Prosecutors expected to better meet public's needs

China's procurator-general has called for procuratorates nationwide to further improve their capabilities in law enforcement to meet higher public expectations.

In the past year, amid people's rising demands for democracy, rule of law, justice, security and a better environment, prosecuting authorities have made consistent efforts to adopt a people-oriented approach in their work, as instructed by President Xi Jinping, according to Zhang Jun, procurator-general of the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

The top procuratorate has restructured its internal systems and formed 10 departments to handle criminal, civil, administrative and public interest cases, he said in an interview.
