Turkish term (edited): faili meçhul cinayet

bağlama göre unsolved murder case
belirli süre içinde failin bulunamaması halinde cold case haline gelir.

cinayet, tecavuz belli bir sucu zaten "unknown murder", "unknown rape" şeklinde ifade edebiliriz. Ancak soruyu soran kisinin bir de genel anlamda "faili meçhuller" diye sorusu var. bunu da "unknown cases" ifadesi karşılar.

Aradığınız terimin doğru karşılığı COLD CASE şeklindedir. Wikipedia'dan aşağıda kopyaladım:

[edit] Characteristics of a "cold case"

[edit] Violent or major crime
Typically, cold cases are violent or other major felony crimes, such as murder or rape which unlike unsolved minor crimes are generally not subject to a statute of limitations.


[edit] Identifying a suspect
A case is considered unsolved until a suspect has been identified, charged, and tried for the crime. A case that goes to trial and does not result in a conviction can also be kept on the books pending new evidence. Many times, those investigating the case have a suspect in mind but have not been able to find evidence sufficient to charge the suspect with the crime.


[edit] Recent improvements in forensics
With the advent of improving DNA testing and other forensics technology, many cold cases are being re-opened and prosecuted. Police departments are opening cold case units whose job is to re-examine cold case files.


[edit] Famous examples
A well-known cold case [1] is the case of Judge Joseph Crater, a judge who stepped into a cab in 1930, and subsequently became the "missingest man in New York". In April, 2005, police revealed that they had found some evidence in the 1950s which was related to the case: a handwritten note by Stella Ferrucci-Good, in an envelope reading "Do not open until my death", claimed to give the location of Crater's body.[2] Human remains were found at the location, but lacking technology such as Genetic Fingerprinting police were unable to confirm the identity of the remains, which were later reburied in a mass grave.

Another cold case is the unofficially unsolved murder of Hollywood director William Desmond Taylor who was found murdered in his home in 1923. In spite of several suspects and even a deathbed confession it is still considered unsolved.

The most recent well-known cold cases involve the still-unsolved murders of rap artists Tupac Shakur in 1996 and the Notorious B.I.G. in 1997.

Conspiracy theorists consider the John F. Kennedy assasination on November 22, 1963 as the ultimate cold case.

Bir aşternatif olarak bu cevabıekleyeyim istedim. Dava cihetinden bakıldığında fali meçhul olan veya faili firarda olan bir dava durum itibariyle kapanmamış, sonuçlanmamıştır.

Bu yüzden 40 yıllık olay tekrar soruşturması başlatılıyor. Bu durumda "unsolved case" için "to re-opening file/case" ifadesi kullanılıyor.

murders by unknown perpetrators
veya
murders by unknown assailants

Daha az görülse de, değişik kaynaklarda "unidentified perpetrators" geçiyor. Mesela:
http://www.eupm.org/Clanci.asp?ID=1506&lang=eng
Ama gördüğüm kadarıyla "unknown" daha uygun. Aslında hangisinin en uygun olduğunu İngilizce Kudoz'a da sorabilirsiniz.

Diğer taraftan, bağlamınız izin veriyorsa, diğer arkadaşların önerdiği yanıtı da dikkate almanızı öneririm.

Soru/yanıt:

TANER GODE:
Çok daha fazla cinayetin işlendiği sanayileşmiş batı toplumu veya polis/yargının/infaz güçlerin zayıf olduğu 2 toplumlu ülkelerde bu olaylar çok daha fazla olduğuna göre daha kısa bir ifade yok mudur acaba?

BALABAN:
Soruyu soran kişi politik cinayetlerden söz ettiğini açıkça belirtmiş. Bu nedenle, Özden'in kendi yanıtında belirttiği gibi, bu soruda "faili bulunamayıp dosyası kapatılmış" (ya da açık kalmış, her neyse) "her türlü cinayet anlamında düşünmemek" lazım. Bu nedenle aradığınız kısa ifadenin bu soru için mevcut olmadığını düşünüyorum.

"...been able to be provided to prove State involvement in unknown perpetrator killings. The Court has set a high standard on the amount and type of evidence ..."
hrlr.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/reprint/1/1/35.pdf

Again a project is underway to train the officers to investigate and solve the cases, who will be commissioned on the unknown perpetrator killings.

Turkish term (edited): faili meçhul cinayet

"Unknown actor murders" ya da "actor unknown murders" olarak da geçiyor bazı yerlerde ama sanırım "unsolved murders" hatta bazen "unknown murders" daha yaygın olarak kullanılıyor ve aynı şeyi ifade ediyor.

Öldürülen kişinin önemli olduğunu belirtmeniz için murder yerine assassination kelimesinin tercih edilmesi yeterli olur. "unsolved assassination" kullanımının örneklerine bakabilirsiniz...
