The Regulations on the Use of Police Equipment by People's Republic of China (PRC) People's Police, the Measures for the Equipment of Official Guns and the Regulations on the Management and Use of Official Guns by Public Security Organs give the people's police the power to use weapons and police equipment according to law, which highlights that the use of weapons and police equipment by the people's police in performing official duties according to law is protected by law and regulates gun management.
However, in Zhan Wei's view, the practice of these years has proved that due to various restrictions, the police dare not use guns, which has greatly threatened their own safety. Because the police can't judge the appropriateness of using guns, are timid and don't know how to use guns, it is difficult for the police to take effective measures to stop the infringement when they are subjected to violence in performing their duties.
"The current People's Police Law has only four provisions on the use of weapons and police equipment by the police, and the Regulations on the Use of Police Equipment and Weapons by the People's Police has five chapters 17, but it is relatively general and the design is not rigorous enough, which leads to the confusion of police guns in practice and causes public controversy."
The regulations of China police shooting are as follows: 1. The people's police can take compulsory measures to stop illegal and criminal acts; 2, according to the need, can be used in accordance with the provisions of relevant laws and regulations; 3, the use of police equipment can not be stopped, or there is no weapon to stop, which may have serious harmful consequences, you can use weapons in accordance with the relevant provisions; 4, arson, water, explosion and other acts that seriously endanger the safety of the public * * *, after the warning is invalid, you can shoot. Cheng Lei, an associate professor at the Law School of Renmin University of China, also believes that 1995 People's Police Law has been implemented for more than 20 years, and the social situation has changed greatly. Moreover, the use of weapons is very complicated in practice, and there are also some problems of abusing weapons, which need to be clearly stipulated and authorized by law.
If violent assault on a police officer endangers life safety, you can shoot.
Compared with the current People's Police Law, the revised draft increases the circumstances in which weapons can be used against the People's Police.
Under any of the following circumstances, the people's police may use weapons: committing acts that seriously endanger national security or public safety, or resisting arrest or escape after committing such acts; Committing an act endangering the life safety of others or resisting arrest or fleeing after implementation; Criminal suspects, defendants and prisoners riot, riot, murder, escape, rob the above-mentioned personnel or help to carry out the above-mentioned acts; Guards, guards, warning objects and targets specified by the state are attacked or destroyed by violence or are in imminent danger of being attacked or destroyed by violence; Resist or hinder the people's police from performing their duties according to law by violent and dangerous methods, or violently attack the people's police, endangering the life safety of the people's police.
