3When three members of the Georgetown City Constabulary were dismissed earlier this month for becoming pregnant while they were still on probation, Guyanese netizens spoke out about the controversial move, which also got the attention of Amnesty International Caribbean.Raha noroahina ireo vehivavy telo mpikambana ao amin'ny vondron'ny Polisy ao Georgetown tamin'ny fiandohan'ity volana ity noho izy ireo bevohoka kanefa mbola tao anatin'ny fisedrana, dia niaka-peo tamin'ity fanapahan-kevitra mampiadi-hevitra ity ireo mpiserasera Goyaney, ary nampitodika ny sain'ny Amnesty International Karaiba ihany koa.
4The women eventually got their jobs back, but the road to that decision and the ground still left to cover in Guyana is considerable.Tafaverina tamin'ny asany ihany ireo vehivavy tamin'ny farany saingy mbola tavela ny lalana nahatongavana tamin'ny fanapahan-kevitra sy ny resabe naterany ao Goyana.
5Twitter user Mark Jacobs didn't understand why people thought the police were being unreasonable when it dismissed the three women:Tsy mazava amin'ilay mpisera Twitter, Mark Jacobs ny anton'ny niheveran'ny olona fa tsy misaina ny polisy raha nandroaka ireo vehivavy telo:

7(@emarkjacobs) August 7, 2015 Several women online said the police service's policy is what doesn't make sense today:Nilaza ireo vehivavy maro ao amin'ny aterineto fa ny politikan'ny sevisin'ny polisy no efa tsy misy dikany ankehitriny:
8Guyana MUST amend its old rules.TSY MAINTSY ovain'i Goiana ireo lalànany taloha.
9It does not make sense really that in today's world, women can be dismissed as… http://t.co/8LLnmpaneKTsy misy dikany mihitsy amin'izao tontolo ankehitriny izao, azo roahina ny vehivavy raha …
10- Nyaradzayi (@vanyaradzayi) August 7, 2015 The fact that, in 2015, women are still being discriminated against on the grounds of pregnancy has left some dumbfounded, but the situation is perhaps more complicated that some believe.Ny tena marina, amin'izao taona 2015 izao, nahatonga ny sasany ho talanjona ny mbola fanavakavahana ny vehivavy eo amin'ny resaka vohoka, saingy mbola mety ho sarotra kokoa tsy araka ny fiheveran'ny sasany ny toe-javatra.
11In a public discussion about the issue on the Stabroek News' Facebook page, for instance, Yonnette Kennedy shared her personal experience:
12The law was there all the time people […] they told you that when you go for the job if you get pregnant before a year you [are] on duty you have to leave, you have one year probation before you get pregnant, it happened to me 23 year[s] ago, and I leave because I know that was [sic] the rules, I know it [is] not right to dismiss someone because they are pregnant, but they knew that before they take the job.Tamin'ny fifanakalozankevitra misokatra ho an'ny rehetra momba ny raharaha tao amin'ny pejy Facebook-n'ny gazety Stabroek, ohatra, nizara ny zavatra niainany manokana i Yonnette Kennedy: Teo mandrakariva ny lalàna […] milaza aminao fa raha mahazo asa ianao ka bevohoka alohan'ny herintaona niasanao, dia tsy maintsy miala, mahavita fisedrana asa herintaona ianao alohan'ny mahabevohoka anao, nitranga tamiko izany 23 taona lasa izay, niala aho satria fantatro fa izany ny fitsipika, fantatro fa tsy rariny ny fandroahana olona satria bevohoka izy, saingy fantatr'izy ireo [ny fitsipika] talohan'ny nanekeny ny asa
13Lorette Watson agreed that the women knew what they were getting into:Niombon-kevitra i Lorette Watson fa fantatr'ireo vehivavy hoe amin'inona no idirany :
14For whatever reason, I think young people don't take rules and regulations seriously and this is a example for them sorry it had to happen while they are pregnant but the rule is the rule.Na inona na inona antony, mino aho fa sy nandray ny lalàna sy ny fitsipika ho zava-dehibe ireo tanora ary ohatra ho azy ireo izany , miala tsiny fa tsy maintsy nitranga izany raha bevohoka izy ireo, rehefa lalàna dia lalàna.
15Facebook user Rawle Chalmers expressed his irritation at the “bureaucratic assholes who keep turning back the clock on women issues,” while another commenter wondered about maternity leave, and Donnella Collison said:Naneho ny hatezerany tamin'ireo “mpiasa birao tsy misaina” mbola mampiverin-dalana ny zon'ny vehivavy i Rawle Chalmers mpisera Facebook,” raha nisy mpaneho hevitra iray hafa kosa nanontany momba ny fialan-tsasatra azo amin'ny fiterahana, ary hoy i Donnella Collison:
16Facebook user Rawle Chalmers expressed his irritation at the “bureaucratic assholes who keep turning back the clock on women issues,” while another commenter wondered about maternity leave, and Donnella Collison said:
17I hope more women that lost their jobs under these circumstances come forward so that this archaic can finally be changed.Manantena aho fa hiroso hatrany [hitory?] ireo vehivavy maromaro very asa noho izany toe-javatra izany ka mba mety hiova ity fitsipika tranainy ity.
