一直以来,扒窃案件在我国长期多发,给人民群众的财产安全造成了极大的威胁。虽然近年来我国对扒窃案件的打击力度逐步提升,但是此类案件的打击难度更大。打击难度之大不仅在于侦破难,在司法实践中,处理起来更是困难重重。针对这一严峻的社会现象,我国刑法修正案(八)适应扒窃案件打击的实际需要,对盗窃罪进行了修改,增加了扒窃直接成立盗窃罪的规定,进一步增加了打击的力度。但在司法实践中仍然显得打击无力,扒窃案件仍然是侵犯人民群众财产犯罪的主要犯罪类型。 All along, pickpocketing cases have been reported in our country for a long time, posing a great threat to people’s property safety. Although the crackdown on pickpocketing cases in our country has been gradually upgraded in recent years, the crackdown of such cases is even more difficult. The difficulty of cracking down lies not only in finding a solution but also in handling difficulties in judicial practice. In response to this serious social phenomenon, the amendments to Criminal Law (8) in our country are adapted to the actual needs of cracking down on pickpocketing cases, and the theft has been amended to increase the direct provisions of pickpocketing theft and further increase the crackdown. However, in the judicial practice, it still appears to be a blow to the weakness. Pickpocketing cases are still the major types of crimes that encroach upon people’s property crimes.
