2 | In December 2008, the killing of 15-year old Alexandros Grigoropoulos at the hands of Greek police triggered month-long riots and protests in several cities across Greece, fueled by rage at growing police brutality, compounded by impunity, incompetence and corruption in the Greek political system, rife with scandals, that precipitated the financial crisis. | Tamin'ny desambra 2008, niteraka korontana sy fanoherana tao amin'ny tanàna maro tany Grèce ny nahafatesan'ilay zatovo iray antsoina hoe Alexandros Grigoropoulos, 15 taona, tany amin'ny polisy, tezitra ny olona noho ny herisetra ataon'ny polisy tsy mitsaha-mitombo, miaraka amin'ny tsy fahazoana sazy, ny tsy fahaizana sy ny kolikoly, ny resabe izay nanafaingana ny olana ara-bola. |
3 | Finally, after two years of tortuous deliberations, the court delivered a verdict on October 11. | Farany, taorian'ny roa taona nampiferin'aina niandrasana ny valiny, nivoaka ny didim-pitsarana tamin'ny 11 oktobra. |
4 | The officer who shot Grigoropoulos, Epaminondas Korkoneas, was found guilty of murder and sentenced to life in prison. | Ilay polisy namono an'i Grigoropoulos, Epaminondas Korkoneas, voaheloka noho izany ary higadra mandra-pahafatiny. |
5 | Another officer, Vassilios Saraliotis, was found guilty of complicity and sentenced to 10 years in prison. | Polisy hafa koa, Vassilios Saraliotis, voaheloka higadra 10 taona an-tranomaizina noho ny firaisana tsikombakomba. |
6 | First reactions on Twitter | Fanehoan-kevitra voalohany tany amin'nyTwitter |
7 | Twitter users awaiting the verdict and sentencing reacted to the announcement with grim relief and circumspection. | Ireo mpiserasera twitter teo am-piandrasana raha vao naheno dia nisento naneho fahafahana saingy tamim-pahamalinana. |
8 | The December riots were the first time Twitter was used extensively in Greece by hundreds of users to report on an ongoing story, and was even monitored and quoted by international media. | Ny korontana niseho tamin'ny volana desambra no nanombohan'ny fiseraserana tamin'ny twitter be indrindra tany Grèce, nampiasa azy ny olona aman'arivony maro nanarahana ny fizotry ny tantara, ary nilain'ny media iraisam-pirenena aza izy tamin'izany. |
9 | It even helped “nickname” the uprising with the #griots hashtag, which reverberated in coverage throughout social media and beyond. | Nanampy ilay “anaram-bositra” tamin'ny rohy#griots koa izy, izay nameno ny pejy voalohan'ny media sy ny tany ambadika rehetra. |
10 | The public trust in the Greek justice system is at an all-time low, after decades of political scandals and police brutality incidents gone unpunished. | Tsy mbola ambany ohatr'izany ny fahatokisan'ny olona ny fomba fitsarana tany Grèce, nandritra ny taranaka maro nifandimby nisian'ny raharaha politika ratsy sy hery setra ataon'ny polisy izay tsy voasazy mihitsy. |

12 | a possibly historic day for the country (waiting for a uniformed murderer to be convicted to life imprisonment for the first time…) | Andro mana-tantara ho an'ny firenena angamba (izay niandry mpamono olona mitondra fanamiana miaramila voalohany voasazy higadra mandra-pahafatiny…) |
13 | Citizen photojournalist Craig Wherlock, who covered the December riots in Thessaloniki for days on end, once again reported from the streets: | Ilay mpanao gazety mpaka sary Craig Wherlock, izay nanao fanadihadihana tamin'ny korontana tamin'ny desambra tany Thessalonique nandritra ny andro maro, no nanao izany indray teny an-dalana rehetra teny: |
14 | On the way to the centre saw lots of riot police units on duty then realised that the verdict on the Grigoropoulos case was out today. | Teny an-dalana ho an'ny afovoan'ny tanàna aho no nahita polisy maro mitandro ny filaminana amperin'asa, izay vao tsaroako fa hay moa anio no hivoaka ny didim-pitsarana tamin'ny raharaha namonoana an'i Grogoropoulos. |
15 | Reactions when the sentencing was announced were muted. | Tamim-pahamalinana ihany no nandraisana ny vaovao momba ilay fanasaziana. |

