沉默权制度自古罗马时期开始酝酿,并在英国的“夸尔斯案”中得以初步确立,随后为世界多过所采纳并得到了进一步的发展和完善。但随着社会实际的变化沉默权制度也饱受争议。随着法治的发展,我国也有必要对沉默权制度作出积极的回应。 The system of the right to silence has been brewing since the ancient Roman times and was initially established in Britain’s Quarles case and subsequently adopted and further developed and perfected by the world. However, the system of the right to silence changed with the actual change of the society. With the development of the rule of law, it is also necessary for our country to respond positively to the right to silence system.