18Though both Guyana's constitution and the Prevention of Discrimination Act prohibit such dismissals, the three women (according to the termination letters) were in violation of departmental policy that bars female constabulary officers from becoming pregnant within the first two years of probation.Na dia mandràra izany fandroahana izany aza ny lalàmpanorenana sy ny Lalànan'ny Fisorohana ny Fanavakavahana ao Goiana, nanitsakitsaka ny politikan'ny departemanta izay mandràra ny polisy manampahefana vehivavy tsy hanao bevohoka ao anatin'ny roa taona voalohan'ny fisedrana ireo vehivavy telo ireo (araka ny taratasy fandroahana).
19The development (pregnancy) constitutes a clear violation of the City Constabulary Standing Order section 4:11(Para) J11.Fanitsakitsahana ny Fehezan-dalàna 4:11 (Para) J11 ao amin'ny Tobin'ny Polisy ny mitondra vohoka).
20As if those dismissals weren't enough, a former policewoman, 19-year-old Abassie Bobb, told the Guyanese press that she was dismissed in July of this year under a similar policy against pregnancy.Raha tsy ampy ireo fandroahana ireo, nilaza tamin'ny gazety Goaianey ny vehivavy polisy, 19-taona Abassie Bobb fa noroahina izy tamin'ny volana Jolay tamin'ity taona ity noho ny lalàna mitovitovy amin'ny fitondrana vohoka.
21Bobb claims she was dismissed after confiding to her superiors that she was with child.Nilaza i Bobb fa voaroaka izy rehefa nitsotra tamin'ny lehibeny fa mananjanaka.
22The dismissal letter stated that her services where being terminated in accordance with the Guyana Police Act.Nilaza ny taratasy fandroahana fa nofaranana ny asany araka ny Lalàna Mifehy ny Polisy ao Goiana.
23According to Chief Constable Andrew Foo, the policy under which the female constables were fired is “an age-old one,” and while it may appear discriminatory, it should not be amended, he says.Araka ny filazan'ny Lehiben'ny Polisy, Andrew Foo, efa “fanao taloha” ny fametrahan-dalàna mandroaka ny vehivavy ary jerena toa manavakavaka, fa tsy tokony ahitsy, hoy izy.
24His fear is that “a great percentage of females [in the constabulary] could become pregnant.”Ny mampatahotra azy dia “mety ho bevohoka avokoa ny ankamaroan'ireo vehivavy [ao amin'ny pollisy] .”
25Although the provisions within the policy are older than Guyana's 1980 Constitution and even the country's 1997 Prevention Against Discrimination Act, Foo reportedly believes that the policy is up-to-date because he helped revised it in 2013.Na dia tranainy noho ny Lalàmpanorenana 1980 ao Goiana sy ny Lalàna Fisorohana ny Fanavakavahana 1997 ao amin'ny firenena aza ireo fehezan-dalànan'ny fandaminana [rafitra], toa mihevitra i Foo fa maharaka andro ny fandaminana satria nanampy tamin'ny fanitsiana azy izy tamin'ny 2013.
26One female constable, Laurel Gittens, recently defended the policy, saying that leniency in this regard would put a tremendous burden on the police service.Niaro ny politikam-pandaminana ny vehivavy polisy iray, Laurel Gittens, vao haingana, nilaza fa mety ho enta-mavesatra eo amin'ny asan'ny polisy ny tsy fanaovana hentitra manoloana an'izany.
27It would put a burden on the organization if we allow women to become impregnated during probation…the pregnancy constitutes a clear violation of the City Constabulary Standing Order Section 4:11 (Para) J11Mety hametraka enta-mavesatra eo amin'ny fandaminana izany raha avelantsika ho bevohoka mandritra ny fisedrana izy ireo … fanitsakitsahana mazava ny Fehezan-dalàna 4:11 (Para) J11 ao amin'ny Tobin'ny Polisy ny mitondra vohoka
28At the time, Gittens emphasized that any change in the policy would have to be made by Parliament.Tamin'izany fotoana izany, nanipika i Gittens fa tokony ho ny Parlemanta no manatontosa ny fanovana rehetra ao amin'ny politikam-pandaminana.
29She also claimed that police command is tolerant, and women are able to take leaves of absence and return quietly to work, after giving birth.Nilaza ihany koa izy fa mahalefitra ny mpanapa-kevitry ny polisy, satria afaka maka fialan-tsasatra ireo vehivavy ary miverina amim-pilaminana miasa rehefa avy miteraka.
30The subsequent protest staged outside the capital's City Hall got the attention of the powers that be: the sacked constables have since been reinstated.Nanaitra ireo manampahefana ny fihetsiketsehana notontosaina tao ivelan'ny Lapan'ny Tanàna: Noraisina hiasa indray avy eo ireo polisy voaroaka nanomboka teo.
31It may eventually be up to the Guyanese people to decide whether or not any pending Constitutional Reform requires amendments to an archaic policy that continues to stand up from the country's other, more modern laws.Angamba mety hiankina amin'ny vahoaka Goianey ny manapa-kevitra raha mila fanovana na tsia ao amin'ny Fanavaozana ny Lalàmpanorenana efa miandry ity politikam-pandaminana efa tranainy ity izay mbola mijoro anilan'ireo lalàna hafa efa maoderina kokoa ao amin'ny firenena.
32Many feel that a policy that discriminates against women-especially women trying to serve their country-should no longer be allowed.Maro no mihevitra fa tokony tsy havela hahazo laka intsony ny politika manavakavaka ny vehivavy, indrindra ny vehivavy miezaka hanompo ny fireneny.
