An accused who did not reach court
ON Friday 24
Th. of February, Lebanon accused Israel that assassinated Elias
Yousef Habighah known as Ili Habighah – Due to this reason that in
war criminal court which establishes in Belgium against Ariel
Sharon, Israel prime minister, since he could play an important
role, so as Reuters report in bomb-explosion in Hazmieh,
Habighah and three other were murdered and three were injured whom
two of them were Habighah’s life-guards. Reuters reported that the
Lebanese government has confessed that it has not any such strong
document to connect this event to Israel. Lebanese press wrote that
Habighah had important documents to deliver to the war criminal
court in Belgium. Recently Habighah in an interview with “ Daily
star”, the Lebanese press, had spoken of very important documents
and video cassettes which could prove his innocence, as he guessed.
He emphasized that the documents are in a secure place. But he did
not appoint to any thing or any subject to how they can be accessed.
Habighah’s death was on the same date, which Lebanon was making
itself ready to be the host of Arabic governments’ summit. Recent
events reminded interior Lebanese war from 1975 to 1990. Habighah
was the first Lebanese combatant who after finishing 12 years of
interior war has been killed. By virtue of Belgium laws, the courts
of this country have permission to hear and examine human rights
crimes in any place in the world, which they have happened. In
application of complaint which has been provided against Sabra and
Shatila’s criminals it has written and noted that Habighah has not
entered camps but when he had asked through wireless about what they
should do with 50 men and women, he responded: “ For the last time I
inform you not to ask me such a question, you know yourself what you
should do very well “. When the news of Habigheh’s assassination was
released in Lebanon, many people got happy and Lebanese Palestinians
represented their happiness with shooting bullets. After Israel’s
attack to south Lebanon in 1982 and surrounding Palestinian refugees
camping. Habighah was army information commander of Lebanese
Christians , and he had participated in massacre of refugee
Palestinians in Sabra and Shatila , although he never took the
responsibility to commit such a crime . He declared to be ready to
participate in a court which was held in Belgium to try Ariel
Sharon, Israeli prime minister, to accuse him for his participation
in general massacre of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon’s Sabra and
Shatila and in a press conference Habighah told: “ I am ready to
take place in Belgium courts to prove my innocence, I am eager if
this file open in a neutral place which is out of any political
pressure to prove my innocence “Habighah has not tried in any court
in spite of the fame, which he accessed in this case. In current
mid–June a Belgium judge was hearing and examining to the complaints
which Sabra and Shatila’s event survivors have filed suite against
Ariel Sharon and requested to pursue it and punish him for accuse of
war crime against humanity. Sharon was defense minister of Israel in
1982 at the time of this massacre in Israel attack to Lebanon. In
1983 in a minute- research, which was held by Israeli government,
Habighah was recognized as general authority of Lebanese forces –
Israeli Christian right-winger militias – and direct responsible in
massacre of refugees and non-militaries in Sabra and Shatila.
Actually, Israeli army surrounded these two camps on September 1982
and let Lebanese Christian militias to commit such massacre. On the
basis of this Israeli minute-research, Sharon had played an indirect
role. In addition to this research, Sharon has been recognized and
introduced as direct responsible for neglecting of revenge danger of
Lebanese against Palestinian refugees in South-Lebanon. Habighah was
continuously emphasizing that even his innocence would not be proved
in Belgium; he himself would pursue this in its legal aspect up to
proving his innocence. A few before bomb-explosion event, just at
the time when Belgium court designated a group for Sahra and Shatila
event’s minute–research. Habighah in an interview with French news
agency worried and thought that his life is in danger. He claimed
that he would reveal and release many important documents. In
Belgium court. Belgium court is going to render a judgment on 6th
March about this file. Habighah was accused to instruct for
assassination of some Lebanese political individuals in 1980’s. In
a period of time he was one of the close partials of Israeilians but
afterwards changed his idea and become a partial of Syria. . His
accusations and plans, which he planned to assassinate politicians
in Lebanon, made an indecent character of him. Robert Maron Hatam,
the farmer guard of Habighah, in an interview with Al-jazireh TV,
revealed that exactly two years before assassinate plotting which
was planned by Habighah and Asad Shartari, current chairman of
Lebanese information organization approved his suggestions. This
subject had a great reflection in that period in Lebanese press. Two
of these accusations were Tony Franjieh’s assassination in 1978 and
Mustafa saad in 1985, whom both were member of Lebanese parliament.
In the same interview, Hatam revealed other subjects such as: Valid
Jonbalat assassination, kidnapping 4 Iranian diplomats in 1982,
bomb-explosion in the location of Kataeb party in which Bashir Jamil
was murdered, kidnapping 2 Lebanese businessmen, bribing to Manif
Ovaideh, former Lebanese attorney general, In order to forge a file
against Samir JaJa (Christian Army commander). Lebanon and….
Robert Marton Hatam,
with publishing a book about this case named “from Israel to
Damascus” promised to publish all documents, evidences and photos
relevant to Habighah’s accusations in another book.

