Similar Cases Retrieval for Illegal Electronic Data in Criminal Proceedings and Suggestions for Improving ()
ABSTRACT
In China’s current system of rules for the exclusion of illegal evidence, the focus
of adjustment is on the exclusion of illegal verbal evidence and illegal physical
and documentary evidence. Based on the analysis of similar case search, this paper
distills the following rules and legislative proposals: whether electronic data
collected by illegal methods should be excluded, the evidence can be differentiated
into defective evidence and illegal evidence according to the severity of the illegal
methods, and the decision of whether to exclude
it can be made on a case-by-case basis. Defective evidence can be corrected and adopted through legal procedures, but
illegal evidence that cannot be examined to determine its authenticity, or
the time, place and manner of its production or acquisition are in doubt and cannot
provide the necessary proof or reasonable explanation should be excluded.
