1 | Bangladesh Court Disqualifies Jamaat-e-Islami Party from Elections | Bangladesh : Tsy Afaka Miatrika Fifidianana Ny Antoko Jamaat-e-Islami |
2 | Bangladesh's high court has declared the registration of Islamist political party Jamaat-e-Islami illegal, a move praised by some who consider the party extreme and condemned by others as harmful to democracy. | Nambaran'ny fitsarana avo any Bengladesh fa tsy ara-dalàna ny fijoroan'ny Antoko politika Islamika Jamaat-e-Islami, fanambaràna nankasitrahan'ireo izay mihevitra fa ekstremista ilay antoko, sy ireo izay nanameloka azo ho manelingelina ny demokrasia. |
3 | The verdict handed down on August 1, 2013 comes as the final decision on a petition from 25 people, including members of other Islamist parties, which challenged Jamaat's registration in January 2009. | Ilay didim-pitsaràna nivoaka tamin'ny 1 Aogositra 2013 no fanapahan-kevitra farany momba ilay fanangonan-tsonia nataonà olona 25, isan'izany ireo mpikambana ao amin'ny antoko islamista hafa izay niatrika ny fijoroan'ny Jamaat tamin'ny Janoary 2009. |
4 | In 2008, the country's election commission made it mandatory for political parties to register if they wanted to participate in elections. | Tamin'ny 2008, noteren'ny komisionim-pifidianana hosoratana ara-panjakana daholo ny antoko politika rehetra raha toa ka te-handray anjara amin'ny fifidianana. |
5 | This ruling means Jamaat cannot participate in the upcoming January 2014 parliamentary elections. | Midika izany fa tsy mahazo mandray anjara amin'ny fifidianana antenimiera ho avy izao, izay atao amin'ny Janoary 2014, ny Jamaat. |
6 | The party was already widely criticized for its opposition to Bangladesh's independence. | Efa voatsikera mafy io antoko io noho ny nanoherany ny fahaleovantenan'i Bengladesh. |
7 | But the call to limit Jamaat-e-Islami recently intensified during the massive Shahbag protest movement which began in February 2013 (see Global Voices special coverage) and called for capital punishment for war crimes committed during the country's liberation from Pakistan in 1971. | Nefa niha-mafy hatrany ny fandraràna ny hetsika ataon'ny Jamaat-e-Islami vao haingana nandritra ilay hetsi-panoherana Shahbag izay niandoha tamin'ny volana Febroary 2013 (jereo ny tatitra manokan'ny Global Voices), ary nitaky ny fanasaziana azy faran'izay henjana noho ny heloka bevava natao nandritra ny fanafahana ny firenena teo ambany vahoan'ny Pakistana tamin'ny 1971. |
8 | Many of the accused were high-ranking Jamaat members, and in March 2013, top Jamaat-e-Islami party leaders Delwar Hossain Sayeedi and Ali Ahsan Mohammed Muojaheed were sentenced to be hanged by a special war crimes tribunal for their involvement. | Maro amin'ireo voapanga ireo no mpitarika ambony ao amin'ny Jamaat, ary tamin'ny volana Martsa 2013, voaheloky ny fitsarana manokana momba ny heloka an'ady ho faty mihantona i Delwar Hossain Sayeedi sy Ali Ahsan Mohammed Muojaheed, mpitarika ny Jamaat-e-Islami, noho ny nandraisany anjara tamin'izany. |
9 | Several other party officials were found guilty of crimes against humanity and the trials are underway. | Mpitarika antoko maro hafa no fantatra fa meloka noho ny heloka bevava atao amin'ny maha-olona ary efa an-dàlana ny fitsarana azy ireny. |
10 | Jamaat activists attacked law enforcers in Dhaka during a protest against trial of their leaders accused of war crimes. | Mahery fo an'ny Jamaat mifanandrina amin'ireo mpitandro filaminana tany Dhaka nandritra ilay hetsika fanoherana ny fiampangana ny mpitarika azy ireo ho nanao heloka an'ady. |

