Rahul Gandhi gets 2 years in jail for 2019 Modi remark; his future as MP at stake

拉胡尔·甘地因2019年诽谤莫迪被判2年监禁；议员资格岌岌可危

SURAT: Congress’s Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi faces possible disqualification from Lok Sabha and a six-year bar on contesting elections after a district court in Gujarat’s Surat on Thursday sentenced him to two years in jail in a 2019 criminal defamation case filed by a BJP MLA over his remark at a poll rally in Karnataka’s Kolar: “How come all thieves have the Modi surname?”

Chief judicial magistrate HH Varma, who held Rahul guilty of criminal defamation under sections 499 and 500 of the IPC, granted him bail against a bond of Rs 15,000 and suspended the sentence for 30 days to allow him to appeal the verdict in a higher court. Sources in Delhi said that at a late-evening huddle, legal experts advised Rahul to appeal against the setback in the sessions court at Surat.

苏拉特：国大党议员拉胡尔·甘地现在面临着丧失国会议员资格，且6年不得参与竞选的可能。古吉拉特邦苏拉特地方法院周四判处拉胡尔·甘地有期徒刑两年，该诉讼案是由人民党议员提起的，称拉胡尔曾在卡纳塔克邦科拉尔的一次投票集会上说：”为什么所有的小偷都姓莫迪呢？”

首席法官HH Varma根据IPC第499条和第500条判处拉胡尔犯有刑事诽谤罪，批准他缴纳1.5万卢比的保释金获得保释，并将刑期缓期30天执行，拉胡尔可向更高一级法院提出上诉。德里消息人士称，法律专家建议拉胡尔对苏拉特法院提出上诉。

Many experts said, kicks in as soon as a member of Parliament or a state legislature is convicted of an offence punishable with a sentence of two years or more. This puts Rahul at risk of eviction from the electoral arena if the higher courts don’t overturn CJM Varma’s order.

许多专家表示，一旦议会或邦立法机构的议员被判有罪，将被判处两年或两年以上的监禁。如果高级法院不推番CJM Varma的判决，拉胡尔就将面临被驱逐出选举舞台的风险。

Petitioner Purnesh Modi, who is the MLA of Surat West, had said in his 2019 complaint that Rahul insulted crores of people with his remark.

Rahul’s lawyer Kirit Panwala pleaded for a milder sentence on the ground that his client didn’t intend to insult anyone. “The complainant has not suffered any kind of pain or loss, and the accused has never been found guilty of any crime before.” he told the court.

After his conviction, Rahul told the court that he had delivered the speech at Kolar in line with his duty and in public interest.

起诉人普尔内什·莫迪是西苏拉特的议员，他在2019年的诉状中称拉胡尔的言论侮辱了亿万人民。

拉胡尔的律师基里特·潘瓦拉请求从轻判决，理由是他的当事人并无意侮辱任何人。他在法庭上说：“原告并未遭受任何痛苦或损失，被告以前也从未被判犯有任何罪行。”

被定罪后，拉胡尔对法庭表示他在科拉尔发表的演讲符合他的职责和公众利益。

现在人民党得担心2024年的选举了，拉胡尔总会给他们最多的席位:)

Please don't worry RaGa will be released just before the elections, and he will howl louder once he's out. That will automatically give BJP it's biggest ever election win! Inshallah!

别操心拉胡尔了，他在选举前肯定会被释放的，一旦获释他一定会叫得更大声。这会给人民党带来有史以来最大的选举胜利！

Per dumb RaGa India has no de ocracy now-a-days, but plenty of Z level free security, free salary, free bungalow, free food and plenty of corrupted money looted from public coffers and stashed at various secret locations around the globe !!!

按照拉胡尔这个蠢蛋的说法，印度现在没有皿煮，但有人身安全、免费工资、免费平房、免费食物，还有大量从国库中贪污的赃款窝藏在全球各地的秘密地点！！

This News it-self shall serve the purpose!! Any ways Pseudo-secular parties have done enough damage to national interest; who all failed to do even simple common civil codes for secular country

这则新闻本身就足以达到目的了！！伪世俗政党已经对国家利益造成了足够大的损害；没有人为世俗国家制定过哪怕是简单的民法典。

By going around the world and insulting India itself is enough for him to be thrown out of country let alone the financial crimes conducted in india

他在世界各地侮辱印度，光凭这一点就足以让他被驱逐出境了，更不用说他在印度实施的金融犯罪了。

In the end if he loses his status as an MOP, then we would request GoI to remove any security provided to him at taxpayers' cost !!!

如果他最终失去议员身份，那么我们可以要求政府不再用纳税人的钱为他提供安全保障！！

No fan of Congress, or the Gandhis... but come on, that's hardly a remark worth sending someone to jail over. I am sure more people (myself included) have called the Gandhi family as thieves....