An act for Tranquility
Chapter one
A.
Insurance role in society and its types:
Insurance is an
operation and agreement between Insurance Co. and beneficiary which
pays fees (insurance fee or accompany share) to receive pension or
interest at the time of event
occurrence.
According to history, man-life has not been tolerable without
essential forecasts such as insurance. From the initial life of man
up to insurance industry, one of advance industries, and university
courses of the world, insurance had been effective. As tribal life
of man, if a member of tribe, commit a crime against another tribe,
the committed targeted all that tribe members, and by this means
he/she made up all deficiencies while id of man whether before Islam
and afterwards and even now has been judging among people and under
some conditions the blood-money of murderer been received from the
other sides).
The best result is that insurance organ is a necessary agent to
social life and advancement and growth of this organ causes more
welfare for most people.
Nowadays, because of complicated industrial activities and
technologized life of people and car-traffic have caused several
kinds of insurance-contracts such as: Ground, sea and ocean and air
insurance. Although, Iranian industry of insurance is not now equal
to the counter part countries, on the basis of daily needs there are
several kinds of insurance contracts now, such as: cargo, travelling
agricultural products, flame, theft, earthquake flood, equipment and
machinery, sport, credit, unemployment and obligatory insurance for
vehicle drivers and owners.
By virtue of Art.2 of insurance law, approved 65 years ago,
insurance contracts should be as written document and that would be
called policy. Nowadays, they are called appending insurance
contracts due they are written and provided before signing and only
new insurance-beneficiary would be appended to it and no one can add
or remove things to or from it especially in their pre-typed
samples.
By virtue of Art.4 of the insurance law, the subject of insurance
may be property whether some-property or its interest or any kind of
legal responsibility provided that the insure would be beneficiary
not to spoil the insured thing. Also it is possible that insurance
may be for event or a danger from which insure would be deficient.
In Art.1 of insurance companies affairs law, approved about 14 years
ago, there has mentioned 4 kinds of insurance companies in Iran:
Iran, Asia, Alborz and Dana insurance companies which are joint
socks and are allowed to do insurance operations in governmental,
co-operative and private sections.
To regulate insurance operations, legislator should do special
actions and government should supervise upon insurance companies to
guarantee them and support rights of insurance companies, insures
and beneficiary individuals/. Art.1 of Iran-central insurance
establishment law, approved about 31 years ago, has instructed to
establish an institute name Iran-central insurance Co. in competence
agricultural products, flame, theft, earthquake, flood, equipment
and machinery, sport, credit, unemployment and obligatory insurance
for vehicle drivers and owners.
By virtue of Art.2 of insurance law, approved 65 years ago,
insurance contracts should as written document and that would be
called policy. Nowadays, they are called appending insurance
contracts due they are written and provided before signing and only
new insurance-beneficiary would be appended to it and no one can add
or remove things to or from it especially in their pre-typed
samples.
By virtue of Art.4 of the insurance law, the subject of insurance
may be property whether some-property of its interest or any kind of
legal responsibility provided that insure would be beneficiary not
to spoil the insured thing. Also it is possible that insurance may
be for event or a danger form which insure would be deficient. In
Art.1 of insurance companies with law, as a joint stock Co., to
governmental service supporting rights of parties and conducting
insurance affairs in Iran.
Art2. Of the same law explains that the capital of Iran-Central
insurance Co. is Rls 5,000,000,000 /- which divides into 50 shares
with 10 million Rials capital and all belongs to the government and
is not transferable and its increase is possible by public meeting
approval. This fund is provided from Iran insurance PJS Co. The most
important think, here is the role of Iran-central insurance in
supporting insurance parties’ rights in policy contracts, which this
duty in law and related regulations of insurance has been mentioned
in details.
B.
The duty of Iran insurance Co.
Against body
injuries caused by vehicles and kinds of trailers and trains, Iran
insurance Co. has special responsibility by virtue of law.
Art.10 is about obligatory evil responsibility of vehicle owners
against third parties, approved about 20 years to make up body –
injuries to third- parties, which due to non-insurance of vehicle,
cancellation of policy contract, suspension of contract, suspension
of insurance Co.’s preparation, runaway or irrecognition of event
responsible, or insurance Co. bankruptcy, if it is not payable or it
is out of the policy contract (except clear contents in Art.4) , An
independent fund named body-injuries fund is established …” which
its responsibility is on Iran-Central Insurance Co. by virtue of
clause 6 of Art.5.
Art.11 mentions: “ The fund will be provided by sources with propose
of government by approving fund and assembly commissions.
Remark 2 of Art.1 mentions: “ All ministries, independent offices,
banks, pawnshops and companies which half shares belong to
government, budget organization and all its dependant companies and
generally all governmental institutions are to do the operations
uniquely by Iran Insurance Co. (PJS).”
Resultant of remark 2 of Art.1 and text of Art.10 of the mentioned
law includes 2 points:
1.
Granting legal monopoly to Iran insurance Co. for
obligatory insurance of all vehide by that company.
This will be a great
honor in aspect of incoming due to the high volume of vehicles, and
against this income, there is a lot of duties for that company.
2.
Against that honor, Art.10 mentions that making up
harms to third-parties, because of mentioned lacks, is a
responsibility of Iran insurance Co. (PJS).
Usually, in
legislation against duty, there is a right and there ways to do it.
This rule includes this principal in obligatory insurance law also
and after granting a good honor in remark 2 of Art.1 of the law,
than has given it a great responsibility by virtue of Art.11.
C- Responsibility
items of Iran insurance Co. subject Art.10:
1.
Responsibility on risks: Anyway legislator wanted
to guarantee deficiencies caused by vehicles and simplify petitions
against it so it gives full responsibility to Iran insurance Co.
2.
Civil responsibility caused by substitutions.
Sometimes, legislator, on basis of social necessities, gives a
temporary civil responsibility to another party. And there are some
reasons for it as follows: Sometimes, kinds and incense are direct
responsible (Art-7 of civil responsibility). Sometimes, workers have
been introduced as responsible to make up of their operations
(Art.12 of civil responsibility Act).
3.
Responsibility to contracts some may think that
because of supporting government of Iran insurance Co. and despite
insurance contract between insurance Co. and insure, so totally all
deficiencies of art.10 will be made up by obligatory insurance law.
Therefore Iran insurance Co.’s responsibility could be differ in
such case.
In critic to the
first theory) risky responsibility), if Iran insurance Co. be
introduced to pay deficiency, if after payment wants to receive the
paid fee from real responsible to blamer, since the responsibility
had been without condition, so it would be impossible legally.
However if insure pays the fee for deficiencies and accepts it
he/she would be a substitute to insurance Co. in some aspects,
otherwise insure would be recognized as blamer. Iran insurance Co.
as a substitute of event deficient will get the money.
Therefore the first theory can not be a solution to the problem.
The third theory which declares responsibility to contract is on
behalf of deficient. But its most problem is – firstly, Iran
insurance Co. can not be known as a contract party at the time of
legislation – secondly, these legal judgments can not be included as
simple contract frames.- Thirdly, in any contract we have
termination part and some rules for it, however, the legislator can
get the responsibility to another insurance co. by virtue of
Art.10., so the third theory can not be so acceptable.
But the second theory is more acceptable and includes Art.30 of
obligatory insurance.
Chapter two-
The contents of
Art.10 of obligatory insurance law about body deficiency to
third-parties.
A0 Body deficiencies
As in Art.10, Iran insurance Co.’s responsibility is only and
uniquely for body deficiencies and not others (financial and
spiritual).
Body deficiencies divide into two forms, either as blood-money or
other than it:
A-1- Body deficiencies subject to blood-money Art.294 of Islamic
penalty law has defined blood-moneys:” Blood-money is a property
which is given to offense victim or his/her parents or sponsors…
Many authorities have accepted blood-money as deficiency, rather
than those who suggest blood-money as a penalty.
