About 15 people have died while in police detention this year, according to widespread media reports and several judges and prosecutors will now inspect some of China's nearly 3,000 detention centers, where criminal suspects are held.A few weeks ago, authorities were reporting only five deaths. State media reported that on Friday, five prisons in the south-western state of Sichuan were opened to the public, allowing more than 1,000 local residents to see the conditions inside the jails for themselves. With the inspections, there are the aspirations of more civilized management and fair law enforcement and to prevent and reduce crimes.
