摘要
"马尧海案"所引发的巨大争议,迫使我们重新审视我国刑法所规定的"聚众淫乱罪"。从刑法学角度,基于刑法的谦抑性,无被害人犯罪应当除罪化;从宪法学角度,公民享有自我决定权,对公民权利的限制必须符合宪法意义上的比例原则。私密性的聚众淫乱行为如被入罪,即属于无被害人犯罪。这侵害了公民的自我决定权,亦不符合宪法意义上的比例原则。
The case of Ma Yaohai has aroused so great controversies that accusation of collective licentiousness promulgated in Chinese Criminal Law has to be reexamined. On the one hand, in respect of criminal law, its principle of reduction determines that victimless crimes shall be decriminalized. On the other hand, from perspective of constitution, citizens are entitled of self-determination, and confinement of their citizens’ rights shall comply with the proportion principle. Once this privately collective sexual behavior is criminalized, it would be called victimless crime, which would infringe a citizen’s self-determination rights, as well as the proportion principle regulated in the constitutional law.
