Courts must apply the law and not be swayed by online debate
THE SUPREME 1 PEOPLE'S Court has approved the death sentence handed down to Lin Senhao, a student at Fudan University in Shanghai, for murdering his roommate. His father says he expects the execution to be carried out within days. Discussions about whether the country should still have the death penalty may continue, but this particular case has come to its conclusion, says a Beijing Times editorial:
Whatever a court's ruling is, it is always open to challenge, and there are always those who want to abolish capital punishment and those who defend it.
We live in an age of mass media, and it is impossible to prevent judges from reading newspapers and browsing 2 social networks. We must accept the fact that judges are aware of the public opinion about a case.
However, the courts should not be swayed by it. They should base their judgments 3 solely 4 on the law and the facts of the case.
Concerning Lin's case, the discussions about the death penalty might continue, but the case should come to an end now that all the appeals have been made and the verdict upheld. The media also need to act responsibly, and respect the judicial 5 system if it is following due procedure. The media may express opinions but must not try to influence the outcome of a case, as that is illegal and creates injustice 6.
Following the supreme court's approval of Lin's death penalty, scholars and media outlets 7 are still discussing about whether death penalty should be challenged, but the appeal process has been completed and the court's verdict stands.
The judiciary, the media and the public all need to interact with each other in an acceptable way so as to establish the rule of law.