1.
The non-criminal would be accused.
2.
On contrary of cash-penalty, the claim would be
accepted from the accused.
3.
The claim for surplus-deficiency would re-heard in
courts. (The judgment of the country supreme tribunal).
4.
In Arts,15 and 2,4 of the Islamic penalty law, the
blood-money as been recognized as property.
Therefore,
everywhere that legislator indicates blood-money, art.10 of
obligatory insurance law includes it.
A-2- Body deficiencies out of blood-money sometimes, it may be a
harm to someone and court renders blood-money judgment. If the
make-up is not sufficient for deficiencies, the deficient individual
has the right to make claim, in order to make it up. Or in the time
that blood-money regulations would not be done, the deficient with
deficiently claim caused by offense of independent claim requested
their body deficiencies. So, body deficiencies in Art.10 of
obligatory insurance law includes both two kinds of deficiencies,
either in nature or in essences.
Art.3 of executive insurance regulations, approved about 24 years
ago directs that: “The purpose of body deficiency mentioned in Art.1
would be provide, making up all body injuries expenses for treatment
or injuries caused by driving events and temporary or permanent body
deficiency, or death caused by events would include insurance for
third-parties.
B-Third-parties
Art 10 of obligatory insurance, declares that only third parties are
due for making up body injuries.
Art.2 of obligatory insurance says that all people injured because
of vehicle events would be third party, except the following
individuals:
A.
Insure, owner or driver responsible of event.
B.
Insure staffs who are responsible to the event
during their duty.
C.
Spouse, father, mother. Child, grandchild and
forbears dependent to insure, in the case that driver or insure is
the blamer of event.
Remark- In the case
of accident between two vehicles, the drivers would be recognized as
third-parties against one-another, either they are owners of
vehicles or not. Of course, it is an objection about it when insure
is not the car-driver and why they are third-parties.
D.
contravention approval law dated about 4 years ago
belonging to the ministers board:
E.
Art 11 of fund regulations related to body injuries
fund approved in 1969 says:
F.
The commitments of preparation fund for body
injuries relevant to third parties with a balance in Art 10 of
obligatory insurance law, has been defined for vehicle owners.
Art.10 of
executive regulations approved in 1998 dealers that: The least
insurance fee for body-injury make-up for one individual per event
is Rls 80,000,000/- and in financial deficiencies it is Rls
2,000,000/- per event the responsibility of insurance companies is
unlimited for the number of individuals, and is relevant to the
capacity of that vehicle.” The critic to Art.11 is of ministers
board which its amount for body-injury funds is Rls 15,000,000/-
However, anything in Art.10 of obligatory insurance is on Iran
insurance company responsibility is making up of body injuries to
third parties. And in Art.3 of executive insurance regulation for
body injury has been directed that:” the mean of body injury in
Art.1 is making – up treatment expenses and body-injuries or
injuries caused by driving events and also organ-injury, temporary
or permanent retiring, or death caused by an event including
insurance for third parties…”
So, it is obvious that the approval of ministers board in
legislator’s judgment wasting with top commitment of Iran insurance
company with a fee of Rls 15,000,000/- is totally against law and is
out of executive power authorities who has not the power for
legislation has abolished Art.10 of obligatory insurance which is
capable to be cancelled in official justice tribunal.
Conclusion:
With cancellation
of the approval, firstly Art.10 of obligatory insurance would be
revived and secondly many relevant prisoners would be free from the
prison and the blood-money would be paid by Ira insurance Co.,
Thirdly, the judiciary power’s budget affairs which is paying mach
money in this concern (despite having many financial problems), now
would be stop to run the new law., fourthly, Iran insurance company,
will be more powerful due to non-paying of body-injuries and weakens
the other insurance companies (which monopolizes insurance industry
for itself) then this procedure would be cancelled.
Suggestions:
Firstly, by
virtue of principle #170 of I.R.I.’s institutions, courts judges can
prevent of execution of approvals, governmental regulations which
are against Islamic rules or out of execution power authorities… So
judges can disregard files related to the above-mentioned approval
which is on the contrary of law. Secondly, regarding recent part of
principle #170 of the institutions, every one can request to cancel
and quash these winds of regulations from official justice tribunal
public prosecutor of judicial district director can quash and cancel
the approval. Thirdly, the ministers board can revive amendment 10
Art.10 of obligatory insurance and automatically free many of
citizens who are staying in prisons.
Is Art 10 of obligatory insurance against the Islamic penalty law or
civil responsibility law?
The mean of this question refers to Art.313 of Islamic penalty law
which says that purposed blood -money or its similar is on criminals
responsibility.
And in Art.337 of the some law has been mentioned that if two
vehicles crash each other and cause to will riders of cars, half of
all killed blood – money is on due of each driver. And in Art.1 of
civil responsibility law has been mentioned whether a person without
legal warranty or by carelessness harm to health or property or
liberty or business of another, he/she would be blamer. Then every
make up needs a blamer with his carelessness had made such problem.
Therefor, as Iran insurance company does not accompany in any
deficiency, so it is against the law then should be abolished.
In response, we should tell that the mean of Art.10 of obligatory
insurance is not to punish or blame individuals and only addresses
Iran-central insurance fund as payment responsible and as substitute
of main blamer can act.
For better explanations, Art.10 of obligatory insurance, recognizes
Iran-insure made injuries, by virtue of remark 2 of Art.1 Totally,
Art.10 of obligatory insurance is not in the position of recognition
of body-injuries responsible of third parties to have contravention
with other principles of civil responsibility law.
Therefore, Art.10 of obligatory insurance should be recognized as
government support to body-injuries of people against getting the
right of movement of a dangerous equipment called automobile or
other motor-vehicles. In this aspect it would not be against Art.10
of obligatory insurance, but it would be a supplement to them
clearly, after paying the amount to injured person, Iran central
insurance fund will request to be received the same money from the
main blamer.
Does blood-money and body-injury payment need rendering judicial
judgment on petitioner’s behalf?
Regarding this fact that deficiency payment is an essential duty of
Iran-central insurance fund and by virtue of Arts.6 and 10 of
body-injuries fund regulations : “Third-parties who are deficient
for aforesaid reasons in Art 10 of obligatory insurance, can not
receive their money from insurance companies within 10 days of the
rejecting date of those companies, can deliver their money-inquiry
letter plus its response and other related documents and information
to the fund.” The fund will study all received documents and will
submit to pay deficiency make-up money by virtue of regulations.
Therefore, as it was said, paying deficiency does not need to render
judgments by Justice Administration courts.
Assuming that in such cases Iran central insurance fund would be
third party, can it object court’s judgment according to its
quantity and quality?
In response, we should tell that firstly, concerning penalty
judgments, third-party objection has not been forecasted and it is
only for civil codes. Secondly, because courts judgment has not made
critics to the right of the fund, so by virtue of Art.10 of
obligatory insurance, no objection about Justice Administration
judgments would be effective.
Where is judicial trial reference to claims and individual petitions
against the fund relevant to Art.10 of obligatory insurance
(official justice tribunal or public courts of Justice
Administration) about execution of Art.10 of obligatory insurance,
there may be some disputes which the deficient may make petition and
tow references would have competence as follows:
1.
Official Justice tribunal 2- Public courts of
Justice Administration.
1.
By virtue of Art.11 of official justice tribunal,
since Iran insurance company is dependant to state Iran central
insurance Co. and trying petitions against governmental organs is a
responsibility of official justice tribunal, so it is in competence
of that tribunal.
2.
But stronger reason is that the contract between
government and Iran central insurance company had some problems
which comes out of paying deficiency – money by that company and
guaranteed by the government.
The other reason
which recognizes the competence of public courts is the fact that n
doubtful cases in special courts’ competence, the principle is
competence of public courts of Justice Administration.

