Judge pledges transparency in courts

Courts in Guangdong province will explore ways to make court proceedings more transparent to the public, said Zheng E, the top judge of Guangdong High People's Court.

Measures include more investment in building an Internet network to publish verdicts and broadcast some major cases, Zheng said.

The Guangdong court also published a white paper in February on how it handled a number of high-profile cases in 2012.
