3 | On February 7, 2013, Angola awoke to screams of pain and the sound of two women customers of a store being whipped. | Taitra noho ny feon'ny hiakam-pahoriana sy ny feon'ny vehivavy roa mpanjifa nokaravasiana tao amina tranombarotra iray i Angola tamin'ny 7 Febroary 2013. |
4 | In just three days the 13-minute video that showed two women being brutally beaten and had more than 25,000 views on YouTube, was aired on state television. It shocked the Angolan community. | Tao anatin'ny telo andro monja, nahazo mpijery youtube maherin'ny 25.000 ilay rakitsary maharitra 13 minitra izay maneho vehivavy roa novonoina tamin-kerisetra, nalefa tamin'ny fahitalavi-panjakana ary nahatohina ny fiarahamonina Angoley. |
5 | Accused of stealing soap and champagne bottles, the women were severely punished and sexually humiliated by several men, including the owner of the store. | Nampangaina ho nangalatra savony sy tavoahanginà champagne, nosaziana mafy ireto vehivavy ary nalaim-baraka tamin'ny firaisana ara-nofo nataon'ny lehilahy maro, isan'izany ny tompon'ilay tranombarotra. |
6 | They later told reporters their ordeal lasted hours. | Nilaza tamin'ny mpanao gazety izy ireo taty aoriana fa naharitra ora maro ny fampijaliana natao azy. |
7 | The aggressors used machetes, nightsticks and hoses to torture the women, in a scene reminiscent of the days of slavery. | Nampiasa antsipika, hazo fidarohana, ary fantsona ireo mpamono olona, hampijaliana ireto vehivavy, tamina sehatra izay mampatsiahy ny andron'ny fanandevozana. |
8 | In a country where the Internet still plays a limited role, it was transformed in this instance into an instrument of greater oversight and allowed the country to see firsthand the meaning of the term “private justice”. | Ao anatina firenena izay mbola voafetra ihany ny anjara toeran'ny aterineto, tamin'ity fotoana ity kosa, niova ho lasa fitaovana iray nanome sehatra bebe kokoa ho amin'ny fahitana zavatra izy ary nitondra ny firenena hahita voalohany ny dikan'ny hoe “fitsaran'ny tena manokana”. |
9 | The internet, a symbol of emancipation, only now in Angola takes its first steps as a watchdog in service of the people, as journalist Reginaldo Silva explains on Facebook: | Amin'izao fotoana izao ny aterineto, izay endriky ny fahafahana, vao manao ny dingana voalohany amin'ny maha-alika mpiambina izay eo am-pelatanan'ny vahoaka any Angola, araka ny hazavain' ny mpanao gazety Reginaldo Silva eo amin'ny Facebook: |
10 | I think from today on, social networks earned a new status for those who run this country, with my attention now turned on the judiciary… It is important that the established powers start to face the information that is produced here in a different way… | Mihevitra aho fa nahazo toerana vaovao manomboka androany ny tambanjotra sosialy ho an'izay mitantana ity firenena ity, ary ny fijeriko izay mitodika amin'ny fahefam-pitsaràna ankehitriny… Zava-dehibe ny fanombohan'ny fanjakana mijoro miatrika ny vaovao izay novokarina tamin'ny fomba hafa… |
11 | Warning: graphic images. Video shared by ClubKnet on Youtube. | Fampitandremana: sary maherisetra. lahatsary nozarain'i ClubKnet teo amin'ny Youtube. |
12 | There were a number of voices raised against the video and expressing their grief and repudiation of the disseminated footage, such as the Prosecutor General Paulo Tchipilica, and the Governor of Luanda, Bento Bento. | Nisy maro ireo feo nisandratra nanohitra ilay lahatsary ary naneho ny hatezerany sy ny tokony hanafoanana ilay lahatsary naoaritaka, toy ny Lehiben'ny Fampanoavana Paulo Tchipilica, sy ny Governoran'i Loanda, Bento Bento. |
13 | However in a statement the Radio Eclésia commentator and President of [opposition party] Bloco Democrático, Justino Pinto de Andrade, believes that it is impossible to believe these members of government: | Na izany aza, ao amin'ny fanambaràny, dia mihevitra ny mpanao fanadihadiana ao amin'ny Radio Eclésia sy ny Filohan'ny [antoko mpanohitra] Bloco Democrático, Justino Pinto de Andrade, fa sarotra ny hino ireo mpikambana ao amin'ny governemanta ireo: |
14 | Every day there is gratuitous and barbarous violence against citizens, as though they had no rights, the most fundamental rights. | Isan'andro izao, misy foana ny herisetra zaraim-potsiny sy feno habibiana atao amin'ny vahoaka, sahala amin'ny hoe olona tsy manan-jo izy ireo, tsy manana ilay tena zo fototra. |
15 | Now, fruit of the exposure this footage enjoyed, we hear manifestations of repudiation by the Prosecutor General, Paulo Tchipilica, and even by the Governor of Luanda, Bento Bento. | Amin'izao fotoana, hita ny vokatry ny fanehoana ity lahatsary ity, henonay ny hetsika fanafoanana kasain'ny Lehiben'ny Fampanoavana, Paulo Tchipilica, eny fa na ny Governoran'i Luanda, Bento Bento aza. |
