印度最高法院駁回要求繼續拘禁強姦犯的上訴大綱
India's Supreme Court has rejected an appeal to keep a young man in prison. He was one of six males who brutally raped a young woman in 2012.
印度最高法院駁回了要求繼續監禁一名年輕男子的上訴。2012年，六名男子野蠻強姦一名年輕女性，這名男子是其中一人。
The court said Monday "Under the present law, detention cannot be extended beyond three years."
法院星期一說，依照現行法律，拘禁期不能超過三年。
Five of the men were sent to prison, but the youngest, who was 17 at the time, was sent to a correctional facility for three years; the maximum term allowed under Indian law.
其他五名男子已被判刑，但這名年輕男子犯案時只有17歲，所以被送入教養所拘禁三年，按照印度法律，三年是教養拘禁的最長期限。
The Delhi Commission for Women filed the petition to keep the young man, who is now 20, in custody.
德里保護女性權益委員會提出上訴，要求繼續拘禁這名現年20歲的男子。
DCW wrote in its petition the Indian government has not submitted any material "to establish that the mental state of the respondent has been reformed . . respondent continues to have criminal/perverse bent of mind which poses a serious threat to women."
該委員會在上訴書中說，印度政府並未提出任何證據來表明這名男子的心理狀態已得到轉變，而罪惡扭曲的心理狀態將使其繼續對女性構成嚴重威脅。
