BEIJING, Oct. 11 (Xinhua) -- China's Supreme People's Court (SPC) on Saturday said it will publicize information on 3,281 spokespersons for 2,995 courts at various levels across the country.

　　Sun Jungong, spokesperson of the SPC, said at an event marking the fifth anniversary of SPC's news briefing system that as of September, a total of 2,995 courts have spokespersons, including the SPC, 31 higher courts, 383 intermediate courts and 2,580 basic courts.

　　Sun added that the information of the spokespersons will be released through the SPC website, encouraging people to contact them.

　　He called for courts to take advantage of new media and study both judicial work and the people's information demand to make judicial work more transparent.
