“兩高”助力新冠疫情防控 依法保護“最美逆行者”

日前在十三屆全國人大四次會議上發佈的最高人民法院工作報告和最高人民檢察院工作報告指出，過去一年全國各地法院和檢察機關爲疫情期間維持社會秩序、保障醫護人員安全作出了巨大努力。

Chinese people experienced a sound living and working environment amid the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, thanks to the urgent and great efforts of courts and procuratorate organs across the country last year, according to the annual work reports of China's top court and top procuratorate.

根據最高人民法院工作報告和最高人民檢察院工作報告，去年新冠疫情暴發後，國人能享有良好的生活和工作環境，這要感謝全國各地法院和檢察機關的緊急行動和巨大努力。

The reports were submitted to the ongoing fourth session of the 13th National People's Congress, the country's top legislative body, for deliberation on Monday.

3月8日，“兩高”報告已提交正在舉行的十三屆全國人大四次會議審議。

After the novel coronavirus hit the country, courts nationwide began intensifying their strength in maintaining order during pandemic control and maintaining social stability by issuing legal documents as well as resolving criminal cases and disputes involving the pandemic, Zhou Qiang, president of the Supreme People's Court, said while delivering the top court's work report to national legislators.

最高人民法院院長周強作最高人民法院工作報告時指出，新冠疫情來襲後，全國各地的法院開始加大力度維持抗疫期間的社會秩序，並通過發佈法律文件、處理刑事案件和涉疫糾紛來維持社會穩定。

A total of 6,443 people in 5,474 criminal cases were penalized for pandemic-related crimes in 2020, including Ma Jianguo, who was executed for killing workers engaged in epidemic control, the report said.

報告稱，2020年依法快審快結涉疫犯罪案件5474件、6443人，對殺害防疫工作人員的馬建國等人依法判處死刑。

The execution was carried out by a court in Yunnan province in July after the top court approved the death penalty of Ma for killing two epidemic control workers in February.

馬建國在去年2月故意殺害兩名疫情防控工作人員。經最高人民法院複覈通過，雲南省的一家法院去年7月對馬建國執行死刑。

The report also said courts nationwide issued 34 influential cases involving the pandemic last year, giving tougher punishments to those cheating medical workers who aided hard-hit Hubei province, using fake charity institutions to get donations or creating or spreading pandemic-related rumors.

報告還指出，去年疫情期間，最高法發佈34個涉疫典型案例，全國法院嚴懲詐騙援鄂醫護人員、假冒慈善機構騙捐、造謠傳謠等犯罪行爲。

Yu Maoyu, deputy head of the top court's general office, said one of the key phrases for Chinese courts was "protecting rights of medical workers".

最高人民法院辦公廳副主任餘茂玉指出，中國法院2020年的一個關鍵詞就是“維護醫務人員權益”。

"In 2020, courts took many measures to guarantee medical security and safeguard medical order," Yu said. "In order to protect those who braved the pandemic, we harshly punished people who intentionally tore off medical workers' preventive clothing."

“過去一年，人民法院出臺措施保障醫護人員安全、維護良好醫療秩序。”餘茂玉說，“嚴懲故意撕扯醫用防護裝備等犯罪行爲，依法保護‘最美逆行者’。”

Other behaviors also were punished more heavily, including price gouging and people who lied about their histories when they returned from abroad and thereby caused many others to be quarantined, the report said.

報告稱，其他受到嚴懲的行爲包括哄擡物價和隱瞞出境史致多人隔離。

While keeping public order by strengthening the fight against crime, "our courts helped enterprises in the resumption of activity and production, promoting development and ensuring the vitality of market entities", Zhou said.

周強表示，除了加強打擊犯罪力度，維護公共秩序外，我國法院還“保護市場主體活力，幫扶企業復工復產”。

The work report of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, which was delivered by Zhang Jun, SPP procurator-general, shows that prosecutors across the country also made great efforts in fighting COVID-19, with 11,000 people charged and 7,227 people approved for arrest for pandemic-related crimes.

最高人民檢察院檢察長張軍作的最高人民檢察院工作報告指出，全國各地的檢察機關也在抗擊新冠疫情方面做出了很多努力，批捕涉疫犯罪7227人、起訴1.1萬人。

Last year, the SPP provided information on a series of policies and a number of typical cases, including people faking nucleic acid tests and producing or selling counterfeit vaccines, and this greatly aided lower procuratorates in solving similar offenses efficiently, it said.

去年，最高人民檢察院就核酸檢測造假、製售假疫苗等發佈一系列司法政策和多個典型案例，指導下級檢察機關依法追訴妨害疫情防控犯罪。

More procuratorial policies and documents were provided to safeguard enterprises and ensure employment, the report said, adding that 23,000 people were charged with crimes of damaging the legitimate rights of private enterprises, up 2.9 percent year-on-year.

報告稱，最高人民檢察院還發布司法政策保企業、穩就業，有力懲治侵害民營企業合法權益的犯罪，起訴2.3萬人，同比上升2.9%。
