BEIJING, Sept. 27 (Xinhua) -- China officially launched a website to live broadcast court trials Tuesday in the latest move to increase judicial transparency.

The live trials will be used to cover various cases and better safeguard people's rights to know and to supervise, said Zhou Qiang, head of China's Supreme People's Court, at the launch ceremony.

The website, tingshen.court.gov.cn, is China's fourth online platform for publicizing court information, following three websites for disclosing trial procedures, judgement documents and the enforcement of court decisions.

Logging on the website, the public can watch live streams of court trials across the country.

At 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, the website was broadcasting five separate cases, including one concerning suspect Wu Qiang, who was standing trial in Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province, on a charge of intentional injury.

Replays of cases and notice of future trials are also available.

The launch of the website will help reform China's litigation system and make it more trial-focused, while improving the trial process and ensuring fairness, Zhou said.

China is striving to let people feel fairness and justice in every single judicial case, he said.
