无罪推定原则视野下的证明责任分配

The Allocation of Burden of Proof under the Principle of Presumption of Innocence

无罪推定原则作为刑事诉讼制度中的一项基本原则,要求由控诉方承担证明责任。但是基于一系列诉讼价值的考量,针对一些特殊案件或者特殊事实,法律规定在诉讼中实行证明责任倒置,由被告人承担证明责任。为了更好地保障人权,证明责任倒置的情形必须以法律的明文规定为依据。目前,我国刑事法律关于此类的规定太少,期待将来能够进一步改善。

As a cardinal rule of the criminal procedure system,the principle of presumption of innocence requires that the prosecution bears the burden of proof.However,in consideration of kinds of procedural values,we stipulate that in some special cases or facts,the defendant bears the burden of proof.In order to protect human rights well,＂the reversion onus of proof＂ is limited to some situations provided by the law.At present,we lack such kind of rules in the criminal law system,looking forward to improvement in the future.
