홍콩 (AP) — 소더비 측은 인도 정부가 해당 유물 판매에 강력히 반대하며 경매 중단을 요청한 데 따라, 예정되었던 불교 유해 관련 보석 경매를 잠정 연기했다고 수요일 발표했다.

경매 회사에 따르면, 경매에 출품될 보석들은 기원전 240년에서 200년경에 제작되었으며, 역사적 부처의 유골과 함께 매장된 성유물 속에서 1898년 인도 북부에서 발굴되었다고 한다.

하지만 인도 문화부는 화요일 페이스북 글에서 소더비 홍콩 지점에 법적 통지를 보내 즉시 판매를 중단하라고 요구했다고 발표했습니다. 문화부는 경매가 '인도 법, 국제 기준, 유엔 협약'을 어겼다고 비난하며, 인도와 전 세계 불교 공동체의 중요한 종교적, 문화적 유산인 신성한 불교 유물을 포함하고 있다고 말했습니다.

월요일 소더비 홍콩 지점에 편지가 보내졌습니다. 이 편지에는 경매에 나온 성스러운 물건을 인도 정부에 돌려주고, 경매 회사와 크리스 페페가 공식적으로 사과하라는 요구가 있었습니다. 크리스 페페는 이 물건을 찾은 영국 사람 윌리엄 페페의 증손자라고 합니다.

In the letter, the Indian government warned that if the auction house did not meet their demands, they would face legal action. They also said they would start a public campaign to show how the auction house is continuing unfair practices from the colonial period and selling religious items in a way that is not right.

소더비는 수요일에 발표한 성명에서 인도 정부가 제기한 문제들을 알고 있으며, 위탁자들과의 합의로 이번 경매를 연기했다고 말했습니다.

이번 조치는 당사자 간 건설적인 논의의 장을 마련하여, 향후 관련 업데이트는 적시에 공유될 것임을 시사했다.

By Wednesday, certain auction-related webpages on Sotheby's were no longer accessible.

인도 문화부는 수요일 페이스북을 통해 이번 개입에 따라 경매가 연기되었음을 "기쁘게 공지한다"고 발표했다.
