Why should the state revise the criminal procedure law?

Amending the criminal procedure law is the need to strengthen and innovate social management and maintain social harmony and stability. At present, China is in a period of social transformation and prominent contradictions, with high incidence of criminal cases, increased serious violent crimes and new changes in crime types and means, which pose a severe challenge to China's social management.

Accurately punishing crimes through criminal proceedings and maintaining social order play an important and irreplaceable role in strengthening and innovating social management. It is of great significance for the country's long-term stability and people's life to amend the Criminal Procedure Law in time, focusing on ensuring public safety and resolving social contradictions, and solving outstanding problems that are strongly reflected by the people and affect social harmony and stability.

Amending the criminal procedure law is the need to deepen the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism. Deepening the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism is an important strategic deployment made by the central government from the height of developing socialist democratic politics and accelerating the construction of a socialist country ruled by law. To further standardize judicial behavior and promote the construction of a fair, efficient and authoritative socialist judicial system, it is necessary to speed up the improvement of the criminal procedure system. Amending the criminal procedure law is a concrete measure to implement the central government's requirements for deepening the reform of the judicial system and working mechanism.