13 | Jamaat, as a political party, has a large and ideologically motivated cadre base across Bangladesh and is currently allies with the main opposition BNP. | Antoko politika mivelatra sy masaka ara-poto-kevitra ary manerana an'i Bengladesh ny Jamaat, ary amin'izao fotoana izao dia mifandray amin'ny antoko mpanohitra BNP. |
14 | However, many Bangladeshis are skeptic about their use of religion in politics as evident in Bangladesh general election 2008, where it got only 4.6% votes and only 2 seats out of 300 constituents (39 contested). | Hita taratra tamin'ny fifidianana solom-bavambahoaka tamin'ny 2008 anefa fa betsaka amin'ny Bengali no miahiahy ny fampiasany ny fivavahana amin'ny politika, izay nahazoany 4.6%-n'ny vato ary seza 2 moja tamin'ny 300 (39 nolavina). |
15 | Blogger Jyoti Rahman posted a deeper analysis of the Jamaat factor in Bangladesh politics a few months ago. | Nanao famakafakana lalina mahakasika ny politikan'ny Jamaat ny mpitoraka bilaogy Jyoti Rahman, volana vitsy lasa izay. |
16 | He talks about Jamaat's financial and ideological ecosystem: | Ambarany ao ny momba ny toe-bola sy rafitra ara-potokevitry ny Jamaat : |
17 | In the quarter century since the party's relaunch, the Jamaat has made considerable inroads in several non-state sectors as well. | 25 taona aty aorian'ny nisian'ny antoko, dia niditra tany amin'ny sehatra tsy miankina maro ihany koa ny Jamaat. |
18 | Islami Bank, whose management is affiliated with the Jamaat, has become the third largest bank in the country. | Nanjary fahatelo amin'ireo banky lehibe indrindra ao amin'ny firenena ny Islami Bank izay tantanan'ny Jamaat. |
19 | Jamaat-supported hospitals and coaching centres provide affordable health care and education to urban, working and the lower middle classes. | Ireo toeram-pitsaboana sy ny toeram-pikarakaram-batana tohanan'ny Jammat dia mitondra betsaka amin'ny fitsaboana sy fanabeazana ho an'ireo sokajin'olona an-drenivohitra, ireo mpiasa ary ny madinika. |
20 | The party has particularly strong financial ties with countries in the Gulf, which helps with these enterprises. | Manana fifamatorana ara-bola matanjaka amin'ireo firenena any Golfa ny antoko, izay manampy azy ireo amin'ny raharahany. |
21 | Funding and ideological support also comes from the radical Islamic discourse among the diaspora Bangladeshi community in the UK. | Avy any amin'ny fiaraha-monin'ny Islamista Bengali any UK ihany koa ny fanampiana ara-bola sy ara-potokevitra. |
22 | The petition, in its argument against Jamaat's registration, listed four main points about Jamaat that violate Bangladesh's constitution: | Io fanangonan-tsonia io, izay ahitana ny hevitra manohitra ny fanoratana ny Jamaat ara-panjakana, dia ahitàna teboka efatra lehibe milaza ny nanitsakitsahany ny lalàm-panorenana: |
23 | 1) Jamaat in principle does not recognize the undisputed power of the people's representatives to make laws. | 1) Tsy ankatoavin'ny Jamaat ny fahefana tsy refesi-mandidin'ireo solontenan'ny vahoaka hanao lalàna. |
24 | 2) Election Commission prohibits registration of communal parties | 2) Voararan'ny Komisiona momba ny fifidianana ny fijoroana ara-kominalin'ireo antoko |
25 | 3) Discrimination on ground of religion or gender: Jammat's charter does not allow any woman or non-Muslim to hold its top post | 3) Fanavakavahana ara-pivavahana sy ara-tsaranga : tsy eken'ny sata mifehy ny Jamaat hitazona toerana ambony ny vehivavy na ny tsy Silamo |
26 | 4) Not locally registered - the Jamaat is a chapter of a foreign organization born in India with units all over the world. | 4) Tsy voasoratra ara-panjakana - Antoko teraka tany ivelany tany India ary manana rantsana manerana izao tontolo izao ny Jamaat. |

