  1. 第 1 次更新沙特法院撤销工人因 Facebook 评论被判处的死刑——但其能否获释仍未确认当前位置

一条 Facebook 评论让阿诺詹·西瓦拉萨（Anojan Sivarasa）在沙特阿拉伯从五年监禁刑期变成死刑。如今，死刑判决已被撤销，但这名斯里兰卡移民工人是否获得自由仍未得到确认。撤销判决消除了据报道的死刑处罚；但这并不意味着他已被宣告无罪、获释或获准回国。1

斯里兰卡副外交部长阿伦·赫马钱德拉（Arun Hemachandra）于2026年10月14日宣布了最高法院的裁决。该国外交、海外就业与旅游部当天证实了这一进展，并称其为“重大突破”。对西瓦拉萨而言，这是一个影响极其重大的变化。但这还没有最终说明他将受到何种处罚，或接下来几天将身在何处。4 29

公开报道依据的是斯里兰卡官方公告及相互印证的新闻报道。沙特最高法院的实际裁定、案号、裁决理由以及有关羁押或后续程序的指示均未找到。这份缺失的文件很重要：撤销一项判处死刑的判决，并不一定等同于推翻原定罪。

法院采取行动的日期也相差一天。通讯社和 TimesOnline 于10月14日刊发的报道称，赫马钱德拉将裁决日期定为10月13日。BBC和《印度教徒报》则称，裁决于星期三、10月14日作出。官方声明的报道支持10月13日为裁决日期、10月14日为公布日期这一说法，但由于裁定原文缺失，已发表报道中的日期差异无法得到最终确定。4 6 1 2

监禁刑期如何变成死刑

西瓦拉萨是泰米尔裔印度教徒，来自斯里兰卡东部省卡尔穆奈附近的纳尔皮蒂穆奈。他前往沙特阿拉伯工作。不同报道分别称他从事技术、工程和建筑相关工作，但没有证据能确定一个经过核实的具体职业或雇主。他的年龄也有不同说法：BBC称他27岁，《独立报》和其他几篇报道则称他24岁。两种年龄都未能确定。11 1 5

这起检控事件的起因，是6月底一段广泛传播的视频。视频中，一名男子踢了一只跟随印度教朝圣者的狗。另一名参与者发表贬损印度教神祇的言论后，西瓦拉萨用泰米尔语回应，谈及先知穆罕默德。沙特法院认定这些言论具有侮辱和亵渎性质。案件涉及宗教表达，并非指控西瓦拉萨实施了身体暴力。11 23

西瓦拉萨称，他在大约10分钟内删除了评论。他还发布了一段道歉视频。但删除评论并未阻止截图传到他的雇主和沙特当局手中。目前尚未找到评论的准确措辞和道歉全文；对二者的描述不应被误认为是逐字记录。11 23

他于7月初在达曼地区被捕。国际特赦组织英国分会10月7日发布的案件声明称，逮捕日期为7月1日；其他报道则称是7月2日。此后，阿哈萨刑事法院判处他五年监禁，并处以300万沙特里亚尔罚款。各方对7月具体判刑日期的说法也不一致，而原判决书无法找到，因而无法消除这些差异。74 11 1

最初的检控涉及沙特《反网络犯罪法》第6条，以及被认定为破坏宗教价值观或公共道德的内容。西瓦拉萨的辩护方对五年刑期提出质疑，但未获成功。检方另行要求根据伊斯兰法（即沙里亚法）将相关行为按亵渎罪处理。随后，东部地区上诉法院判处死刑。20 23

这一区别很重要。这并非单纯因为提出上诉就自动导致了死刑。检方另行要求适用更严厉的法律处理，是事态升级的一部分。详细的案件报道将死刑判决日期定为2026年9月17日；BBC的报道只称判决在9月作出，没有具体说明日期。11 20 1

重大突破，但后续问题尚未解决

斯里兰卡于10月初派遣一个法律团队前往利雅得。团队成员包括议员兼总统律师费泽尔·穆斯塔法（Faiszer Musthapha）、总统律师乌普尔·库马拉佩鲁马（Upul Kumarapperuma）、哈菲尔·法里兹（Hafeel Farisz）以及一名副总检察长。大使阿米尔·阿贾瓦德（Ameer Ajward）通过驻利雅得使馆协调了上诉事宜。据《每日镜报》和次日刊发的另一篇 LankaLeader 报道，最高法院上诉于10月11日提交。13 65 3 81

赫马钱德拉称，持续的外交和法律努力发挥了作用，并感谢沙特政府、斯里兰卡官员、斯里兰卡海外就业局以及两国法律团队。这证实了官方对上诉相关工作的说法。但这并未说明最高法院撤销判决的法律理由——无论是驳回判处死刑的依据、发现程序瑕疵，还是要求重新审议。4 29

判决撤销前的报道说，西瓦拉萨被关押在达曼中央监狱。据报道，大使于10月初、约在10月8日探视了他，随后一份官方说法称他健康状况良好。这些报道都早于最高法院裁决，无法证明他此后的羁押状况。56 32