我不喜欢国大党，也不喜欢甘地家族。但拜托，就凭这句话根本不值当把人送进监狱。我相信更多人(包括我自己在内)会把甘地家族称为小偷....

Ruchir Goyal•17417• Ravi Sharma•Delhi•4 days ago

Calling Gandhi family a thief or Modi a thief is different... But saying everyone with name Modi is a thief is a big offense... We never say that everyone with surname Gandhi is a thief...

称甘地家族为贼，和称莫迪为贼是不一样的…但是说所有姓莫迪的人都是小偷？这就是一种严重的冒犯…我们从来没说过所有姓甘地的人都是小偷这种话…

cha•11• Ravi Sharma•3 days ago

If one is not held accountable, then theres no end to this nonsense and hes repeatedly doong this which even tue court said. And Gandhi family has criminal cases under trial against them.

如果不追究责任，那么这种无稽之谈就永远没有尽头，他一而再、再而三地诽谤。甘地家族还背负着刑事案件呢。

Varun Verma•16084• Ravi Sharma•4 days ago

Calling Gandhi family thieves is one thing but calling everyone with surname Gandhi a thief is another thing altogether....

称甘地家族为贼是一回事，但称所有姓甘地的人都是贼则完全是另一回事了....

Can I try to give another perspective. This is a verdict for Rahul's London speech.

我能不能试着换个角度来说两句。这是对拉胡尔在伦敦演讲的判决。

abundantstockp•9100• Rajiv Chadha•4 days ago

They say so many things that are straight-out twisted lies. In-fact that's how all politicians are irrespective of parties. So, putting Rahul in jail for 2 years for a comment like that is nothing but scaring the opposition gimmick. In fact, nothing will come out of this. The higher court will stay this judgment. But for sure BJP will accomplish what they want with it. Creating fear. I think this is just the begng of public outcry.

他们说过太多彻头彻尾、歪曲事实的谎言了。事实上，所有的政客都是如此，不分党派。所以，光凭这样的言论就把拉胡尔关进监狱2年，不过是吓唬反对派的噱头罢了。这么做是不会有任何结果的。上级法院会维持这一判决。但人民党肯定会得偿所愿。创造恐惧。我认为这只是公众抗议的开始。

Rohit Pande Troll Hunter•18984• Utkarsh Jhala•4 days ago

With Rahul out of picture, other options will look significantly better.

拉胡尔不参与竞选的话，会好太多了。

人民党这是害怕拉胡尔作为主要反对党的党首参加2024年的选举呢，真是不要脸。

If pappu goes to jail who will campaign for Modi

对对，人民党太害怕了。

如果拉胡尔入狱，谁能给莫迪陪跑呢。

荒唐，这个判决是法院的法官裁定的。现在这些哭哭啼啼的人对法院失去信心了吗？

This Italian Catholic and his family are staying in India only to carry out Pope’s mission of converting Indians to Christianity

这位意大利天主教徒和他的家人留在印度只是为了执行教皇的教令，让印度人皈依基督教。

ASHISH• Medini Rai•Delhi•4 days ago

What has religion got to do with this you M Oron . That's all bhakts think . Since Independence Christian population was 2 percent and still is almost the same. Most prominent people were educated in Christian schools. Do you actually think that this Jumla government would have ever done that?

All they care about are Mandirs, statues and looting and fooling people like you. Grow up!!

这跟宗教有什么关系。这是全体印度人的想法。自独立以来，基督教人口仅占2%，现在基本上仍然保持不变。大多数知名人士都在基督教学校接受过教育。你真的认为真拉政府能做到吗？

他们只关心寺庙，雕像，掠夺和愚弄像你这样的人。成熟点吧。

Viswanath K•18483• ASHISH•4 days ago

People convert and they don't inform govt. Because they loose the reservation benefits. Actually it's more than 2% now.

人们皈依基督教并不会通知政府。因为他们会失去预留制的恩惠。实际上现在基督教人口已经超过2%了。

mjs514•12430• Medini Rai•4 days ago

Anybody converted, you can take them back. Dare you, no one will come back to Hindu caste. That's why they left Hindu.

对那些皈依了基督教的人，你大可以把他们劝回去。但没有人会回归印度的种姓制度。这就是他们叛别印度教的原因。

Abraham Jacob•843• Medini Rai•4 days ago

There is a fine line between insulting a religion and mixng with politics. Medini Rai, nothing good comes out of a remark like this. Why would some one of your stature, maturity and education need to stoop low.

在侮辱宗教和谈论政治之间有一条微妙的界线。Medini Rai，你发表这样的评论是一点好处都没有的。为什么像你这样有名望、成熟且受过高等教育的人变得如此堕落呢？
