《中英對照讀新聞》Hampshire police release ’lettuce’ e-fit of suspect 漢普郡警方公布嫌犯的「萵苣」辨識圖
◎ 魏國金
British police have admitted having technical issues after releasing an e-fit of a burglary suspect which looks like a man wearing a lettuce.
英國警方在公布一張看起來像是頭戴萵苣的男竊嫌臉部辨識圖後,坦承出現技術問題。
Officers released the image after a distraction burglary in which £60 was stolen from an elderly woman in Stockbridge, Hampshire. But the picture appeared to show the man with a lettuce on his head.
漢普郡斯塔克布里治地區發生一名年長婦人被偷走60英鎊的詐騙竊案後,警員公布這張圖像,但照片似乎顯示該男頭上有顆萵苣。
A spokesperson said that "while the hair on this image may not be of the best quality, it takes nothing from the overall clarity of the facial features". He added: "It would therefore be wrong to withhold the release of the e-fit just based on this technical issue."
一名發言人指出,「這張圖像的頭髮部分或許不是當中品質最優的,但無損臉部特徵的整體清晰」。他說︰「因此,只因這個技術問題而不公布這張歹徒的辨識圖是錯的。」
The suspect had asked the woman for money for gardening work but stole £60 from her handbag. He is described as white, between 40 and 45, about 5ft 8ins, with a round clean shaven face, large round eyes and with wavy blonde or greying hair.
這名嫌犯以園藝工作為由向受害婦女要錢,卻從她的手提包偷走60英鎊,他被描述是白人、介於40歲至45歲之間,身高5呎8吋,有張鬍子刮乾淨的圓臉,圓圓大大的眼睛,以及金色鬈髮或花白頭髮。
A Victim Support spokesperson said: "Victims or witnesses to a crime highly expect the criminal justice system to bring someone to justice. People put their trust in the system and the software and expect results, which would explain why people might be baffled by the picture."
受害者支持團體的一名發言人說︰「犯罪的受害者或目擊者高度期待刑事司法體系能伸張正義。人們信賴該體系與軟體,並期待結果,這可以說明為何人們對這張照片感到不解。」