papers and letter of attorney to his petition, and finally court
summoned both sides about 2 years ago and ashed for reasons. The
representative of the complainant has declared the theory of Art.12

investigation of the location and consequently has requested to
reject the claim of petitioner. The court has referred the case to
its own experts on the basis of bill No.1441-30/6/79 and then
because courts experts had considered no reason for civil or
fertility of the land and requested for rehearing by branch #35 of
Tehran provincial rehearing court on the basis of within verdict
No.185/35/79 due to the fact that petitioner’s requested price is
less than objection designatory, so court has rendered writ for

Judgment:
Concerning
verdict No.185-79/10/27 by judicial deputy to Tehran court branch

all is not monetory and it was cancellation of commission theory of
Art.12 of city lands and it can be reheard in competence to clause B
of Art.331 of civil proceedings regulations, as a non-official
claim. So the rehearing court’s verdict was cancelled due to Arts.
371 and 401 of civil proceedings regulations and it was referred to
a court for essential trial.

Al-Qaidah’s
members in Guantanamo Jail
Since Donald Ramsufeld, The U.S. secretary of state, had notified
already on Friday, 10th of January after a 27-hour flight the first
group of Al-Qaidah prisoners entered U.S. marine force base in
Cuba’s Guantanamo bay ,where they are going to keep these prisoners
for an indefinite period and under anti-humanitarian and
contradictory to principles and International agreements conditions
, from their origin in Afghanistan while they were put on blinders.
On mid-day of
January 10th , 20 Taliban captives were conducted into a
C-17 transportation airplane which was landed on Ghanihar’s
airport runway while they were put on black masks on their faces.
These prisoners were chained to their chairs while 40 American
marine gunmen had responsibility to watch and care them . The
airplane departed to the American military base in Europe where
the prisoners transferred to a C-141 American transportation
airplane departing to Caribbean and finally the airplane reached
its destination in Guantanamo bay on Friday night . Then the
prisoners were transferred to the coast by two buses and then by a
marine force supplying wafter to the other side of the bay and
were transferred to Guantanamo bay .
The movements for
placing Taliban and Alqaidah captives in Guantanamo has been
started from one month ago by departure of 1000 American army
personnel to marine forces base located in Guantanamo. This group
had come to Guantanamo to build a temporary prison and in near
future , it will have the capacity of 2000 prisoners . Imprisonment
conditions of these prisoners in Guantanamo jail has little
difference in Kan Moon prison’s frightful crypts during Vietnam war
by U.S. puppet dictator regime in south Vietnam for keeping
political prisoners under anti-humanity conditions . In Guantanamo
each 2 prisoners are kept in one 1.5 X 2 meter cell . These cells
are made from cement having 4 big air holes in their 4 sides to
permanent watch and supervise upon prisoners and the cell is not
even large enough that a person with medium height can lay
comfortably there. Guantanamo jailing complex has been located in
an open space and environment which actually exposes to rain and
strong winds which is not an unusual happening in Caribbean area
and regarding wall holes of the prisoners cells they should
tolerate an unsuitable atmosphere.
The story of
transferring the first group of Taliban prisoners to Guantanamo was
encountered with many dangers , in the first step the danger was
transferring these prisoners to Ghandihar’s airport. In the
earliest morning of January 11, American marine forces gunmen who
were head to toe armed increased security preparations in the
regions around airplane vastly. Only few hours after transferring
20 Taliban prisoners , the sound of shooting was heard and the crash
between American gunmen and invaders was begun . It was the first
time that shooting sound was heard after caption of Ghandihar’s
airport in the earliest of the last month but hostile invasion was
soon parried and invaders were murdered or ran away .
After
transferring the prisoners to Guantanamo , the American media
co-operated with an unprecedented limitations about covering
news relevant to transfer and keeping situation of Taliban
prisoners quietly and calmly .
A group of media
reporters with the co-operation and coordination of Pentagon got
permission to supervise happenings from the top of a hill which was
located in a distance of 400 meters of the prisoners’ discharging
place , but no one did let to carry camera and video-camera and
make any photography from scenes . Pentagon in an contradiction
commitment to Geneva treaty instructed the media services and
news agencies not to publish any photo of blinder-holder
prisoners. The instruction which followed by the U.S. media
powerful services’ obedience and with a news boycott covering
this happening almost no news was heard.
After January 11
to 17 two other groups of Al-Qaidah prisoners were transferred
to Guantanamo and despite several objections of human rights groups
against this commitment and doubt about legacy of transferring
Taliban and Al-Qaidah prisoners to the Caribbean , it has been
arranged to continue the procedure of transferring all Taliban
prisoners.
After
transferring the third group the sum of Guantanamo and “X-Ray”
prisoners was 80 individuals.
Taliban prisoners
are going to be quested and investigated frequently and soon
after approving the law of formation of military courts the
prisoners will put on the trial . Bush government indicated no
tendency to imprison Taliban members in the U.S. territory
because they were worry to provoke public opinion’s sensitive
reaction in the case of treating with the prisoners. Guantanamo and
“X-Ray” prisons are going to be military courts which Bush with a
warranty has ordered it about one-month ago.
In these courts
, which will be officilized with presence of 4 military officers
as arbitrators board , the prisoners’ accusations will be put on
the trial on the basis of their own terrorism operations and war
crimes and the court has carte blanche to render judgments such
as death sentence and life-imprisonment .
In such a
procedure the trial for the prisoners will not have any kind of
judicial consultations and comradeship of lawyers and in this
courts in addition to judges and juries , the attorney general
and prosecuting attorney will be the members of the American army
officers and with recognition of the court’s judge they can avoid
presenting media representatives in such trials
The U.S.
authority has claimed that the contents of Geneva treaty will be
observed concerning the Guantanamo’s prisoners . The U.S.
authorities , who are under pressure of several and infinite human
rights organizations which worried about the situation of Taliban
prisoners , accepted to give permission to the world red-cross
committee representatives to visit X-Ray prison and it has been
arranged to depart a board from this organization to Guantanamo up
to the weekend .
Darcy Christian ,
the spokesperson of red-cross committee , has announced that from
the view of this organization Taliban prisoners can be called war
prisoners whom should be treated by virtue of Geneva treaty but
he explained that human rights supporting groups should not make
verbal war with Washington because this work may alter the
co-operation between the U.S. and red-cross committee.
Mary
Robinson , high commissioner of U.N. human rights department ,
also worried about the situation and fate of Taliban prisoners in
Guantanamo. She emphasized : “ With these prisoners should be
treated in competence with International laws and human rights
treaties” . Robinson claims were in response to the declared
problems by Ramsufeld addressing Taliban prisoners as “Illegal
warriors” and not prisoners of war . The defense minister of the
U.S. in his recent press meetings had tolled that The U.S. does
not recognize Taliban prisoners as prisoners of war and on the
basis of Geneva treaty illegal combatants has no right. He added
: “ we are going to treat with these prisoners in a parallel and
competent way with Geneva treaty contents reasonably and sanely ”
. Ramsufeld reminded that the U.S. government would address
arrested prisoners only to individuals who had put on military
uniform , holding recognized military rank , received military
orders hierarchy system and carried arms publicly in the period of
their captivity . On the basis of these measures , few soldiers
combating in Afghan war have been recognized as militaries and
after captivity they would be called prisoners of war due putting on
unique military uniform and command in Afghanistan had been
unofficial .
When Donald
Ramsufeld, the U.S. defense minister, appointed Guantanamo marine
base as a very secure area out of the U.S. to keep , quest ,
investigate and establishing military court for captivated prisoners
in Afghanistan , Castro government did not object sensibly against
this decision of the U.S. .
Guantanamo marine
base has been located in Cuba territory that by virtue of the agreed
treaty between the U.S.A. and America’s puppet Cuba governments
in the earliest 20 century allocated in order to use the U.S.
military.
Cuban government
said after news of Taliban prisoners transferring that
continuation of lodgment of the U.S. marine base in Guantanamo
is not known as an legal and legitimate action according to them.
But when one of the American senators entered Havana for an
unofficial meeting the last Thursday , Fiddle Castro announced that
the co-operation and assistance of Cuba with the U.S. in the field
of prisoners of war is an important sign of BONA FIDES of Cuba and
these declarations were obvious quashing of the previous directions
of Cuba.
In few next days
, the trial of Taliban prisoners is being started . Among these
prisoners there are some non-Afghan nation citizens , some
prisoners of Russia , Saudi Arabia and even the U.K. . Therefore
if these prisoners would not be known as prisoners of war , they
would not have rights of legal and diplomatic supports of their own
belonging countries .
All the
captivities have been accused to associate in Afghanistan illegal
hostilities , however none of the Geneva treaty clauses
includes definition in which explains the accusations to the
Al-Qaidah foreigner members and for this reason the fate of Taliban
prisoners is in a misty position.

