4 | A Russian blogger in the city of Tomsk has been convicted of publishing hate speech and calls to extremism online and handed a five-year prison sentence, after posting several videos to YouTube and VKontakte. | Rosiana iray bilaogera avy ao an-tanànan'i Tomsk no voaheloka noho ny kabary fankahalàna sy antso ho amin'ny fanaovana an-tendrony tety anaty serasera, ary nomena sazy hifonja dimy taona an-tranomaizina, taorian'ny nanmpakarany lahatsary maro tao amin'ny YouTube sy VKontakte. |
5 | The Tomsk district court has found Vadim Tyumentsev guilty under two articles of the Russian criminal code-Article 282 (“actions aimed at inciting hate or enmity”) and 280 (“public calls to extremist activity”)-and sentenced him to a five-year term in a penal colony. The court also forbid the blogger to publish any content online during the three years after his sentence ends. | Hitan'ny fitsaràna iray ap amin'ny distrikan'i Tomsk ho meloka i Vadim Tyumentsev araka ireo andinin-dalàna roa ao amin'ny fehezan-dalàna Rosiana momba ny heloka bevava-Andininy faha 282 (“hetsika ikendrena ny hanentanana fankahalàna sy fifanoherana”) ary ny faha 280 (“antso atao amin'ny daholobe hanao hetsika fanaovana an-tendrony”)- ary dia nanameloka azy hanefa sazy dimy taona an-tranomaizina any am-ponja. |
6 | According to a Radio Liberty report, the criminal case against Tyumentsev was launched in February 2015, when the prosecutors found fault with two videos the blogger had posted to YouTube and to his profile on Russian social network VKontakte, some of which included rants about the crisis in Ukraine and increased numbers of refugees coming into the country. | |
7 | Tyumentsev had posted dozens of videos on both platforms, but court reports do not indicate which videos the judiciary found fault with. | Noraran'ilay fitsaràna ihany koa ilay bilaogera tsy hamoaka votoaty na inona na inona ety anaty aterineto mandritry ny telo taona aorian'ny fahavitan'ny saziny. |
8 | The investigators accused Tyumentsev of “animosity towards citizens residing on the territory of Luhansk and Donetsk regions of Ukraine” and of “inciting hatred towards persons with refugee status in Russia.” | Araka ny tatitry ny Radio Liberty, ny Febroary 2015 no nanomboka ny raharaha heloka bevava anenjehana an'i Tyumentsev, rehefa nahitàn'ny fampanoavana hadisoana tao anaty lahatsary roa nalefan'ilay bilaogera tao amin'ny YouTube sy ny momba azy tao amin'ilay tambajotra Rosiana VKontakte. |
9 | The prosecution also claimed the blogger went online to call for participation in an unsanctioned peaceful rally and used the Internet to criticize the local authorities. | Tany ampiandohana, nitaky sazy efatra taona ny fampanoavana. Nampangain'ireo mpanadihady i Tyumentsev ho “nampiseho habibiana tamin'ireo olom-pirenena monina ao amin'ny faritr'i Luhansk sy Donetsk any Okraina” sy “nanentana fankahalàna an'ireo olona manana sata mpifindra monina ao Rosia.” |
10 | Tyumentsev's lawyer noted that the calls to participate in the rally “cannot be deemed extremist” and that the local officials were public figures and therefore were liable to receive public criticism according to Russian legislation. | Nolazain'ny fampanoavana ihany koa fa nitety ny aterineto ilay bilaogera mba hiantso ny fandraisana anjara aminà famoriambahoaka am-pilaminana iray tsy nahazoana alàlana sy nampiasa ny aterineto mba hitsikeràna ny manampahefana ao an-toerana. |
11 | The Tomsk blogger does not have a large base of followers on either platform, but has engaged in activism both on and offline in the past. In August 2014 he participated in the “March for Federalization of Siberia.” | Nomarihan'ireo mpisolovava an'i Tyumentsev fa “tsy azo lazaina ho antso ho amin'ny fanaovana an-tendrony” ireo antso ho fandraisana anjara amin'ilay famoriambahoaka ary hoe ireo olona malaza fanta-bahoaka ireo manampahefana ireo ka noho izany dia tsy maintsy mizaka ny tsikera avy amin'ny vahoaka , mifanaraka amin'ny lalàna Rosiana. |
12 | Tyumentsev's sentence is unusually harsh in comparison to other similar cases, which often end in suspended sentences. But it may fall in line with a recent trend of real prison terms for things like unsanctioned protests and online activity. | Tany am-boalohany ilay bilaogera avy ao Tomsk dia fantatra tamin'ny hetsika nataony tety anaty tambajotra sôsialy sy ivelan'ny aterineto: ny Aogositra 2014, nandray anjara tamin'ilay “Diabe ho fanaovana an'i Siberia ho Federasiôna” izy. |
13 | Tyumentsev himself refused to plead guilty in court and said he had initially signed a confession under pressure from the Russian FSB (federal security services). | Nolavin'i Tyumentsev izy tenany ny hiaiky ho meloka teo anatrehan'ny fitsaràna ary nolazainy fa tany am-piandohana izy dia nanao sonia fiaikena heloka noho ny famoretana nataon'ny FSB Rosiana (sampandraharaha mpitandro filaminana federaly). |
14 | The blogger called for a repeat linguistic analysis of his online content and claimed the analysis used to indict him was “a twisted interpretation” of his words. | Nitaky famerenana mandinika ny teny ilay bilaogera momba ireo votoaty nalefany tety anaty aterineto ary nilaza fa “fandikàna vilana” ny teny nolazainy ary nampiasaina handetehana azy ny fandalinana natao. |
15 | The court refused Tyumentsev's demands. | Nolavin'ny fitsaràna ny fangatahan'i Tyumentsev. |
16 | The blogger's lawyer has already filed an appeal with the court. | Efa nametraka antontan-taratasy ho fampàkarana ny didim-pitsaràna sahady ny mpisolovavan'ilay bilaogera. |
