摘要
起诉便宜原则是现代各国刑事诉讼普遍确立的一项起诉原则。在"一国两制"方针下,香港作为承袭英国普通法地区之一,实行起诉便宜原则,公共利益作为运用起诉便宜原则的基本准则,而中国大陆地区实行以起诉法定原则为主,起诉便宜原则为辅,未将公共利益纳入起诉裁量的范围。另外,大陆地区与香港在适用起诉便宜原则的目的、条件以及制约机制等方面存在明显的区别。大陆地区应该借鉴香港有关起诉便宜原则的立法,规定将公共利益纳入检察机关是否起诉考量的范围,扩大酌定不起诉的适用范围,以完善我国的起诉制度。
Prosecuting discretion is a worldwide used principle in the criminal procedure. As the policy of One Country,Two systems prevails,Hong Kong still follows British Common Law to carry out the doctrine of prosecuting discretion with public interests as its fundamentality; while the China's Mainland adopts prosecuting discretion as an addition to its major legal prosecution,without taking public interests into consideration when exercising prosecuting discretional rights. On the other hand,even when employing this practice of prosecuting discretion,there appear distinct differences between China's Mainland and Hong Kong,in terms of purposes,conditions and restriction mechanism. To improve its prosecution system,China should learn from Hong Kong in this aspect by including public interests into the prosecution and expanding the scope of discretionary non-prose-cution.
