The Supreme People's Procuratorate has announced that the number of special offices that investigate the sexual abuse of minors will be increased nationwide.
"Under these measures, the judicial authorities will offer victims a welcoming and relaxing environment in which we will be able to fully establish the details of their case, meaning they will not have to undergo repeat questioning," said Zheng Xinjian, director of the procurator's office that handles cases involving minors.
Zheng said more than 310 of the offices - which are decorated like kindergartens to help victims relax and reduce anxiety levels - have already been established in a number of provinces and regions.
