| 单词 | Turning Queen's evidence |
| 释义 | 供出對同案犯不利的證據 Colloquially, where a person involved in criminal activities instead of being prosecuted gives evidence for the prosecution against a co-accused. A co-accused who turns Queen’s evidence can obtain immunity from further process by giving evidence against another. Such practice is subject to much criticism and judicial expression of distaste: Chan Wai-keung v R [1995] 2 All ER 438, 1 WLR 251, 1 HKC 7 (PC); HKSAR v Leung Kai-chung [2002] 1 HKLRD 771. See also Prison informer warning; Supergrass. 口語上，當某個涉及刑事活動的人沒有被檢控，反而為控方針對同案被控人提供證據。同案被控人供出對同案犯不利的證據，可因提供針對另一人的證據，而獲豁免遭受進一步法律程序。此等為遭受很多評擊及司法方面表示反感：Chan Wai-keung v R [1995] 2 All ER 438, 1 WLR 251, 1 HKC 7（樞密院）；HKSAR v Leung Kai-chung [2002] 1 HKLRD 771。另見 Prison informer warning; Supergrass。 |
