加强证人保护有助于鼓励证人出庭作证,促使刑事诉讼良性运转。然而,对证人保护的加强必然在一定程度上限制被告人的基本权利,尤其是被告人所享有的保释权、知悉权、在场权和对质权。应当在被告人、证人权利平衡的视角下加强刑事诉讼证人保护。 Strengthening the protection of witnesses can help to encourage witnesses to testify in court and promote the healthy functioning of criminal proceedings. However, strengthening the protection of witnesses necessarily limits the basic rights of defendants to a certain extent, in particular, the rights of bail, the right to know, the right to present and the right to pledge as defendants. The protection of witnesses in criminal proceedings should be strengthened from the perspective of the balance of rights of defendants and witnesses.
