Drug Lord Escapes Jail Through Mile-Long Tunnel
毒品大亨通过地下隧道越狱
Mexican police are used to searching for infamous drug baron El Chapo, and once again Joaquin Guzman is on the run after escaping from a maximum security prison. Road blocks are in place and an airport closed as they try to recapture the cartel leader, thought to be worth a billion dollars.
墨西哥警方搜捕臭名昭著的毒枭“矮子(El Chapo)”已经是家常便饭。而现在，锡那罗亚贩毒集团头目华金·古斯曼从安全等级最高的监狱逃跑后再次开始逃亡生涯。警方设置了路障，关闭了机场，试图重新抓获这名毒品巨头，据信他的身家高达10亿美元。
"Camera!"
“照相机！”
When he was arrested last year, the government were confident that they can keep him locked up, they even rejected an offer from the US to take care of his incarceration, but as the details of this audacious escape are revealed, the government is once again facing embarrassment. He escaped from Altiplano jail through a sophisticated tunnel, 10 meters deep. It stretched for over 1.5 kilometers and surfaced in a nearby house.
当他去年被逮捕时，政府相信他们能够把他关住。他们甚至拒绝了美国代为监禁的要求。但是随着这次胆大妄为的越狱行为细节的披露，政府再次面临尴尬。他通过一条地下10米的复杂的隧道逃离阿尔蒂布兰诺监狱。隧道延伸了1.5千米，出口在附近一座房屋。
"The tunnel is equipped with PVC pipes presumably for ventilation as well as lighting and a motorcycle mounted on tracks to be used as a traction mechanism, probably to extract the dirt from the evacuation, and also used to move tools and machinery for drilling".
“隧道装有PVC管，可能是用来通风和照明，轨道上还有一辆摩托车用作牵引机制，可能是用来吸走灰尘，也用来运输挖掘工具和机械。”
Guzman became prominent in the 1980s as the leader of one of Mexico's biggest drug cartels. They shipped cocaine and other drugs around the world. He was arrested in Guatemala in 1993, in 2001 he escaped prison by bribing officials and hiding in a laundry basket, and it was last year that he was recaptured in Mexico. For the government desperate to take control of a country's drug problem, he was a major coup. Organized cartels in the country are responsible for cooking and selling drugs on an industrial scale as filmed by Sky News, it's estimated that 80,000 people have been killed in cartel violence since 2006.
上世纪80年代，古斯曼作为墨西哥最大的毒品卡特尔头目而出名。他们在世界各地运送可卡因和其他毒品。他于1993年在危地马拉被捕，2001年通过贿赂官员藏在洗衣篮里逃狱。去年，他在墨西哥再次被捕。对一个难以控制毒品问题的政府来说，能将他逮捕是巨大的成功。就像天空新闻拍摄到的，墨西哥有组织的毒品卡特尔大规模炼制和出售毒品，据估计，自2006年以来，大约有8万人死于毒品卡特尔暴力活动。
When police captured Guzman in 2014, they also uncovered a series of tunnels between his safe houses, a similar setup for the one built for his escape this weekend. Police said they are questioning 18 people in connection with the breakout, and they'll no doubt face tough questions themselves about how they could let such a powerful and dangerous man escape for a second time.
当2014年警方逮捕古斯曼之后，本周末，他们还揭秘了监狱和他的安全屋之间一系列隧道。警方表示，他们怀疑18人与这次越狱有关。毫无疑问，他们自己也将面临质疑，为何让如此强大，如此危险的人物再次越狱。
