关于刑事见证问题的几点思考

刑事见证制度是刑事侦查活动的监督机制之一,是程序正义的必然要求与具体体现。然而,刑事诉讼法的最新修订及其司法解释并没有完成刑事见证制度构建与完善的任务,而对刑事见证人法律地位的明确以及资格的科学界定等则是其重要的组成部分。要使刑事见证人充分发挥其应有的作用,就必须构建与我国法治水平相适应的刑事见证制度。

Reflections on Criminal Witness

The criminal witness system is not only one of the supervision mechanisms of criminal investigation activities, but also the inevitable requirement and concrete embodiment of procedural justice. However, the latest amendment to Criminal Procedure Law and its judicial interpretation which pay attentions to the legal status and the qualifications of criminal witness, have not completed the task of constructing and perfecting the criminal witness system. In order to make the criminal witnesses play an active role, we must establish a criminal witness system which adapts to the law level of our country.
