據報道,薩達姆和7名前政權的官員將于今日出庭受審。薩達姆的律師哈利勒·杜萊米說,他在第一天的審判中將向法官提出申請延期審判三個月,以便準備辯護以及聯絡其他一些律師組成律師團為薩達姆辯護。伊拉克檢察人員指控薩達姆在1982年制造了"杜賈爾村慘案"。如果罪名成立,薩達姆將可能被判處死刑。
外電報道中有這樣一句話:Saddam's lawyer said Tuesday he would ask for a three-month
adjournment at his client's trial for a 1982
massacre, and challenge the court's competence to hear the case. The trial
was to begin on Wednesday.
adjournment的意思是"休會、延期",它的動詞形式是adjourn,如:The meeting will be adjourned
till next Wednesday. (會議延期到下周三舉行。);We adjourned the meeting for
lunch.(我們暫時休會,去吃午飯。)adjourn還可以用來表示“轉移地點”,例如:The meeting adjourned to New
York.(會議轉移到紐約舉行。)
