聯合國報告 阿富汗法律對婦女不公

A new United Nations report says Afghanistan's judicial system is still failing women, even with the Islamic fundamentalist Taliban out of power.

聯合國一份最新報告說，儘管伊斯蘭原教旨主義的塔利班不再執政，但阿富汗的司法體系仍對婦女不公。

The report released Sunday says only 5 percent of cases of violence against women result in punishment for the criminals.

這份星期天公佈的報告說，在侵犯婦女的案件中，只有5%的罪犯得到懲罰。

The reports also says many Afghan women are financially dependent on the men who attack them.

報告還說，很多阿富汗婦女在經濟上依賴侵犯他們的男子。

Afghanistan's constitution guarantees equal rights for women. Educational and job opportunities for women have improved in recent years.

阿富汗憲法保證婦女享有同等權利，近幾年來婦女在教育和就業機會等方面有所改善。

But the report says cultural and family pressure, along with alleged corruption and abuse of power by judicial officials, leaves many women feeling as if there is nowhere they can find justice.

但是報告說，文化和家庭壓力，以及司法官員被指腐敗和濫用職權，使許多婦女感到申冤無門。

U.N. officials urge the Afghan government to strengthen access to justice for women by adopting institutional and policy reforms, and enforcing laws protecting them from violence.

聯合國官員敦促阿富汗政府通過機構和政策改革，切實執行保護婦女免遭暴力侵犯的法律，進而加強婦女獲得司法保護的機會。