EXCEPT IN NON
– FLAGRANT OFFENCES,
CARS INSPECTION SHOULD BE DONE UNDER
PERMISSION OF JUDICIAL AUTHORITIES.
An application of
complaint for revoking relief of circulation No. 4021161/179/1 in
2000 of general office of the law enforcement regulations has been
dedicated to the high administrative court and due to interesting
and feasible response to the text of the complaint, hereby we note
it by judgment vote literally:
No.: 408/79/11
Date: 2001
Written verdict No.: 177
Classified file No.:
Investigation by: Public board of the official judgment tribunal.
Petitioner: Mr. MAHMOUD NEDAEI
Subject of the complaint and relief: Revoking circulation No.
402/1/179 in 2000 of the law general office and law enforcement
legal affairs department of I.R. of Iran.
Foreword:
the petitioner has filed a complain declaring that the law general
office and LEIRI’s (law enforcement of Islamic Republic of Iran)
legal affairs department by judicial authority final approve has
issued a circulation No. 402/1/179/1 in 2000 concerning
investigation and inspection of passing cars through pass–ways and
halt and inspection places throughout the country which is on the
basis of its contents cars inspections and investigations without
issued special warranty.
Since the above mentioned circulation regarding suggestions No. 7 /
4239 dated 22/4/1379 and 7 / 7747 in 2000 of general office of legal
affairs and Iranian judiciary power’s codification is clearly on the
contrary of article 24 of penalty proceeding regulations approved in
1999, therefore has requested to revoke 10/04/2001 due to
documentary to general office’s circulation and suggestion No. 6201
in 2000 by judiciary power’s consultant to the chairman which has
been certified and approved by the power and has been informed of
the chairman of judiciary power organization to LEIRI. The
instructions summary of the chairman concerning the aforesaid
subject is as the following :
1.
LEIRI should stop cars in stations and arrivals to
check and control driving licenses and owners documents, in order to
execution of driving and traffic regulations and arresting car-
thieves .
2.
If a driver lacks certified driving license and /or
there would be no sufficient reasons to own the car, or it seems
that the car would be a stolen one, then police officer has right to
stop the car and submit on the case under penalty proceedings
regulations articles No. 18/19/20 and 21.
3.
Concerning smuggled goods, the police should
confiscate them and execute under A and B clauses of Art.2 of
government punishment limitations regulations against goods and
currency smuggling approved by policy recognition assembly.
4.
The police should arrest thieves or individuals who
enter the country illegally and without needed certifications and
introduce them to competent judicial authorities.
5.
There is no necessity to place judicial units in
control and inspections stations. legal reasons :
A – LEIRI is to place
regulations, security, public and individual comfort, conflict and
serious and consistent combat with any kind of destruction,
terrorism, riot, anti – security movements and individuals which may
menace the country’s security, to secure certified legal activities,
and to confront with illegal activities, to secure places and
several other tasks and duties which are out of duties in position
of judicial enforcement authority. This force has responsibility
against supreme leader and commander of powers, general staff of
armed forces , interior ministry , and especially Islamic Iranian
martyr–rearing people , and should make social security.
B – LEIRI , as an authority to execute the above – mentioned tasks
as in clause 8 of Art . 4 of LEIRI’s law obeys current rules and
regulations upon proceedings current and penalty proceedings
regulations and naturally in this position should ask views and
execute the judicial instructions . therefore , if any judge thinks
that inspection of cars and individuals moving through stations
should get permission before inspection , it would be necessary to
make a judge stay consistently and round the clock in stations due
to high possible and risk of accidents , in order to give permission
per inspection . Although in other legal duties. getting permission
and action under judges supervision should go under discussion and
negotiation.
C - Art. 24 of penalty proceedings regulations is a redundancy to
Art. 24 of the same regulations approved in 1920 and only “ objects
inspection ” Phrase has been added to the new law , while
car–inspection subject in inspection stations has been declared and
introduced from years ago and caused similar discussion , and
judiciary power and legislator noted to this matter perfectly while
discussion about Art. 24, and know all legal and executive problems
related to it but despite it, they have avoided mentioning “ car “
phrase, therefore car–inspection has not been included in general
judgment.
D - By virtue of Art. 24 of the same law, LEIRI has permission to
inspect and investigate houses, places, objects and arresting people
in flagrant offenses and inspection stations usually encounter such
kinds of offenses. So law has defined this right and possibility and
the LEIRI submission competes with law.
G – The LEIRI operations are usually “ supervision and inspection” ,
and whatever is necessary to do for non– flagrant offenses which
needs the permission of judicial authority is called “investigation”
and it has been informed that there is an essential and substantial
difference between these two terms. LEIRI gets the permission of
judicial authority without any exception in non-flagrant offenses in
any investigation, which is usually hold in position of judicial
authority. Therefore this discussion is out of complainant’s
objection . So it is requested to reject complain of the petitioner.
Public board of official justice tribunal was established in the
above–mentioned date with management of Hojat-Al-Islam Moghaddasi
Fard , the judicial deputy of tribunal , and with presence of
initial branches heads and chairmen and rehearing branches missions
and after discussion , study and consultation with majority of votes
with up – coming explanation, they begin rendering of judgment.
PUBLIC BOARD’S VOTE
Clearly in mentioned Art.
24 of penalty proceedings regulations approved in 1999 “…. .
Investigation of houses , places , objects and arresting individuals
in non–flagrant offenses should be done under special permission of
judicial authority even when researches responsibility is held to
executor from judicial authority totally . Therefore, circulation
No. 402/1/179/1 dated 11/4/1379 of LEIRI’s law general office and
its legal affairs office, which knows its certified and legal right
to execute completely in a wide range and without any limitations
upon any car inspection and investigation , and in non–flagrant
offenses even without getting special permission from judicial
authority and even the judicial authority’s instruction in the case
of avoiding inspection can not be affected as it is contrary to
clear logic of the mentioned Article and legislated order in the
case of justice administration executor’s duty which is recognized
as obedience of judicial authority instructions and out of aforesaid
authorities office domain in legislation of governmental regulations
and with documentary to the second section of Art. 25 of official
justice tribunal law it would be revoked.

How did Mr. Davar treat in selecting judges?
Davar for
selecting suitable judges, had some measures: First, to be honest,
second, educated and intellectual. His only measure to select a
judge was not his education in Iran or foreign countries. Also, he
employed the people who was educated in Iran in competence with
usual conditions and pushing basic levels of Islamic terms and know
Islamic definitions, provided that having other needed conditions.
Thirdly, employment of the educated youth with work experience and
to be famous in their operations, so he paid more attention to the
ministries of foreign affairs, culture and finance and he invited
many people for employment.
Sayyed Habibollah Shobeiri was designated by Davar as director of
Justice Administration in Azerbaijan.
He accepted this potion conditional and the conditions were as
follows:
Firstly his rank should not be less than the rank of supreme
tribunal director. Secondly, his salary should not be less than
supreme tribunal director. Thirdly, he would not change his clergy
dress and would work with the same form of clergymen, and would do
his own duty in judgment. Fourthly, he would accept this position
only for two years and he would be retired afterwards with the same
judicial rank. The late Davar accepted all four shobeiri’s
conditions and he issued his designation order.
Sayyed Habibollah Shobeiri was born in Tehran. He entered Islamic
clergymen school after basic education and learned usual related
texts. Then, he went to Nadjaf-Ashraf city to continue his
education. He educated rational and traditionary sciences for long
years and finally graduated as an expert in Islamic Jurisprudent. In
first national council assembly he was elected by clergymen and
preachers and entered the assembly. Then he started his judicial
operations.
His main duties had been the director of appealing in recognition
supreme tribunal counselors’ center and as general prosecutor.
He decease in 1946 in Tehran and made many charities.

Orders of judges’
disciplinary courts
Passing numerous
laws and changing them at a short time, plenty cases and unusual
accumulation of work in courts, disorders created by doing
preliminary investigation and holding court sessions at the same
time, holding unspecialized courts, reliance on statistics, lack of
enough experience of some to the judges and courts divectors and
other same factors, causes the noticeable decline of judgements’
qualityand the judges disciplinary of fences and unfortunately the
number of indictments and the judgements of the public prosecutor’s
offices and disciplinary courts of judges also increasing .
Undoubtedly none of the mentioned factors will justify the offenses
and although the disciplinary courts of judges issue their
judgements compassionately by knowing the existing situation, it
even this would be tight won’t acquit the judges from disciplinary
violations.
Therefore, we are going to publish some examples of the last
rendered judgements in disciplinary court of judges in order to
attract the attention of judicial follow workers and make them
familiar with the cases which are considered violations in the
public prosecutor’s offices and disciplinary courts.
The action of the respondent judge for changing his judgement about
the amount of blood money instead of issuing amended judgement has
not been legally and is considered a violation and his defense due
which he claims that the mentioned case has been considered as the
amendment of the judgement, is not accepted.
Regarding these items, Mr.…. , chairman of branch….. of public court
…. Is convicted to pay 1/10 of his monthly salary for 4 months.
Relying upon the beginning of article 20 of constitution about
recognition different kinds of judges’ faults.

