人权保护视角下的无罪推定——由李怀亮案引发的思考

无罪推定以人权保护为起点，又以人性尊严为皈依。“无罪推定原则”在新《刑事诉讼法》（2012年3月修正）中表现为“不得强迫自证其罪规则”和“非法证据排除规则”，新《刑事诉讼法》将“人权保护”和“无罪推定”纳入其中，是我国立法的一大进步，但仍然存在一定的问题。要将“无罪推定原则”落到实处，必须明确“人权保护”是刑事诉讼法的首要目的，提高公民的法律意识，缓解公检法机关办案压力，真正实现司法公正。

Presumption of Innocence in the Perspective of Protection of Human Rights-- Thought Evoked by the Case of Li Huailiang

Presumption of innocence begins with protection of human rights, and ends with human dignity.“The principle of presumption of innocence”in the new Criminal Procedural Law （Amended in March, 2012） is represented as“the rules of the Privilege against Self-incrimination and Illegal Evidence Exclusion”. The incorporation of “protection of human rights” and “presumption of innocence” into the new Criminal Procedural Law is a great progress of China’s legislation, though some problems remain. To effectively implement “the principle of presumption of innocence”, what should be done includes specifying that“protection of human rights” is the primary goal of Criminal Procedural Law, heightening citizens’ law awareness, relieving Public Security Department’s stress of handling cases, and achieving the real judicial justice.
