Public interest litigation cases rise
Print Edition
The number of public interest litigation cases filed by local procuratorial organs more than tripled last year, thanks to extensive support from people from all walks of life, a press release by the Shanghai People’s Procuratorate said yesterday.
A total of 2,437 clues about public interest litigation cases were studied and judged, and some 2,104 cases dealt with by local procurators in the past 12 months, a year-on-year growth of 69.8 percent and 80 percent, respectively, it revealed.
To protect public interest, the city’s procurators have developed an online platform that can be helpful in gathering clues about relevant public interest cases.
“The main problem for us in tackling cases is ‘lack of the clues,’” said Tu Chunhan, chief of the eighth department of the Shanghai People’s Procuratorate. “Big data and other digital technologies used on this platform now provide us with abundant case clues.”
Meanwhile, procurators’ work on public interest litigation has received extensive support from people from all walks of life, including deputies of the National People’s Congress and CPPCC members. As much as 70 percent of clues have been provided by the public.
