Kenyan Court Keeps Refugee Camp Open(翻译)

Kenya’s high court announced the ruling Thursday.It said closing the Dadaab camp would violate the country’s constitution.
肯尼亚最高法院周四宣布了这一裁决。法院称关闭达达布难民营属于违宪行为。

Rights groups sought legal action after the Kenyan government announced last May that it would close the camp.It said it would return home the almost 260,000 Somali refugees living there.
在去年五月肯尼亚政府宣布计划关闭该难民营后，人权组织付诸法律行动。据估计，难民营关闭会迫使居住在这里的26万索马里难民不得不回到家乡。

The Somalis had fled fighting in their country, which borders Kenya.
这些索马里难民为逃离国内战争而来到了邻国肯尼亚。

Kenyan high court justice John Mativo said the government’s orders to close the camp were discriminatory and amounted to collective punishment.
肯尼亚最高法院法官约翰·玛提沃称政府关闭难民营的计划带有歧视性，相当于连坐制度。

Kenya had argued that security threats made it necessary to close the camp.
肯尼亚政府认为其面临的安全威胁需要关闭难民营。

The government also said it would close the Department of Refugee Affairs.The High Court also rejected that plan.
政府还称要关闭难民事务部。最高法院也否决了这项计划。

A Ministry of the Interior official, Mwenda Njoka,said the Kenyan government will appeal the ruling because the reason for closing the camp remains.
内务部官员姆温达·恩乔卡称，肯尼亚政府将进行上诉，因为关闭难民营的原因依然存在。

The main reason was security, Njoka said.The fact that the camps have lost their humanitarian character and they became places where terrorists would come,al-Shabab and their sympathizers would go and plan their attacks on Kenya.So that has not changed."
“最主要的原因是安全问题，”恩乔卡说，“事实上，难民营已经丧失了人道主义本质，成为恐怖分子、及他们的支持者聚集并商量发动对肯尼亚的袭击的地方。这一点并未改变。”

Njoka said that Somalia "has also stabilized."A new president, Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed, took office in Somalia on Wednesday.
恩乔卡称，索马里“已经稳定下来”。索马里新任总理默罕默德·阿卜杜拉希·穆罕默德已与周三上台执政。

Njoka also said that the Kenyan government would obey the court’s ruling if it loses on appeal."We cannot defy a court order," he said.
恩乔卡还说，若上诉失败，肯尼亚政府会遵循法院的裁决。他说：“我们不能违抗法院的命令。”

The rights group Amnesty International praised the court’s decision.But the group’s deputy regional director Michelle Kagari also said that Kenya has carried “a disproportionate burden“ when it comes to housing refugees.She called on western countries to take a fair share of refugees.
人权组织国际特赦组织赞扬了最高法院的裁决。但该组织副区域主管米歇尔·卡格里称，在接纳难民方面，肯尼亚承担了“不成比例的负担”。她呼吁西方国家去接纳相应比例的难民。

The Norwegian Refugee Council,Doctors Without Borders and Human Rights Watch also released statements praising the ruling.
挪威难民理事会， 无国界医生组织及人权监察站都发表了声明，赞扬肯尼亚最高法院的裁决。

The United Nations says almost 34,000 refugees have returned to Somalia since Kenya announced it would close the Dadaab camp.
联合国称，自肯尼亚宣布将关闭达达布难民营以来，已有将近3.4万难民返回了索马里。
