Interpretation of Evidence Law under Criminal Procedure Code of China

evidence is only the material that can be used to prove the facts of the case, and its authenticity needs to be reviewed by the judicial authority. Only when the evidence itself is true can the true situation of the case be proved. False evidence will cause errors in the determination of the case. Therefore, this paragraph clearly stipulates that "the evidence must be verified to be true before it can be used as the basis for the verdict." This is the fundamental principle of the use of evidence. Violation of this principle will lead to wrong cases, false cases, indulgence of crimes or infringement of the legal rights of citizens.