High Administrative Court’s judgments
The circulation of
public prosecutor doesn’t agree with circulation N140/77/75226/92 .
Courts on granting the request on mitigation of accused, don’t have
the right to increase the penalties.
Discussion: In any
case, if accused asked for mitigation through lateral law e.g.: to
eliminate the jail , then is it possible increase the penalties?
That was emphasized by Circular Of public prosecutor although this
Cir. was not enforceable, later was null and void by high
administrative court.
Writ of supreme
court precedent No. (234/79/H-1380/2/3): According to Article 11 of
Islamic criminal law, which emphasizes on mitigation with high
concern for accused and on interception of criminal laws in both
previous law and lateral law are enforceable too. Essentially,
determination of criminality of the case completely rests on
deciding judges or their substitutes. In the case of decently writs,
the Supreme Court would make another decision. Thus, the circulation
of public prosecutor is against the law, according to 2nd
clause of section 25 in high administrative court and it is null and
void.
The former minister
of finance and economics and his wrong deception payment of %2
gross net income for building factories and educational amenities
are duties of governmental factories in which they are excluding the
private companies. Therefore, decision N. 10765 – 73/6/6 of the
former minister of finance and economics is against the law.
Subarticle No. 8 of 1973 of budget codes says: all Governmental
Factories– banks, should pay %2 of their gross net of their previous
year income to the government. Acting minister of finance and
economics in 1973 included all private companies which high
administrative courts circulation No.: 10765-73636 announces that:
the decision of finance and economics minister is out of announces
of the judiciary power. Supreme court, precedent No.: 11 122/79 –
1980/2/13.
Expressing of clause
(1) Of subarticle No.8 of budget code of 1994 says: “All factories
mentioned by the code must pay %2 of their gross net of their
previous year income for utilization of Education Department.”
legislator emphasizes on units which should all liquidated into
government entities and irrelevant with non governmental factories.
With attention to the manner of writing of private companies. Thus,
according to clause 2nd of article 25 of high
administrative court, the phrase of “ non governmental factories “
from circulation was null. And void collection network expenders
from subscribers is against the law.
Supreme court
precedent No.: 1199/79 – 1380/4/14 – loyal (under Clause (L),
sub-article 19 of “ second program on Economic development code “
exclusively, allows the collection of subscription and installation
fees. And consumption bills, and at last portion of clause stated
that any other collections aside from above-mentioned are
prohibited.
Thus, expenders of
development of city electric net work are not included, according to
2nd clause of high administrative court. The clauses No.
4 &43 from regulation on electric tariffs for subscribers payment
from ministry of Energy was against the law and is out of their
jurisdiction.
Therefore,
According to 2nd clause of section 25 of high
administrative court was null and void to nullify.
Collecting of
nullifying effect by banks on bounced cheque is incorrect.
Supreme Court
precedent No.: H/259/78-1380/4/31.
According to article
21of amendment law on issuance of cheque , enacted on 1972 Subject
to closure of account of a person issuing a dishonored cheque in
the case of indictment, and according clause 4 of article 14, of
banking code enacted 1972, has not been mentioned collection fees
for nullification from bounced cheques.
Thus, clause 3 of
two hundred nineteen sessions in 1997 that convinced by Technical
committee on means of Banks, according to 2nd clause of
Article 25 of High Administrative court was null and void.
Nullification of state registry of Deeds and Real Estate
organization’s Decision Enforcing the notary public to pay %20 of
registration fees to the Notary publics is out of jurisdiction of
state registry of deeds and Real Estate organization.
Supreme Court
precedent No: H153/79-1380/4/19:
In addition to
authorization of the justice Department and state registry Deeds and
Real Estate organization for determination of registry fees, in
accordance with Article 54 from notary public code, enacted on
1975.But irrelevancy with how and where to spend them, made the
legislators to describe the distribution of registry fees accusingly
to article code enacted in 1994.
Thus with reason
mentioned above, subarticle No. 2 from circulation
N1/34/10705-1377/6/2 which enforces the notary publics to pay %20 of
their registration fees to Notary public Association is out of state
registry of Deeds and Real Estate organization. And in accordance
with 2nd clause of Article 25, high administrative code
was null void.

The Islamic guardian council’s critics about the revival of
prosecutor’s offices
The bill of amending
some parts of law contents related to establishment of public and
revolution courts was referred to the Islamic council assembly due
to critics of the Islamic guardians council and after the Islamic
council assembly approval . The complete text of the bill and the
guardians council’s critics have been mentioned below the same
remark or article in cadre. Judgment (Ghezavat) periodical is ready
to indicate the colleagues viewpoints under this title:
The bill of
amendment to the law of establishment of public and revolution
courts:
Single Art.- The
law of public and revolution courts establishment – Approved in
April 1994 – is amended as follows :
1- Art.1 is
amended as follows :
Art.1- Initial courts of Justice Administration divides into
public and special courts . Public courts has the competence to
try all claims except those which law has mentioned them and
special courts are not competent to try any claim except those which
law has pointed clearly . Military courts are known as special
courts.
1- Regarding
phrase : “ Military courts are known as special courts “ below
Art. 1 , since it has not been mentioned whether the special court
for clergymen is know as a public or special court , so there are
some critics to it and after removing such uncertainties .
2-Art. 3 and its
remarks 2 and 3 are amended as the following and a remark as remark
#4 is appended to it :
Art.3 – In any judicial environment which public courts
have been formed and established , a prosecutor’s office should be
established beside it. The limitations of competence , formation ,
responsibilities and authorities relevant to the mentioned
prosecutor’s office which are called “ Public and Revolution
prosecutor’s office” , and should be on the basis of criminal
trials’ principles and its next amendments and Non-Litigious
Jurisdiction Act affairs and other laws , up to the time of its
handing over and approval of the related proceedings regulations

has been clarified that up to approval of proceedings regulations
the related affairs will be done by virtue of criminal judgments
principles acts and its next amendments and Non-Litigious
Jurisdiction Act and other laws , surrounding several religious
critics which has been added to some contents of the mentioned law
and also uncertainty relevant to statement of : other laws are
abolished such as this one. “ The other time declaration of it
relates to the legal procedures. So from this view of point , it is
on the contrary of principles 72 , 74, 94 of the institution .
Remark 2- Trying
the offenses in competence of military courts does not include this
act and they should be tried in prosecutors’ offices and military
courts .
Remark 3-
Offenses which their legal penalty is only from one to three months
of imprisonment or cash penalty up to RLS 1,000,000 and kids
offenses are directly announced and declared in the relevant
courts and prosecutors’ offices have no interfere in this concern .
Remark 4- The
offenses which have been declared in court directly up to the
execution of this act should be tried and examined in the same
court without need to bill of indictment and if there would be any
necessity to research or other submissions in order to investigate

authorization .
3-In remark 4 of
Art.3 it has been declared that files subject to remark 1 of Art. 4
in any process , should be sent to the provincial penalty courts
to be examined . Since the individuals subject to remark 1 of Art. 4
include clergymen it would be against religious rules and also
principle #57 of the institutions , so it includes militaries
therefore it is recognized against principle #172 of the
institutions .
4- In remark 4 of
Art.3 , sending files subject to the top of remark 1 of Art.4 in
order to continuing trials and process them to provincial penalty
court , Since its announcement causes the peoples’ rights wasting

criminal affairs. Allocation some branches of penal and legal
courts to examine and try special legal or criminal petitions such
as family affairs , kids offenses with obedience of competence and
expeditions is out of judiciary power’s duty and responsibility .
In necessary cases , it is possible to refer
legal files to penal branches and vice-versa.
Remark 1- Trying
offenses which their legal penalty is retaliation or
organ-retaliation or stoning or crossing or death-sentence or

