检察机关在刑事审判中的两种职能及其关系

检察机关在刑事审判程序中担负的职能如何定性，是一个颇具争议的问题。检察机关在一审、二审及再审中的活动表明其在刑事审判中实际行使公诉和审判监督两种职能。两种职能的性质不同，二者是互相独立的，因而不宜再由同一机关行使，刑事审判监督职能应该从检察机关的职能中分离出来

Procuratorial Organ's Functions and Their Relations in Criminal Justice Procedure

How to determine the nature of functions performed by the procuratorial organ in criminal justice procedure is a controversial question. Procuratorial organ's activities in the first instance, the second instance and the retrial indicate that it practically exercises functions of both public prosecution and trial supervision in criminal justice procedure. The two functions have different natures and they are independent actually, so it's not proper to entrust the two functions to one organ. Criminal trial supervision should be separated from procuratorial organ's functions.
