Open door in sensitive cases helps

Information to be released in some instances 'to promote social harmony and stability'

National prosecutors are required to provide information to litigants and others directly involved in judicial cases when such cases involve major and sensitive matters, a senior official under the Supreme People's Procuratorate said.

The move is intended to ensure judicial fairness and prevent petitions and mass incidents that can grow out of misunderstandings, said Wan Chun, director of the SPP's research department.
