BEIJING, Dec. 26 (Xinhua) -- China has reiterated1 its ban on corporal punishment and forced self-incrimination in police investigations3 in a revised regulation on the handling of criminal cases.
The revised regulation, released on Wednesday by the
Ministry4 of Public Security, is aimed at
helping5 courts adapt to the newly
amended6 Criminal Procedure Law, which stresses "respecting and protecting human rights."
The regulation features a provision that bans
coerced7 confessions8 and torture in its general principle chapter, as well as clarifies the range of activities that may be recorded or videotaped to boost real-time
investigation2 monitoring.
It further clarifies the rights of suspects who are in
detention9, such as their right to have contact with lawyers, inform family members of forced measures and receive food.
A substantial number of rules related to lawyers' engagement in criminal
proceedings10, evidence usage and investigative measures were modified.
Stipulations for criminal cases concerning foreigners and international police cooperation were also modified, according to the regulation.
The revised regulation will take effect on Jan. 1, 2013, along with the amended Criminal Procedural Law.
