The absence of rules on the allocation of the burden of proof in cases of justifiable defense in China has not only made it difficult to form a basic consensus in theory, but has also easily led to 'dif-ferent verdicts for the same case' in practice, which has seriously restricted the judicial application of jus-tifiable defense. Reviewing the internal mechanism of the theory of the allocation of the burden of proof reveals a deep interaction between the sharing of the risk of proof and the substantive normative ele-ments. The attribute of element determines the scope of objective burden of proof, and the establishment of subjective burden of proof must take account of the system demand of a country's criminal litigation structure. To solve the problem of the burden of proof in cases of justifiable defense in our country, it should be made clear that the defendants have the necessity to provide evidence rather than the burden of proof under the objective situation, and on that basis the leading role of function investigation of judicial organs in fact-finding and rights-protection shall be activated. |
