Gao Hongan was found guilty in the first instance of corruption today (26th). On the same day, personnel changes in the Ministry of Justice were also announced. 24 prosecutors were promoted to chief prosecutors of the first instance. One of them, female prosecutor Lu Huishan, was responsible for investigating the "Gao Hongan case". After the case was prosecuted, she was transferred to the position of public prosecutor and played an important role in the prosecution team.

Li Yusheng, a lawyer at Fidelity Law Firm, said that prosecutors are divided into investigation teams and public prosecution teams. In terms of job arrangements, usually the investigating prosecutors and the court prosecutors are separated, but if the same prosecutor conducts the investigation and prosecution, It is not illegal to hold court. In this case, since it is a high-profile case, it is reasonable and not inappropriate to arrange for the same prosecutor to conduct the investigation and trial.

The legislative purpose of the Corruption Offenses Ordinance

The Corruption Prevention and Control Regulations (hereinafter referred to as the "Corruption Prevention Law") are an important law and regulation. Its legislative purpose is to maintain social fairness and justice, combat corruption, and protect the legitimate interests of public resources. This article will delve into the legislative purpose of the anti-corruption law and its key role in maintaining social order and national stability.
1. Preventing abuse of public power
One of the primary purposes of corruption laws is to prevent the abuse of public power. Government agencies and public sector officials must uphold the principles of impartiality, fairness and honesty when performing their duties to ensure the rational distribution of resources and the protection of interests. Abuse of power, solicitation of bribes or other forms of corruption can lead to a breach of trust in power, undermine society's trust, and even damage the country's image. Anti-corruption laws ensure that public officials do not abuse their power by clarifying illegal acts and corresponding penalties, thereby safeguarding the legitimate use of public resources.
2. Protect national and public interests
Another important legislative purpose is to protect national and public interests. Corruption often leads to squandering and waste of public resources, undermining a country's financial stability and sustainable development. The implementation of anti-corruption laws will help ensure that government funds and resources are properly allocated to meet the needs of public services such as education, health care, and infrastructure. This helps improve the country's economic prosperity and social well-being while ensuring the continued use of the country's resources.
3. Promote a society governed by the rule of law
One of the legislative purposes of the anti-corruption law is to promote the construction of a society ruled by law. In an environment rife with corruption and embezzlement, the principle of the rule of law is often ignored and the law no longer functions as a medium for fairness and justice. By enacting and enforcing anti-corruption laws, the government sends a strong message about upholding the rule of law, demonstrating that the law will apply equally to everyone, regardless of status or wealth. This encourages members of society to abide by legal provisions and take legal responsibility for violations, thereby helping to build a just and orderly society.
4. Improve government transparency and accountability
The legislative purpose of anti-corruption laws also includes improving government transparency and accountability. Transparency is a key feature of government behavior that helps the public monitor government decisions and actions. By requiring government agencies and officials to disclose financial information and report assets and liabilities, anti-corruption laws increase government transparency and reduce opportunities for abuse of power. In addition, it strengthens accountability systems by allowing the public to lodge complaints about government misconduct and ensuring that those involved are appropriately punished.
in conclusion
The legislative purposes of the Corruption and Crime Regulations are multi-faceted, aiming to maintain social fairness and justice, prevent the abuse of public power, protect the interests of the country and the public, promote the construction of a society ruled by law, and improve government transparency and accountability. The implementation of this law and regulation is crucial to social stability and national prosperity. It sends a strong warning against corrupt practices, emphasizes the importance of the principle of the rule of law, and ensures the legitimate use of public resources, thereby benefiting the entire society.
