Professor Yang Wenge of Nankai University Law School concluded the seminar. Professor Yang pointed out that arrest and bail pending trial are two sides of the same coin, and the status of arrest is too high in the current judicial practice, and in concept we should continue to insist on reducing the application of arrest measures. In addition, the following aspects can be considered to activate the application of bail pending trial to achieve a lower arrest rate: first, the selection of prosecutors responsible for approving arrests needs to be considered, second, the understanding of social dangerousness conditions can be strengthened through the issuance of guiding cases, and third, the accountability mechanism needs to be considered and improved.
