China's supreme court mulls crackdown on terror videos

- China's Supreme People's Court (SPC) is considering ways to halt the spread of violent terror videos and audios, according to a statement issued Tuesday.
The SPC urged courts at all levels to intensify a high-pressure crackdown on terrorists and separatists. Subordinate courts in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, hit by series of bloody terrorist attacks, will get special instructions on dealing with terror cases in a "harsh and quick" manner, the statement said.
In civil and commercial cases, the SPC said equal protection should be given to enterprises and people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang to secure their legal interests, boost employment and improve their livelihood.
The SPC vowed to improve the skills of court staff and promote bilingual training of judges.
Hardware support will also be enhanced in Xinjiang courts.
