✦ 法律明确性与程序正义的缺失:《刑法》《刑事诉讼法》视角下的陈京元案
Deficiency of Legal Clarity and Procedural Justice: A Perspective from the Criminal Law and Criminal Procedure Law of the PRC on the Chen Jingyuan Case
一、核心法律规定概述
I. Core Legal Provisions
中文:《中华人民共和国刑法》强调罪刑法定原则(第3条):法律明文规定为犯罪的行为,才可定罪处罚。
English: The Criminal Law of the PRC emphasizes the principle of legality (Article 3): Only acts explicitly defined as crimes by law can be punished.
中文:刑法同时要求罪责刑相适应(第5条),不得滥用刑罚。
English: It also requires proportionality between crime and punishment (Article 5), prohibiting abuse of criminal sanctions.
中文:《中华人民共和国刑事诉讼法》强调程序正义:
公正审判(第11条):人民法院依法独立行使审判权。
辩护权(第32条):被告人有权获得辩护。
公开审理(第152条):除特殊情况外,案件应当公开审理。
English: The Criminal Procedure Law stresses procedural justice:
Fair trial (Article 11): Courts exercise judicial power independently.
Right to defense (Article 32): Defendants have the right to legal defense.
Public hearing (Article 152): Trials should be public except under special circumstances.
二、案件分析
II. Case Analysis
1. 模糊罪名与罪刑法定原则的冲突
中文:以“寻衅滋事”定罪,罪名模糊,缺乏明确界定,容易导致任意适用,违背刑法第3条的罪刑法定原则。
English: Conviction under “picking quarrels,” with vague and undefined boundaries, risks arbitrary application, violating Article 3’s principle of legality.
2. 刑罚适用与比例原则的背离
中文:若言论行为被定性为犯罪并处以刑罚,可能与行为的社会危害性不相称,违背刑法第5条的比例原则。
English: Treating speech acts as crimes and imposing punishment may be disproportionate to their social harm, contravening Article 5’s proportionality principle.
3. 程序正义的潜在缺失
中文:若审判过程缺乏独立性、公开性或辩护权保障,则违背刑事诉讼法第11条、第32条、第152条的要求。
English: If the trial lacks independence, openness, or protection of defense rights, it violates Articles 11, 32, and 152 of the Criminal Procedure Law.
三、结语与启示
III. Conclusion and Reflections
中文:《刑法》《刑事诉讼法》提醒我们,制度的合法性在于罪刑法定与程序正义。陈京元案所显之压制,是对法律明确性与程序保障的背离,也是对法治根基的动摇。
English: The Criminal Law and Criminal Procedure Law remind us that institutional legitimacy rests on legality and procedural justice. The suppression in Chen’s case departs from legal clarity and procedural safeguards, undermining the foundation of rule of law.
中文:若制度不能落实罪刑法定与程序正义,社会将失去公民信任,法治也将失去正当性。
English: If institutions fail to uphold legality and procedural justice, society loses citizens’ trust, and the rule of law loses legitimacy.
