4Since they were first arrested and jailed on April 25, 2014, Ethiopia's Zone9 bloggers have seen many twists and turns in their case.Hatramin'ny nisamborana azy ireo voalohany sy namonjàna azy ny 25 Apriy 2014, betsaka ny fivoaram-baovao sy fiovàn-javatra natrehan'ireo bilaogeran'ny Zone9 ao Etiopia tamin'ny raharaha momba azy ireo.
5All told, they have appeared before the court 30 times in 15 months, and been adjourned each time.Rehefa lazaina izany rehetra izany, in-30 niseho fitsaràna tao anatin'ny 15 volana izy ireo, nahemotra isaky ny mihetsika.
6But with the release of five of the detainees last week, the case now has reached at a critical juncture.Saingy tamin'ny herinandro lasa, niaraka tamin'ny famotsorana ireo dimy voafonja, tonga aminà sehatra iray saropady ankehitriny ny raharaha.
7Five Ethiopian writers (four in prison and one in absentia) are still on trial for terror-related crimes that the Ethiopian government claims were committed beginning in May 2012.Etiopiana mpanoratra miisa dimy (efatra any am-ponja ary iray tsy nanatrika) no mbola miatrika fitsarana noho ny fanenjehana azy ireo aminà heloka bevava izay lazain'ny governemanta Etiopiana fa notanterahana tany amin'ny fiandohan'ny May 2012.
8On July 20, the Ethiopian High Court is expected to issue a verdict on the case.Ny 20 Jolay, andrasana ny hamoahan'ny Fitsarana Tampony Etiopiana ny didy momba ilay raharaha.
9Endalk Chala, a founding member of the Zone9 blogging collective and Global Voices contributor, answers six key questions on the minds of their supporters around the world.Endalk Chala, mpikambana iray mpanorina ny fitorahana bilaogy iraisana “Zone9″ sady mpiara-miasa amin'ny Global Voices, mamaly fanontaniana fototra miisa enina mipetraka ao an-tsain'ireo mpanohana an-dry zareo eran-tany.
10Prosecutors say that the writers have engaged themselves in undercover enterprise with the intent to overthrow, modify or suspend the Ethiopian Federal State Constitution by violence, threats or conspiracy.Lazain'ireo mpampanoa lalàna fa niditra tamin'ny fanaovana fitsofohana an-tsokosoko ireo mpanoratra ireo, ka tanjona tamin'izany ny hanongana, hanova na hampiantona ny Lalàm-panorenana Federalin'ny Fanjakana Etiopiana, amin-kerisetra, fandrahonana na firaisana tsikombakomba.
11Prosecutors have since further accused the writers of encrypting their communications and disseminating seditious writings with the intention of causing public strife or to overthrow, modify or suspend the Ethiopian Federal Constitutional State by violence, threats, or conspiracy.Nanomboka tamin'izany no niampangan'ireo mpampanoa lalàna ireo mpanoratra ireo ho manafina ny fifandraisan'izy ireo hifono anaty ‘codes' sy manaparitaka asa soratra mihantsy ny olona hikorontana na hanongana, hanova na hampiantona ny Lalàm-panorenana Federalin'ny Fanjakana Etiopiana, amin-kerisetra, fandrahonana na firaisana tsikombakomba.
12While the first charge asserts that the writers violated the country's contentious anti-terrorism law, the latter is a violation of criminal code of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia.Raha toa ilay vesatra voalohany ka milaza fa nanitsakitsaka ny lalàna napetraky ny firenena hiadiana amin'ny asa fampihorohorana ireo mpanoratra, ilay farany kosa dia fanitsakitsahana ny lalàna momba ny heloka bevava ao amin'ny Repoblika Demokratika Federalin'i Etiopia.
13Both charges are severe in terms penalties, though media coverage of the case has primarily focused on the terrorism charge.Samy vesatra henjana daholo izy roa ireo raha resaka sazy, indrindra fa nafantoky ny media tamin'ny resaka vesatra noho ny asa fampihorohoroana koa ny fandrakofana vaovao nataon-dry zareo tamin'ilay raharaha.
14There are ten individuals charged, out of which only five individuals are released suddenly last week.Misy olona folo no voampanga, dimy amin'ireo no navotsotra tampoka tamin'ny herinandro lasa.
15The manner in which the writers were released is so mysterious that even their defense attorney heard the news of the release of his clients via radio.Tena misitery ny fomba namotsorana ireo mpanoratra fa na ireo mpisolovava azy ireo aza dia tamin'ny fampielezampeo no nandre ny vaovao momba ilay famotsorana.
