Prosecutors in China will investigate cases "which people care about deeply" in 2007, according to the Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP).

The cases are said to include those that make people feel less secure (organized crime and violent crime), harm average citizens' interests or have garnered complaints from large numbers of people.

Commercial bribery cases will be of particular interest to prosecutors. The SPP reported that prosecutors investigated 9,582 commercial bribery cases involving public servants in 2006.