Art. 9- The

district Justice Administrations of those provinces .
Remark – any judge can uniquely do hiss own duties only in
one court branch and render judgments in more than one branch in a
certain period of time with any title is abandoned and prohibited.
By virtue of Art.12 , the judges who do several kinds of
duties and tasks , in one period, about jurisdiction subject have
been responsibility to do their duty only in one branch. In the
cases that their tasks are delivered to another judge , it causes
an increase in public funds and since it does not include in the
government bill so it is recognized against the principle #57 of
the I.R.I. institutions.
Note: At the top of Art. 12 , “the head of district Justice
Administration would be the judicial head and director of
district and the director of the first branch of court has
administrative principalship “ is correct.

recognized suitable for such concern . Also branches of courts
which are unnecessary to establish prosecutors’ offices will be
postponed and the extra branches omit will begin from the last

7- In remark 3 of Art. 13 , some limitations for

rendered judgment would be an outstanding contravention law or
religious laws which in those cases , with request of the accused
(whether in civil or in penal affairs) or the relevant public

72, 74 and 94 of I.R.I.’s institutions . Also announcing that press

Justice in Islam
By Abbassali
Alizadeh
General Heal of Tehran Justice Administration
Chapter one
Judgment in Islam
is one of the most important responsibilities and for the some
reason Islam has allocated a great importance to this case, and
recognizes it as a tusk part of God messengers and Imams (As) and
religious innocents (As) and they have been removed as second step
of God’s messengers’ duty role players, in Imams’ (As) quotations it
has been mentioned clearly, such as arabic existing hadith.
This case is so clear and obvious that there is no doubt about it
among Islamic scientists, and Shiite jurists. The outstanding people
have pointed several meanings for the word “justice”, some have
defined about ten meanings for it. (Javaherol-Kalam,vol.uo, P.7).
But it seems that the meaning of this word is only “judgment” and
other meanings seem to be of judgment assists such as necessitate,
obligation, direction, or they may be dummy meanings such as notice,
freedom, morality and etc. Non the less, about the real meaning of
justice, we should think whether it is an external or credential
matter, as in shape aspects, justice is a credential matter.
Credential of
fairs divides into 3:
A part which deals with clear and directed judgments.
And other part which is affected by some effects such as directed,
rendering and consequential affairs such as partial and conditionals
(public meaning of rendered judgments). And another part which is
merely and only credentials in which the sacred judge has indicated
them, so the real meaning of jurisdiction is the third one.
Therefore jurisdiction is not an existing interest such as
attorneyship and the quotation that some Islamic jurists have
responsibility to try public affairs with full authority, is a wrong
matter.
Shortly, the meaning of jurisdiction is fabricating credits by the
sacred judge for any existing expedition. But what is difference
between religious adjudication and jurisdiction.
Religions adjudication is news, notice of judgment and belief, which
Islamic jurist has derived them from Quran Verses and Islamic
quotations, but jurisdiction is the competence limitation of general
judgment with the rendered judgment. The Islamic jurist also has the
right to add his comments to the single religious adjudication and
announces his own understandings about it, therefore religious
adjudication is upper than jurisdiction in rank.
Is jurisdiction a result of recommending to do good, and enjoining
not?
The late Saheb-Javaherolkalm (RA) recognized it as recommending to
do good and enjoining not, but it seems that jurisdiction us a
different meaning other than it. Because recommending to do good and
enjoining not is an obvious and clear judgment among Muslims or the
doer of it, but jurisdiction consists of judgment render which
follows hostility, however jurisdiction does not relate to guidance
case as in it the most important thing is guidance and punishment of
an ignorant but jurisdiction is not so, but it is rendering
judgments which is enforceable by anyone.
Important Critics
If it is said that above mentioned differences are correct only if
Islamic presumptions are all in the way of reality, or if we their
that the sacred judge who believes it or realign it by an Islamic
quotation,… but it we do not satisfied by methodology and fell that
Islamic presumptions have casualty then mentioned difference would
not be correct, but hereby we should object that the purpose of
casualty is not the some as approved judgments about it. And it may
have not of the following meanings:
1.
Expedition in presumption whether competence with
reality or not.
2.
Acceptance of presumptions as casualties at the
time of error.
3.
Acceptance of spiritual methodologies as Shekh
–Azam(RA) believed, so in this case the jurist’s religions
adjudication can be legally rendered and then there would be no
difference between religious adjudication and jurisdiction. This is
a very important discussion that scientists and Islamic jurists have
talked about much and every of them has documented his reasons. But
generally speaking if we accept casualty, then there would be great
difference between religious adjudication and jurisdiction. Because
in religious adjudication, rendering judgments means that rendering
expedition judgments in presumption cases would be absolute or in
some cases it would be alone through mentioned quotations (Real
genera) rendering judgments). But jurisdiction does not have such
concern and it competes with general judgment on special case.
·
What does jurisdiction mean in Islamic jurists’
terminology?
The
first Shahid (martyr) (RA) has meant it in textbooks and the second
Shahid (RA) has accepted it except its third part and believes the
part of it relevant to claims and quarrels.
-
Is there any religious fact for jurisdiction? However,
many accept the above-mentioned meaning, but Islamic jurists
differ jurisdiction with its word-meaning and does not have any
new meaning constitution.
So he believed
that the meaning of jurisdiction is the same as Islamic quotations.
Therefore guardianship does not mean jurisdiction and seared judge
has accredited it in a special individual. Hereby, the great Islamic
jurists have mentioned many brilliant things but totally
guardianship is very accredited and reliable as Ayatollah Azma
Sayyed Abdolkasim Ardabili has objected in his book, Sharif, an
Arabic objective sentence and also Ayatollah Mohammadi Gilani in his
book, jurisdiction and justice in Islam, says that:
Islamic jurists have critics on some of those definitions. It seems
that less critical definition is: K Jurisdiction is doing Islamic
guardianship in order to render judgments for people. So renderings
judgments at quarrels, hostilities and their dissolution and in
public expeditions would be upon approved conditions.
Finally, guardianship includes jurisdiction or seared judge, so this
fact is invaluable.
An
Explanation about Guardianship
What are the
process of guardianship which the great Islamic jurists (RA) have
defined about jurisdiction and why? It is clear that the real
guardian is the Almighty God…. In this case the late Ayatollah Ozma
Komeini(RA) has declared something which means completely this
acclaim’s definition . Which is in Arabic sentences. And in this
paragraph, the Imam (RA) told that messangership and guardianship
together with having great knowledge and high ethics can not be
reason for rendering judgments, only the Almighty God because of his
creation and real ownership of man can render real judgments, and
Quran’s verses which recognizes judgments for Almighty God, however
after it, the guardianship allocates to Hazrat Mohammad (SA) and
after him it allocates to Imams (AS). And the reason for this
acclaim is Quran’s verses and Islamic quotations which are clear and
obvious but in the case of our discussion, guardianship of the great
Islamic jurists and judges is the reason of these explanations.
Firstly, it is Omar-bin-Hanzaleh who quotes of Imam Sadegh (AS) a
reason mentioning that. Secondly, it is quotation of Abi-rhadijah of
Imam Ali(AS) also mentioning that. And several quotations such those
ones. The time of former-governess (Kholafa), judges designated by
them were completely an theorized to render all kinds of judgments
such as retaliation, limitations execution and etc.
But at the some time, the Imams (AS) had not have such wide
authorities, as Abi-Khadijag quotes from Imam Sadegh (AS) a sentence
mentioning that or from another Imam(AS) and also from Hazrat
Ali(AS) –(javaher,vol.40,P.31).
Problem
and its Solution
Some has critics
to Omar-bin-Hanzaleh sayings because of its documentation problem.
Especially that the mentioned quotation includes absolute expert in
Islamic jurisprudence.
But documentation-wealness does not harm reasoning. So we can say
that the time of Imam Zaman’s (AF) absence, Islamic jurists can
undoubted by do their best for needed people as judgments in
political, social, civil, limitation claims, retaliations, and so
on. And the best reasons for it , are two mentioned quotations and
Abi-Khadijah’s and Sharif’s,… .
In this case,
there are some disagreements and disputes among Islamic jurists.
Some jurists believe that guardianship allocates absolute expert in
Islamic jurisprudence and no difference is between, those two
accepted quotations. And as Imam(AS) sayings, it competes with
absolute with Islamic jurisprudence. On the other hand
Abi-Khadijah’s quotation comets with general expert in Islamic
jurisprudence. In this case the late Araghi (RA) has a quotation
reasoning that unknown reason pointed to Ahlalbait (AS) is the least
procedure for Islamic jurisprudence.Anyway, if we get the two
quotations right therefore guardianship will be proved general
expertin Islamic jurisprudence. Otherwise we can accept two quoted
reasons which results to absolute Islamic jurisprudence, and
guardianship can not be allocated to general expert in Islam
jurisprudence. But forgetting quotions however old great Islamic
jurists have acted them, would be a problem.