16Critics say that the government is trying to save face by releasing a few individuals ahead of President Obama's imminent visit to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.Lazain'ireo kiana fa miezaka ny manatsara endrika mialoha ny fitsidihana efa manakaiky hataon'ny Filoha Obama ao Addis Ababa, Etiopia ny governemanta tamin'ny namotsorany ireo olona vitsivitsy ireo.
17In Ethiopia's legal system there is only a ‘bench' trial, in which a judge or panel of judges, not a jury, determines if someone is guilty or innocent.Ao anatin'ny rafi-pitsarana ao Etiopia, ny fitsaràna “ambony dabilio” ihany no misy, izay ahitàna mpitsara iray na andiany vitsy, fa tsy vondronà mpitsara (fanamarihana: izay raha ny mahazatra dia ahitàna mpitsara miisa roa ambinifolo), no mamaritra ny olona iray ho diso na tsy manan-tsiny.
18Accordingly, the cases of Zone9 Bloggers have been overseen by a middle judge called Shelemew Bekele who chairs the panel of three judges.Mifanaraka amin'izany, mpitsara salantsalany antsoina hoe Shelemew Bekele izay nitarika mpitsara telo hafa no niandraikitra ny raharahan'ireo bilaogeran'ny Zone9.
19However, the Zone9 bloggers have repeatedly pointed out that the judge presiding over the case has changed at least four times since proceedings against them first began.Kanefa, efa im-betsaka no nanipihan'ireo bilaogeran'ny Zone9 fa efa in-4 raha kely indrindra no novàna ny mpitsara nampiandraiketina ilay raharaha hatramin'ny nanombohan'ny fanenjehana azy ireo.
20After the bloggers protested his partiality to the prosecutors, Judge Shelemew promised to walk out from the case but he still is presiding the case.Taorian'ny nanoheran'ireo bilaogera ny fitanilàn'ilehio mankany amin'ny mpampanoa lalàna, nanome toky ilay mpitsara, Judge Shelemew, ny hiala amin'ilay raharaha nefa dia mbola izy ihany no miandraikitra ilay raharaha.
21Since five of the writers who are accused of similar of crimes were released, there is a hope that the Ethiopian court will exonerate the remaining five bloggers.Satria nafàhana ny dimy tamin'ireo mpanoratra izay nampangaina tamin-javatra mitovy ihany, dia misy ny fanantenana hoe hanome izany ho an'ireo dimy sisa ambiny koa ny fitsarana Etiopiana.
22In brief statements, the released writers said they are perplexed why their colleagues are left in prison but they are optimistic that their friends will soon join them in the free world.Tao anaty fanambaràna fohy, nilaza ireo mpanoratra nafahana fa mahavàka ny sain'izy ireo ny antony mbola maha-any am-ponja ireo namany, saingy be fanantenana kosa ry zareo fa tsy ho ela dia hanaraka ny dian'izy ireo ho ety anaty tontolo malalaka izy ireny.
23For terrorism and incitement offenses, the mandatory sentence in Ethiopia is a minimum of eight years in prison.Ho an'ny fanentanana ny olona hanao asa fampihorohoroana sy handika lalàna, ny sazy tsy maintsy zakaina ao Etiopia dia famonjàna valo taona raha kely indrindra.
24However, in the absence of any evidence to support the allegation, I hope the court will recognize that the bloggers are being tried solely for their work in relation with their human rights activism, including their articles critical of Ethiopian government policies, and will exonerate them.Kanefa, raha tsy misy ny porofo ho entina manohana izay rehetra fiahiahiana, antenaiko fa hitsara fotsiny ireo bilaogera amin'izay asany mifandray amin'ny hafanàm-pony miaro zon'olombelona ny fitsaràna, isan'izany ireo lahatsoratra nanakianan-dry zareo ny politikan'ny governemanta Etiopiana, ary dia hanafaka azy ireo.
25The case of Zone9Bloggers is unfortunately no anomaly in Ethiopia's highly compromised judiciary system.Indrisy fa tsy zavatra hafahafa no ahitàna ny raharaha Zone9Bloggers ao anatin'ny rafi-pitsaràna faran'izay tsy manana elanelam-panahy ao Etiopia.
26It is the tip of an iceberg in which political corruption thrives and the judicial system is run by an elite and powerful minority.Tendron'ny vongan-dranomandry io ao anatin'ny fivoaran'ny kolikoly ara-politika sy ny rafi-pitsaràna izay ny sangany sy ny vitsy an'isa manana fahefana no mifehy azy.
27Endalk Chala is a founding member of the Zone9 blogging collective who is currently pursuing at PhD at the University of Oregon in the US.Endalk Chala dia mpikambana iray mpanorina ny fitorahana bilaogy iraisana “Zone9″ izay manomana diplaoma PhD ao amin'ny Anjerimanontolon'ny Oregon any Etazonia.