17 | Life sentence for Greek cop who murdered teenager, causing riots 2 years ago. | Fanagadrana miaramila grika mandra-pahafatiny satria namono zatovo iray, niteraka savorovoro 2 taona lasa izay. |
18 | There is some justice left in this country after all… | Misy fahamarinana ihany ao ami'nny firenena na izany aza… |
19 | Antidrasex complimented the “blind lady” and pleaded, | Antidrasex nanasoaso ilay “ramatoa jamba” ary nilaza, |
20 | Dear Justice, today you showed that you can function. | Ramatoa Fahamarinana, androany nampiseho ianao fa faka miasa ihany. |
21 | I hope you do so in other cases too, as well as during the appeal | Enga anie mbola hanao toy izany ihany ianao amin'ny raharaha hafa koa, sy amin'ny fitsarana ambony. |
22 | … while Cyberela, musing on the chronic delays of the Greek judicial system, appended to the plea, | … raha Cyberela kosa, mieritreritra momba ny fahelan'ny fitsarana grika, nameno ilay tonom-bavaka, |
23 | … and be more swift in deliberating, dear Justice. | … ataovy haingana koa ny fitsarana. |
24 | 2 years have passed since the murder of the child | 2 taona izay no lasa hatramin'ny nahafatesan'ilay ankizy. |
25 | Cyberela also compares the verdict with that of a similar case of a youth's murder by a police officer 25 years ago: | Cyberela koa mampitaha ny didim-pitsarana amin'ny raharaha mitovy amin'izao ihany, vono olona nataon'ny polisy 25 taona lasa izay: |
26 | What an insane justice system… Korkoneas gets life but Melistas got 2.5 years for the same crime | Fahamarinan'adala… Korkoneas nihinana mandra-pahafatiny fa i Melistas nigadra 2 taona sy tapany monja kanefa mitovy ny heloka. |
27 | … to which satirical blogger pitsirikos replied in deadpan, | … izay novalian'ilay mpitoraka bilaogy pitsirikos tsy nitafatfa mihitsy, |
28 | No web and no blogs in Melistas' time. | Tsy mbola nisy internety sy bilaogy tamin'ny andron'i Melistas. |
29 | There are in Korkoneas' time. | Efa misy kosa ireo amin'izao andron'i Korkoneas izao. |
30 | That was his misfortune | Izay no naharatsy vintana azy |
31 | elentelon, a vocal proponent of a strict sentences in the Grigoropoulos case, mused on the aftermath: | elentelon, momba tsy misy fe-petra ny sazy masiaka tamin'ny raharahan'i Grigoropoulos, mieritreritra ny tohiny : |
32 | And where are we after Korkoneas' conviction? | Mitondra antsika ho aiza ny fanasaziana an'i Korkoneas? |
33 | The police state in Athens is running wild and the next Grigoropoulos is around the corner | Mahazo vahana foana ny polisy any Athènes ka efa akaiky koa ny Grogoropoulos manaraka |
34 | Blogs chime in | Mihodina ny bilaogy |
35 | The Jungle Report blog also drew parallels with the Melistas case and cautioned that the sentence is not final: | Ny bilaogy Jungle Report misintona zavatra mitovy tamin'ny raharahan'i Melistas ary mampitandrina fa iny didim-pitsarana iny dia mbola tsy tena izy: |
36 | If the case goes through the Appeals Court to the Supreme Court, public opinion will not be a factor, but the issue will be weighed in a strictly legal environment. | Raha miakatra fitsarana ambony ny raharaha, dia tsy raisina ny hevitry ny maro, mijanona ao amin'ny tontolon'ny fitsarana madiodio ny raharaha. |
37 | [Melistas] was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison but was cleared of charges during his appeal. | Voasazy higadra 2 taona sy tapany i Melistas kanefa nafahan'ny fitsarana ambony. |
38 | Therefore, it's premature to celebrate a sentence which will possibly be overturned. | Mbola tsy azo ato izany ny mifaly amin'iny didim-pitsarana iny satria mbola mety hivadika ny rasa. |
39 | Blogger and graphic designer Arkoudos bitterly commented on the lack of justice in the more recent case of an immigrant bystander shot by police during a bank heist, with another front page cover for his faux-magazine, “Point of View”: | Ilay mpitoraka bilaogy sy mpanao sary Arkoudos naneho hevitra sady koriko amin'ny tsy fahamarinana tamin'ny raharaha vao haingana izay namonoan'ny polisy mpifindra monina mandalo iray nandritra ny fanafihana banky, tao amin'ny pejy voalohany hafa ao amin'ny gazetiny tsy tena izy, “Fomba fijery”: |