16 | The question that I pose is the following: is it possible to believe in the manifest “grief” shown by these two men in charge, when their voice of protest is never heard, when people are attacked on the street, when protesters are assailed in barbarous ways | Ny fanontaniana apetrako dia izao manaraka izao: azo inoana ve ny hetsika “hatezerana” asehon'ireto lehilahy tompon'andraikitra ireto, raha toa kosa tsy heno mihitsy ny feo fanoherana avy amin'izy ireo, rehefa tafihana eny an-dalambe ny olona, rehefa vonoina amin'ny fomba feno habibiana ireo mpanao hetsi-panoherana. |
17 | The Group of Parliamentary women also condemned the scenes of violence against the two women. | Nanameloka ny herisetra natao tamin'ireto vehivavy ireto ihany koa ny Vondrona Parlemantera. |
18 | In a communiqué to Lusa news agency, MPLA MP, and former Minister of the Family and Promotion of Women, Candida Celeste Silva said that: | Ao amin'ny fampitam-baovao ho an'ny masoivohom-baovao Lusa, nilaza i Candida Celeste Silva, Parlemantera avy amin'ny MPLA, ary ministry teoaloha nisahana ny Fianakaviana sy ny fanandratana ny Vehivavy, hoe: |
19 | The Group of Parliamentary women congratulates the citizens who reported the crime, considering it an attack on Human Rights | Miarahaba ireo olom-pirenena izay nitatitra ilay heloka ny Vondrona Vehivavy Parlemantera, izay mandray azy ity ho fanitsakitsahana ny Zon'Olombelona |
20 | However journalist and ex-BBC correspondent Reginaldo Silva, believes that most women should watch the footage again: | Na izany aza, mihevitra i Reginaldo Silva, mpanao gazety solontenan'ny BBC teo aloha, fa tokony hiverina hijery ilay lahatsary indray ny vehivavy: |
21 | All the women who I heard from today condemning the scene of violence against the two women seem to have ignored that the scenes were witnessed on the spot by at least three women, as the footage itself easily proves. | Toa sahala amin'ny tsy mahalala akory ireo vehivavy rehetra izay henoko hatramin'ny androany nanameloka ilay herisetra natao tamin'ireto vehivavy roa, fa nisy vehivavy, farafarakeliny telo, nanatri-maso teo amin'ilay sehatra, araka ny anaporofoan'ilay lahatsary azy tsara. |
22 | It is a detail that makes some difference and should not be ignored when justice is to be done… | Pitsopitsony izany izay mahatonga fahasamihafana ary tsy tokony hodian-tsy hita rehefa ho entina eny amin'ny fitsarana… |
23 | The stolen bottle, Moet Chandon, which costs just 28€, is now associated on social networks with the scenes of aggression, as can be seen on an image shared by Master Ngola Nvunji on Facebook. | Naraikitra amin'ilay tranganà fampijaliana amin'izao fotoana izao ety anaty tambajotra sosialy ny tavoahanginà champagne, Moet Chandon, mitentina 28€, araka ny hita eo amin'ny sary nozarain'i Master Ngola Nvunji eo amin'ny Facebook. Fampitandremana: sary maherisetra. |
24 | Since last year, cases of violence exposed on the internet have made Angola tremble. | Lahatsary nozarain'i ClubKnet teo amin'ny Youtube. Hatramin'ny herintaona, nampivarahontsana an'i Angola ny tranga maro nahitana herisetra naseho teo amin'ny aterineto. |
25 | Earlier this year, images of a prisoner being beaten were disseminated. | Tamin'ny voalohadohan'ity taona ity, sarin'ny mpifonja iray novonoina no naparitaka. |
26 | The blog Círculo Angolano Intelectual (Angolan Intellectual Circuit) also cautions that this video is a portrait of Angolan society and where it is headed. | Tohanan'ny bilaogy Círculo Angolano Intelectual (Làlana Ara-tsaina Angoley) ihany koa fa endriky ny fiarahamonina Angoley sy izay itarihana azy ity lahatsary ity. |
27 | We have to rethink the type of country and society that we want to leave for our children and future generations, and in this way we all have to react and nobody can remain indifferent, because unfortunately cases like this are everyday for us… criminality is the fruit of poverty, misery, unemployment, unjust social policies, even the police themselves with low salaries are more worried about gasosa [a way of referring to bribes] for their survival than for the defense of the citizen and the common good. | Mila mamerina mandinika ny karazana firenena sy ny fiarahamonina izay tiantsika havela hoan'ny zanatsika sy taranaka any aoriana isika, amin'izay, mila miaraka mihetsika isika ary tsy hisy olona tsy hivaky loha, satria indrisy mantsy fa isan'andro vaky izao dia misy tranga toy ity foana ho antsika… Ny herisetra dia vokatry ny fahantrana, ny fijaliana, ny tsy fisian'asa, ny politika tsy rariny ara-tsosialy, eny fa na ny polisy miaraka amin'ity karama keliny aza dia matahotra ny gasosa [fomba filazana ny kolikoly] amin'ny fivelomany kokoa noho ny hoe fiarovana ny vahoaka sy ny fananana iombonana. |
28 | Angolan state TV reported that the Prosecutor General of the Republic and the National Police have already detained the suspects in the beating case. | Nitatitra ny fahitalavi-panjakana Angoley fa efa nanagadra ireo olo-meloka voampanga eo amin'ity tranga fampijaliana ity ny Lehiben'ny Fampanoavan'ny Repobilka sy ny Polisimpirenena. |
29 | The Prosecutor also recognized the fundamental role of the dissemination of the video in social networks. | Niaiky ny anjara toerana fototra notanan'ny fanaparitahana ity lahatsary ity tamin'ny tambajotra sosialy ihany koa ny Mpampanoa lalàna. |
