Abstract: The accused has the right to repent in application of the Lenient System for Admission of Guilt and Acceptance of Punishment. The procuratorial organs and courts do not need to separately examine the reasons for repentance, but these reasons can be used as basis for convicting and sentencing. The problem issue is an eternal theme—fairness and efficiency. The author holds that the Lenient System for Admission of Guilt and Acceptance of Punishment does not apply to cases of statutory sentence for life imprisonment or death penalty. [vezi tot]