30 | On Monday, 5th of August the vacation bench of the Appellate Division turned down the plea of Jamaat-e-Islami seeking a stay on the operation of the High Court (HC) verdict declaring illegal its registration as a political party. | Tamin'ny 5 Aogositra, notsipahan'ny Sampan-draharaha momba ny fahabangan-toerana ao amin'ny fitsarana ny fitakian'ny Jamaat-e-Islami hampiantona ny didim-pitsarana navoakan'ny Fitsarana Avo (HC), izay manambara fa tsy ara-dalàna ny fijoroan'io antoko politika io. |
31 | However Jamaat can appeal to the Appellate Division on the HC verdict when the court resumes from vacation. | Nefa dia azon'ny Jamaat ampiakarina io didim-pitsarana navoakan'ny Fitsarana avo io rehefa miverina miasa ny fitsarana. |
32 | The party has declared a nationwide 48 hour strike from 12th of August, 2013 protesting the High Court verdict. | Niantso fitokonam-be nasionaly ny antoko ny 12 Aogositra 2013 ho fandàvana ny io didim-pitsarana io. |
33 | Meanwhile, the High Court has summoned Jamaat-e-Islami leaders, asking them to explain why calling strikes against its verdict should not be treated as contempt of court. | Etsy an-daniny dia nampanantsoin'ny Fitsarana Avo ireo mpitarika ny Jamaat-e-Islami, mba hanazavàny ny hoe nahoana ny ilay hetsi-panoherana ny didy navoakany no tsy horaisina tahaka ny faniratsiràna ny fitsaràna. |
34 | Many netizens expressed their satisfaction after hearing of the cancellation. | Maro ireo mpiserasera amin'ny aterineto no naneho ny fahafaham-pony rehefa nandre ilay fanafoanana. |

37 | Can't contest in forthcoming elections. | Tsy afaka mandray anjara amin'ireo fifidianana ho avy. |
38 | Good riddance! | Tsara ho azy izany! |

40 | Blogger Kazi Mamun compared Jamaat with gangrene and mentioned on Facebook: | Nampitahain'i Kazi Mamun, bilaogera, aminà vay ary nambarany ao anaty Facebook izany : |
41 | Call it ‘inhuman' or not, I don't care. | Na antsoina hoe “tsy araka ny maha-olona” io na tsia, tsy mampaninona ahy. |
42 | Jamaat is like a gangrene. | Ohatra ny vay ny Jamaat. |
43 | You can't stop the degradation if they can't be uprooted. | Tsy voasakanareo ny fahasimbana raha tsy ny fotony mihitsy no maty |
44 | Diaspora Twitter user Zara Kadir (@zarakadir) could not accept the cancellation of Jamaat's registration, arguing that this will be a hindrance to democracy: | Tsy neken'ny mpiserasera amin'ny Twitter Zara Kadir (@zarakadir) amin'ny Diaspora ny fanafoanana ny fijoroan'ny Jamaat, satria manelingelina ny demokrasia : |
45 | And those who are rejoicing that Jamaat is banned, is this still about war crimes? | Ary ireo izay mifaly fa voarara ny Jamaat, tsy mbola mahakasika ny heloka bevava amin'ny ady ve izany ? |
46 | You've damaged democracy. | Ravanareo ny demokrasia. |
47 | Slow clap. | Tehaka maneso. |

50 | Rozob Ali (@RozobAli) reminded people that almost 89 percent of Bangladeshis are Muslims, so Islamist politics cannot be stopped by banning Jamaat-e-Islami: | Mampahatsiahy ny olona i Rozob Ali (@RozobAli) fa Silamo ny 89 isan-jaton'ny Bengali, noho izany tsy voajanon'ny fandraràna ny Jamaat-e-Islami ny politika Silamo : |
51 | Banning an Islamic party will not stop Muslims from being politically active. | Tsy mahasakana ny Silamo tsy hanao politika ny fandraràna ny antoko Silamo iray. |
52 | It will only reinforce the clash of civilisation concept. | Manamafy ny fisian'ny ady an-trano izany. |

54 | Azad Ali (@azadaliCCM) noted that the petition for Jamaat's registration to be canceled was indeed moved by a number of Islamist parties: | Nolazain'i Azad Ali (@azadaliCCM) fa nampian'ireo mpikambana ao amin'ny antoko Silamo hafa ny fangatahana ny fanafoanana ny fijoroan'ny Jamaat : |
55 | So in #Egypt it's the Salafi Nour party that helped coup & in #Bangladesh it's some Sufi group who didn't want Jamaat in Politics!? | Any #Egypt ny antoko Salafi Nour no nanampy tamin'ny fanonganam-panjakana & any #Bangladesh ny vondrona Sufi no tsy mankasitraka ny fanaovan'ny Jamaat politika ! |

