侦查人员出庭作证的范围与保护

The Rang and Protection of Investigators to Testify in a Court

我国2012年刑事诉讼法第五十七条规定,现有证据材料不能证明证据收集的合法性的,人民检察院可以提请人民法院通知有关侦查人员或者其他人员出庭说明情况;人民法院可以通知有关侦查人员或者其他人员出庭说明情况。有关侦查人员或者其他人员也可以要求出庭说明情况。经人民法院通知,有关人员应当出庭。此规定对于司法实践中查明案件事实真相、抑制违法侦查行为、充分实现辩护权、改革和完善刑事审判制度等具有重要意义。但是,规定的侦查人员出庭作证的范围比较模糊,条文粗糙,实践中较难把握,同时,没有相应规定出庭作证的侦查人员的保护,有待思考和研究。

The article 57th in the cfimi nal procedure law in 2012 stipulates that the people＇s Procuratorate can request the people＇s court to inform the relevant investigation or other people to testify r in court when the existing evidence can not prove the legitimacy of evidence collection; the people＇s court can notify the relevant investigation or other people to testify in court, while they also can request the court to allow them to testify. Once received the notification from the people＇s court, all relevant people must appear in court. This provision is of great significance to ascertain the facts of cases, suppress the illegal investigation, realize the fight to defend fully, reform and perfect the system of criminal justice and judicial practice. However, the range of investigators to testify in court in this provision is fuzzy, rough and difficult to deal with in practice; meanwhile, it doesn＇t stipulate the corresponding rules to protect the testified investigators and remains to be thought and researched.
