国监测访问期间自焚以抗议他被无限期拘留;
另一名伊朗人哈米德·克哈扎伊(Hamid Kehazaei)因腿部感染变成败血症而死亡,
期间他的医疗照护需求被拒绝。
In a mainland immigration detention facility in Melbourne,
the 2-year-old daughter of Sri Lankan asylum seekers had to
have her baby teeth surgically removed after they rotted during
her time in detention.
在墨尔本的一个移民拘留所,一位斯里兰卡寻求庇护者的 2 岁女童在被拘留期间
因口腔溃烂才不得不通过手术拔除牙齿。
Australian politicians have long relied on “tough on borders” rhetoric
to win elections. This populist tactic has helped to ensure these
abusive policies have remained in place for as long as they have.
Inhumane treatment of refugees is not an acceptable nor a lawful policy
of deterrence.
长期以来,澳洲一直依靠“对边界强硬”的言论来赢得选举。
这种民粹主义有助于确保这边界政策一直存在。
对难民的不人道待遇既不是可接受的,也不是合法的威慑政策。
All Australians should voice their opposition to prolonged and
indefinite immigration detention, because while Djokovic may now be free,
hundreds of others are not.
所有澳洲人都应该反对长期和无限期的移民拘留,
因为虽然德约科维奇现在可能是自由的,但其他数百人却没有。

澳洲边境政策一直都很严格
我想人权团体要强调的是,对于非法入境者
乔科维奇可以打官司脱身,与无法发声的难民的差别待遇
