Obtaining a guarantor pending trial is not equivalent to pleading guilty. Obtaining a guarantor pending trial is a compulsory measure in China's criminal procedure law. In the process of investigation, prosecution and trial of cases, criminal suspects or defendants are required to provide guarantors or pay deposits to ensure that they will not evade or hinder investigation, prosecution and trial.
 However, obtaining bail does not mean that the suspect or defendant has admitted his crime, which is different from the concept of confession. Confession is the recognition of criminal facts by criminals, and the recognition of their illegality, social harmfulness and punishable nature is consistent with the purpose of punishment.
