An Indian tea vendor caught on film taking water from a train toilet before selling his drinks to passengers has been fined as concerns grow in the country over food safety.

隨著印度民眾對(duì)食品安全的擔(dān)憂加劇，近日印度的一名茶水小販因被拍到從火車廁所取水來(lái)泡茶賣給乘客而被罰款。

The vendor on the Chennai-Hyderabad Express was caught after footage of him and two others coming out of a toilet with large cans used to serve tea and coffee on trains was widely shared.

從金奈開(kāi)往海得拉巴的火車上，這名小販被拍到他和另外兩個(gè)人從廁所里走出來(lái)，手里拎著要用來(lái)泡茶和咖啡的水桶，這個(gè)視頻在網(wǎng)上被廣泛分享。

Indian Railways said in a statement that the “incident has been inquired into in detail” and that the tea seller had been fined the equivalent of ￡1,100.

印度鐵路公司在一則聲明中說(shuō)，“正在調(diào)查這一事件的細(xì)節(jié)”，并表示這名茶水商販已被罰款1100英鎊（合9480元人民幣）。

The video was made on a train at Secunderabad in Telangana state. Only one of the three vendors was licensed.

這個(gè)視頻是在泰倫加納邦塞康德拉巴德的一列火車上拍攝的。三名小販中只有一名有營(yíng)業(yè)執(zhí)照。

The vendor claimed the group were transferring milk from one can to another and did not want to do it in the open.

這名小販稱，他們幾個(gè)人正在把牛奶從一個(gè)桶倒入另一個(gè)桶，而且不想在公開(kāi)場(chǎng)合做這件事。

“The very fact that tea/coffee cans were seen being brought out of the toilet is in itself a wrong practice,” the railway company said.

鐵路公司稱：“把茶桶或咖啡桶從廁所里拿出來(lái)這件事本身就是錯(cuò)誤的做法?！?/p>

A series of recent incidents have put the spotlight on food safety in India. In the eastern city of Kolkata, famed for its Bengal delicacies, police this week unearthed a racket in which tonnes of rotten meat from dumps was being sold to restaurants.

近日的一連串事件讓印度的食品安全問(wèn)題成為了公眾關(guān)注的焦點(diǎn)。本周，在以孟加拉美食聞名的印度東部城市加爾各答，警方偵破了一起非法勾當(dāng)，從垃圾堆撿來(lái)的數(shù)以噸計(jì)的腐肉被賣給飯館。

Sales of meat and poultry in the city have plummeted since authorities seized about 20 tonnes of rotten meat. Police suspect a lot more had been sent out to city restaurants.

自從當(dāng)局查獲了大約20噸腐肉，該市豬牛羊肉和家禽肉的銷量就一落千丈。警方懷疑還有很多腐肉被送往城里的飯館。

“The meat was sourced from dump yards where vultures and dogs fight over carcasses in the fringes of the city,” Koteshwar Rao, a senior West Bengal police officer said.

西孟加拉邦警局的高級(jí)官員柯特什沃·拉奧稱：“這些肉來(lái)自城市周邊的垃圾場(chǎng)，在那里禿鷹和狗為爭(zhēng)奪腐肉而打架?！?/p>

Eight people have been arrested so far, but Kolkata restaurants and cafes have been left reeling from the scandal. “The rumours have resulted in a 50% fall in demand [for meat] across restaurants and eateries,” Taher Ali, a member of the Meat Merchants Association said.

迄今為止有8個(gè)人被捕，但是加爾各答的飯店和咖啡廳自從這次丑聞后就一蹶不振。肉商聯(lián)盟的會(huì)員塔希爾·阿里說(shuō)：“謠言導(dǎo)致大小飯店的肉食需求量下降了50%?！?/p>

The Hotel and Restaurant Association of Eastern India has told its members to only purchase meat from registered suppliers.

東印度酒店和飯店協(xié)會(huì)告訴會(huì)員，只從注冊(cè)供應(yīng)商那里買肉。

According to government figures, food poisoning is one of the most common diseases in India, accounting for 242 of 1,469 serious outbreaks reported last year.

根據(jù)政府?dāng)?shù)據(jù)，食品中毒是印度最常見(jiàn)的疾病之一，去年報(bào)告的1469起嚴(yán)重疫情有242起是食物中毒事件。
