No, according to the provisions of China's criminal procedure law, lawyers exercise the right to read papers from the date of case review and prosecution. In most cases, the time of arrest is before the time of review and prosecution. After the arrest, the lawyer can meet the client, but after the case file enters the stage of examination and prosecution, he may not have the right to read and copy the case file materials, but he is not allowed to show the case file materials to the client and his family. Therefore, the parties and their families have never seen the file. Of course, the evidence that the procuratorate accused the suspect of committing a crime needs to be presented in court for cross-examination. In other words, during the trial, the parties and their families can hear or see the evidence cited by the public prosecutor.
