　　巴基斯坦一名9个月大的婴儿被控谋杀警察，警方经过一周的调查，最终撤销指控。

　　Baby Muhammad Mosa Khan was accused of being part of a ruthless gang of gas thieves who tried to kill police by hurling stones at them during a raid.

　　当事婴儿名为默罕默德·穆萨·汗，他被指认为某偷油帮派的一员，该帮派成员在一场暴乱中向警察扔石头，试图谋杀警察。

　　Last week he was pictured at court in Lahore sitting on his grandfather's lap, contentedly sucking on a bottle of milk as the charges against him were read out.

　　上周小穆萨在拉合尔法庭受审。他被拍到坐在爷爷的膝盖上，法官阅读控诉时，他正心满意足地捧着奶瓶喝牛奶。

　　A Pakistani lawyer said the judge announced the decision after Saturday's court hearing during which police said it had dropped the charge against the boy.

　　一位巴基斯坦的律师透露，周六的听证会上，警察撤销了对小穆萨的指控，这之后法官做出了最终决定。

　　He said police had registered the case against the toddler and his family members without investigating the matter and the judge had sought an explanation.

　　这位律师称警察未经调查就对穆萨和他的家人提出诉讼，而法官则需要一个解释。

　　The case highlights the country's dysfunctional criminal justice system where even children are not immune from questionable legal decisions.

　　这个案子反映了巴基斯坦落后的刑事审判体系，对于存在疑问的法律判决，连孩子都不能幸免。

　　The child's father said the group had been protesting against a shortage of electricity in their area.
