摘要
未经人民法院依法判决,对任何人都不得确定有罪;对采取刑讯逼供、暴力、威胁等非法方法收集的言词证据,应当依法予以排除;证据不足,不能认定被告人有罪的,应当按照疑罪从无原则,依法作出无罪判决……近日,最高人民法院、最高人民检察院、公安部、国家安全部、司法部联合印发《关于推进以审判为中心的刑事诉讼制度改革的意见》,意见亮点纷呈,回应了社会关切。
No person shall be convicted without being tried as such by the people's court according to the law. Verbal evidence shall be excluded if collected through extorting confessions by torture, violence, threat, or other unlawful means. If the defendant cannot be found guilty due to insufficient evidence, the collegial panel shall render an acquittal sentence on the basis of in dubio pro reo (no punishment in doubtful cases) The Guidelines on Trial-Centered Criminal Procedure Reform issued by the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate, along with the Ministries of Public Security, State Security and Justice, have responded to the concern of the society with sparkling highlights.
