Defense lawyers bear the responsibility to preserve the lawful rights and interests of criminal suspects, but must not use verification evidence to guide criminal suspects or defendants to change their confessions or collude in violation of the facts.
The Criminal Procedure Law stipulates that: From the date a case is transferred for review and prosecution, defense lawyers may verify relevant evidence with criminal suspects or defendants. "Verification of relevant evidence" means the verification of all kinds of evidence related to the conviction and sentencing of the alleged crime.
At present, there is a view in the practice circles that defense lawyers can only verify physical evidence when verifying evidence from suspects and defendants, and in order to prevent suspects and defendants from retracting their confessions, the confessions and witness testimony of the suspects and defendants in the same case cannot be informed of the suspects and defendants before the trial begins, and the suspects and defendants cannot be verified.
Suspects or defendants' knowledge of evidentiary information related to the case before trial is a necessary condition for their own defense, and it is an of course component of their right to defend, and it is necessary for the defense lawyer to verify the evidentiary information, including personal evidence, from the parties, and it is necessary for the effective exercise of the right to defend.
