  Chinese courts equipped with anti-corruption supervisors

     BEIJING, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) -- Justices in China's Supreme People's
Court, as well as judges in local courts, will start working side by
side with anti-corruption supervisors from Monday.

     On Friday, 14 full time supervisors were installed in the Supreme
People's Court (SPC) to oversee judges, court-order enforcers and other
court staff.

     The SPC said in a statement Sunday that 24,521 anti-corruption
supervisors had been in place in 2,392 courts across the country.

     In local courts, the posts of anti-corruption supervisors were
concurrently held by senior judges, it said.

     The system was born out of the efforts "to better combat corruption
and redress injustices in a timely manner," said Shen Deyong, SPC
executive vice-president.

     The Supreme People's court had issued a tentative measure to
facilitate coordination between the internal check system and external
supervision departments, said the statement.

     It also said courts across China would work to optimize the system
with measures such as appointing more supervisors and setting up regular
exchange and appraisal systems for anti-corruption supervisors.
