Can a lawyer report fraud on behalf of a victim?

Victims of fraud can entrust a lawyer to write a complaint or report the crime, but the report is usually made by the victim himself, and the lawyer cannot report the crime to the public security agency on behalf of the victim.

Article 110 of the "Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China": Any unit or individual who discovers criminal facts or criminal suspects has the right and obligation to report it to the public security organ, the People's Procuratorate or the People's Court.

Victims have the right to report and accuse criminal facts or criminal suspects that infringe upon their personal or property rights to the public security organs, people's procuratorates or people's courts.

The public security organs, people's procuratorates or people's courts shall accept reports, accusations and reports. If the matter does not fall under one's own jurisdiction, it shall be transferred to the competent authority for handling, and the whistleblower, complainant, or whistleblower shall be notified; if the matter does not fall under one's own jurisdiction and emergency measures must be taken, emergency measures shall be taken first and then transferred to the competent department.

Where criminals surrender to the public security organs, people's procuratorates or people's courts, the provisions of paragraph 3 shall apply.