57 | The cancellation of Jamaat's registration with the election commission had many confused as if Jamaat has been banned as a political party. | Misy fifangaroan-javatra eo amin'ny fanafoanana ny fitsanganan'ny Jamaat ara-dalàna sy ny fifidianana raha toa ka tsy ho antoko politika ny Jamaat. |
58 | Blogger and activist Kallol Mustafa cleared this confusion in a Facebook post: | Hazavain'i Kallol Mustafa, mpitoraka bilaogy sady mafana fo amin'ny lahatsoratra ao amin'ny Facebook io fifangaroana io : |
59 | The declaration of Jamaat's registration illegal with the election commission and banning Jamaat's politics are totally different things. | Tena zavatra samihafa ny filazàna fa tsy ara-dalàna ny fijoroan'ny Jamaat amin'ny fifidianana sy fandraràna azy tsy hanao politika. |
60 | After this high court ruling, if the election commission indeed cancels Jamaat's registration, it will not be able to participate in future elections. | Aorian'io didy navoakan'ny fitsarana avo io, raha toa ka foanan'ny komisiona misahana ny fifidianana ny Jamaat, dia mety tsy handray anjara amin'ny fifidianana izy. |
61 | But it does not deter them from carrying out party politics. | Saingy tsy manakana azy tsy hanohy ny fomban'ny antoko izany. |

65 | Some argue that Jamaat uses Islam for their own benefits. | Lazain'ny sasany fa ampiasain'ny Jamaat ny Silamo ho an'ny tombontsoany manokana. |
66 | In 1971, during the Bangladesh Liberation war, members used religion to justify their purge of Hindus and carrying out killings, rape and destruction on Bengalis. | Nandritra ny ady ho fanafahana an'i Bangladesh tamin'ny 1971, nataon'ny mpikambana fitaovana ny fivavahana mba hanamarinana ny fahalotoan'ny Hindou sy ny famonoan'olona, ny fanolanana sy ny fandravana atao amin'ny Bengali. |
67 | Renowned singer and blogger/activist Maksudul Haque wrote on Facebook: | Nanoratra tao amin'ny Facebook ny mpihira fanta-daza sy mpitoraka bilaogy mafana fo, Maksudul Haque: |
68 | When everybody is celebrating the cancellation of registration of Jamaat, I do not rejoice. | Raha toa ka mankalaza ny tsy fanekena ny fitsanganan'ny Jamaat ny olona rehetra, izaho tsy faly. |
69 | Ban them.. that won't be a big deal for me…Their sin is unforgivable… Purge these hyenas from Islam, keep faith in you and boldly say, “They are not Muslims, they are disbelievers”.. Only then those who gave their lives will rest in peace… that day Islam in Bangladesh will be free of sins. | Rarao izy ireo… Tsy zava-dehibe izany amiko… Tsy azo avela ny helony… Diovy ny maha-silamo azy, tano ny finoanareo ary sahia miteny, ” Tsy Silamo izy ireo, tsy mpino izy ireo “… Aoka handry am-piadanana ireo izay nanolotra ny ainy…amin'io andro io no hadio ny Silamo ao Bengladesh. |
70 | The Islamist political party has previously been banned a number of times since its birth in 1941. | Taloha dia voarara matetika ny antoko politika silamo hatramin'ny nisiany tamin'ny 1941. |
71 | They were banned in Pakistan in 1959 and in 1964 and in Bangladesh in 1972. | Voarara tany Pakistana tamin'ny 1959 sy tamin'ny 1964, ary tany Bengladesh tamin'ny 1972 izy ireo. |
72 | In 1979 they were again allowed to work as a political party. | Nomena alàlana ho toy ny antoko politika indray izy ireo tamin'ny 1979. |
73 | Lawyer and Twitter user Shah Ali Forhad (@shah_farhad) observed: | Tsikaritr'i Shah Ali Forhad (@shah_farhad) mpisolovava sady mpiserasera amin'ny Twitter fa: |
74 | If #Jamaat gets banned now, this will not be the 1st time they get banned, but rather the 4th time! | Raha mbola voarara ny #Jamaat izao, tsy vao voalohany izany fa efa faninefany! |