此前的家属说法称，他在狱中遭到袭击或受伤，并称约从9月28日起与他的联系有限。据报道，沙特当局将伤情描述为打斗造成的轻微抓伤。相关情况及各方不同说法均未得到独立证实。之后有关他健康状况良好的说法，本身并不能厘清此前发生了什么。11 77 32

穆斯塔法告诉 BBC Sinhala，官员正在审查裁决。库马拉佩鲁马告诉《印度教徒报》，预计会作出新的判刑。这是参与此案的律师对未来的预期，并非已有证据表明替代刑罚已作出、听证会已排期，或案件已正式发回下级法院。1 2

已知

  • 斯里兰卡官员证实，最高法院撤销了判处死刑的判决。 429

未知

  • 西瓦拉萨判决后的羁押状况、任何替代刑罚，以及原定罪的最终状态，均未得到确认。
  • 目前没有找到能够证明原判五年监禁和300万里亚尔罚款是否仍可执行的裁定。

后续

  • 要确认他能否出狱并返回斯里兰卡，需要有实际生效的法院命令，以及任何后续的羁押或量刑决定。

现有措辞没有任何内容证实，原判监禁刑期和罚款已自动恢复或被取消。负责任的结论应比宣称案件已经结束更为有限：死刑判决已被撤销，而西瓦拉萨能否获得自由及最终将受何种处罚仍未解决。1 2 14

播出原貌 18 行
  1. Saudi Arabia's Supreme Court has overturned Anojan Sivarasa's death sentence over a Facebook comment.
  2. The Sri Lankan migrant worker had faced execution after an online religious argument. His family is still waiting to learn whether he can return home. What does the reversal mean for his freedom and any punishment he may still face?
  3. Sri Lanka's Deputy Foreign Minister Arun Hemachandra announced the reversal on October 14. The Foreign Ministry confirmed it that day, calling it a significant breakthrough. Officials haven't confirmed whether Sivarasa has been released or where he is now.
  4. Sivarasa comes from Narpittimunai, near Kalmunai in Sri Lanka's Eastern Province. He's a Tamil Hindu who travelled abroad for work. His prosecution took place in Al-Ahsa, and before the reversal he was reported held at Dammam Central Prison.
  5. Hemachandra says the court ruled on October 13, one day before his announcement. He credited sustained diplomatic and legal work by Sri Lanka's government. His statement specifically identifies the judgment that imposed the death penalty.
  6. The decision has also been dated October 14, leaving a one-day discrepancy. Sri Lanka's government confirms the death sentence was set aside. The court's reasons and its instructions for what happens next still aren't clear.
  7. Screenshots of Sivarasa's comment reached his employer and Saudi authorities. The argument developed in late June around a circulating video of a man kicking a dog that had followed Hindu pilgrims. Another participant insulted a Hindu deity, and Sivarasa replied in Tamil with remarks about the Prophet Muhammad.
  8. Sivarasa says he deleted the comment within about ten minutes. He also posted an apology video, but screenshots continued circulating. The Saudi courts treated his remarks as blasphemy, an offence involving expression considered insulting to religion.
  9. Saudi authorities arrested him in the Dammam area in early July. A contemporaneous human-rights chronology gives July 1; July 2 also appears in the case history. Authorities seized his devices, and his accounts were removed. The prosecution centred on his words during that religious argument.
  10. The Al-Ahsa Criminal Court initially imposed five years in prison and a fine of three million Saudi riyals. It used Saudi Arabia's cybercrime law, which covers material treated as undermining religious values or public morals.
  11. Sivarasa's defence challenged the five-year sentence, and the court rejected that challenge. Prosecutors separately sought to treat his conduct as blasphemy under Sharia, Islamic law. The appellate court then imposed death. The prosecution's demand for harsher legal treatment was part of that escalation.
  12. The Eastern Region Court of Appeal imposed death on September 17. A Supreme Court appeal followed on October 11. Hemachandra dates the reversal to October 13, and announced it on October 14. No execution date had been publicly announced.
  13. Sri Lanka sent a legal team to Riyadh in early October. It included lawmaker and senior lawyer Faiszer Musthapha, Upul Kumarapperuma, Hafeel Farisz and an additional solicitor general. Lawyers from both countries worked on the appeal.
  14. Ambassador Ameer Ajward coordinated the appeal through Sri Lanka's embassy in Riyadh. Hemachandra thanked the Saudi government, Sri Lankan officials and both legal teams. He also credited the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment for its work.
  15. The ambassador visited Sivarasa before the reversal, around October 8. A later official account described him as in good health. Earlier, his family alleged he'd been attacked or injured in prison and described limited contact after about September 28.
  16. Saudi authorities described his injuries as minor scratches from a fight. The circumstances of that episode remain unclear. The later statement about his health doesn't settle what happened earlier, and the visit preceded the Supreme Court's decision.
  17. Musthapha says Sri Lankan officials are reviewing the ruling. Kumarapperuma expects a fresh sentence, but no new punishment has been confirmed. The final status of the conviction and the earlier prison term and fine remains unclear.
  18. The death-penalty judgment has been removed. Sivarasa's ability to leave prison and return to Sri Lanka still depends on the custody and sentencing decisions that follow.
