throw out
米国の裁判所がインド副領事官を再び起訴しました。注目した表現は”throw out”です。「投げる」という意味の他にも「（議案・提案を）否決する，（裁判官が起訴などを）却下する」というものがありました（Wisdom英和辞典（第三版）』（三省堂））。提案を投げ捨てているというイメージでしょうか。目的語が具体的なモノでなくても”throw”が使えることが分かりました。(Ume)
Devyani Khobragade: Indian diplomat re-indicted in US
A US grand jury has re-indicted an Indian diplomat whose arrest strained US-India relations.
Devyani Khobragade is accused of visa fraud and underpaying her housekeeper, lawyers in New York said.
It comes two days after a US judge threw out virtually identical charges on the grounds that Ms Khobragade had diplomatic immunity.
She has always denied any wrongdoing. India was "disappointed" by the decision, a government spokesman said.
"Any measures consequent to this decision in the US will unfortunately impact upon efforts on both sides to build the India-US strategic partnership, to which both sides are committed," said Syed Akbaruddin, according to the AFP news agency.
