江苏省高级人民法院院长许前飞博士指出,环境污染犯罪很多情况都涉及单位。但无论是环保行政机关还是当地政府,都不愿意直接追究到单位,往往都是找直接责任人承担责任了事。这些年来,对违法单位的处罚力度一直不到位。这既有当地政府、环保机关的原因,也有公安机关、检察机关、法院等司法机关的原因。如果不加大对单位犯罪的惩处力度,我们就没有办法去提高实际违法成本。数据显示, Dr. Xu Qianfei, president of Jiangsu Provincial Higher People’s Court, pointed out that many cases of environmental pollution involve units. However, neither the environmental administrative authorities nor the local government are willing to directly pursue the units and often find the persons who are directly responsible for the responsibility. Over the years, the penalties for illegal units have not been in place. This is the reason for both the local government and environmental protection agencies as well as the judicial organs such as public security organs, procuratorial organs and courts. If we do not step up penalties for unit crimes, we will have no means to raise the actual costs of illegal activities. Data Display,
