以审判为中心背景下公安技侦人员出庭作证问题研究

Study on Public Security Technical Investigators Testifying in Court from the Perspective of Trial Center

在以审判为中心的诉讼制度改革背景下,侦查人员出庭作证是提高庭审实质化的重要途径。在一般刑事案件庭审中,侦查人员出庭作证并不少见,但是在运用到技术侦查的严重犯罪案件中,通知技侦人员出庭作证还较少。技侦人员出庭作证的主要问题在于:法律并没有对其作出具体规定,保障出庭的制度不够完善,这可能给技侦人员出庭带来极大被动。要解决上述问题,首先要完善法律规定,明确技侦人员出庭的身份与拒不出庭的法律后果;其次要完善出庭作证的保障制度,明确责任豁免和加强权利保障,从而发挥技侦人员出庭作证应有的优势。

Under the background of the trial-centered litigation system,investigators testifying in court is an important way to improve the substantiation of the trial.In common criminal cases,it is not uncommon for investigators to testify in court,but in serious criminal cases which involve technical investigation,it is still a new practice for investigators to testify in court.At the same time,it should be noted that the main problems of technical investigators testifying in court are no specific provisions on it in the law,and inadequate system to safeguard their security after their appearance in court,which brings great trouble to them.To solve the above problems,first of all,efforts should be made to improve the legal provisions,clarify the witness identity of technical investigators to appear in court and the legal consequences of refusing to appear in court.Secondly,it is necessary to improve the safeguard system of testifying in court,clarify the exemption of responsibility and strengthen the protection of rights,so as to give full play to the advantages of technical investigators’testimony.
