The Supreme Court in Mexico has ruled that a Frenchwoman sentenced to 60 years in prison on kidnapping charges should be set free. The case against Florence Cassez led to a serious diplomatic rift between France and Mexico. Will Grant reports from Mexico City. It was the result which Florence Cassez had been hoping for for seven years since she was first accused of being part of a kidnapping ring in December 2005. Three of five Supreme Court judges ruled there were serious irregularities in the legal process against her and ordered her immediate release from her 60-year prison sentence. Since she was first detained, Florence Cassez has consistently accused the authorities in Mexico of using shaky witness statements against her and of denying her consular assistance.

一名法國婦女因綁架指控被判60年監(jiān)禁，墨西哥最高法院裁定應該釋放此人。 這起有關弗洛朗絲?卡塞的案子曾使法國和墨西哥發(fā)生嚴重的外交沖突。 Will Grant在墨西哥城報道。 2005年弗洛朗絲?卡塞首次被控參與綁架團伙，自此7年來她一直希望能有今天這個結果。 最高法院的五名法官中有三名法官認定此案的法律程序存在嚴重違規(guī)問題，并下令立即施放被判60年徒刑的卡塞。 自首次被捕以來，弗洛朗絲?卡塞一直指控墨西哥政府使用不可靠的證人證詞來指控她，還拒絕給予她領事援助。 BBC世界新聞