Judicial and
legal commission’s report
The meeting of
monthly judicial and legal commission of Tehran general Justice
Administration was set up in 2001 in family court’s hall. The
meeting was begun with reciting some verses of Quran.
Rezvanfar (prosecutors’ disciplinary office of judges):
Actually, these meetings are legal critics and revision and speech
is free in it in any competence form and there is no prohibition and
I thank.
Question 203- should cases such as selection of representative and
supporter of civil judgments execution do by rendering judgment
court or judge is warranted to execute judgments too?
Farahani(the representative of Qods judicial complex:
All my esteemed colleagues in Qods complex had a unique opinion
about designation of supporter which is in competence with articles
78,86 and 112 of civil judgments exaction which would be designated
by execution officers and by virtue of Art,112, the designation of
supporter should be approved by court. But it was a dispute to
select a representative among the colleagnes.
Rezvanfar:
Should execution officer select and appoint supporter of court
Farahni: I mentioned that if there is a non-compromise exaction
officer is responsible to select it and in the case of change
request, it will announce the procedure to court and it would be
approved or refused. Otherwise, they should introduce another one
because changing necessity of it should be approved by court. About
designation of a representative about has been given such authority
and the depulity and director work beside each other, and then
designation of representative will be done by rendering Judgments
and there is no need for court of designate directly.
Pronouns (the representative of Imam-khomein complex):
This subject and problem has been solved in Arts78, 86 and 112 and
supporter selection would be by execution officer. In changing of
supporter it would be reported to court, by court approval, the
change of supporter will be done. Designation of representative, due
to his future life, would be a duty of courts, courts directors
usually select and designate representatives. I think it is court,
which should designate a representative. Kiazad (representative of
result complex): most of my colleagnes and judges in result complex
recognize courts as designators of representatives. But do there are
separate in residential places and vehicles. For residential places
courts do the document preparation and for vehicles there is no need
to introduce court’s representative. By virtue of Art.77 supporter
is designated by parties’ agreement. Exertion chief will select
execution officer the best way is to do it by rendering judgments.
Rezvanfar, by virtue of Art.88 supportar’s designation would be by
court, otherwise would by by execution officer, court only approves
it and not certify. Otherwise to all, it can be designated by
rendering judgments and there is no problem to it.
Shahsavari (the representative of supreme tribural of the country):
A Judge cannot do it through court sessions. He , himself, is
responsible to designate supporter and select representativer, at
the time of preparation of judgments execution law, it was assumed
that the future objections would be solved in court. The executor
can hold any title and if he is even a judge so it would be out of
his outhorities. In law, there are some duties and outhorities for
exactor of judgment and some are of authorizations of court. Zandi
(Deputy to general director of Tehran
Justice Administration):
We put it on vote, but when a supporter is going to be changed, its
approval suggestion is a responsibility of court. There were some
different suggestions about designation of representative, but if
there are some who thin that designation of representative would be
by court’s opinion, please acclaim.
One of the presents:
We should differ between them, meaning that for preparation of a
document, it should be signed by court’s representative, by virtue
of Art.145. Art.64 tells that public prosecutor’s representative
would be another case.
Zande- The dispute point, here is now the representative of public
prosecutor, is it how from courts authorizations or judicial
district authorizations?
Rezvanfar: After amounting that the authorities of public prosecutor
should be given to the directors of Justice Administration the
problem had been a penalty one and they did not suggest it as a
legal one. Then the subject went under vote of minimum
and maximum of members as the following.
Majority opinion:
By virtue of Art.78, of civil judgments execution, the execution
officer will designate a supporter, so in this case, court has no
interference so , by virtue of Art.86 of the some law, the change of
supporter should be approved by court, the minimum’s
opinion:
Regarding omitting of prosecutors’ offices from judicial
establishments and due to execution of judgments is under
supervision of rendering courts, designation of representative is a
responsible of court not of the director of district judicial
centers.
Question 204- How is rendering judgments and writs for the people
who sign blank cheques?
Rafiei (Representative of Sadeghieh complex):
It is on judge’s duties. Legislator has defined its conditions. In
penalty proceeding law the proper penalty has been mentioned for it
and it was defined times ago.
Sarvi (Representative of Varamin Justice Administration):
Our colleagues believed that for blank cheques, a guarantee should
be issued.
Shahsavari (the country supreme tribunal):
It was said that blank cheques need guarantee, but if it is together
with other offenses, other special guarantees should be issued for
him/her. Mozafari (Representative of kids-complex): In Art.47 of
Islamic penalty law has been mentioned that in occurrence of several
offenses, the penalties would be separate and if all of them are
similar, then a unique penalty judgment should be rendered. After
the Islamic revolution, they should render special and separate
judgments for accusation especially for cheques. Then they polled
the following opinion was approved:
Theory (unanimity) 2001:
By virtue of Art.18 of cheque law, for blank-cheque accusation,
issuance of cash guarantee or (bank-guarantee) is necessary, and the
amount of cheque and its balance to bank-guarantee would be very
important.
Question 205- If complainant has no real address to issue court
notification, so what is responsibility of court office to issue
another notification?
Majority opinion:
If the mentioned address by petitioner of complainant would be wrong
or changed) then court’s office has no responsibility against it.
MinimumsTheory:
The address of complainant would not be recognized, so there is no
responsibility against it. Or notice-officer reports that
complainant has changed his address (e.g. changing address one day
before presence of notice-officer), in this case a second and
further notice will be sent to the complainant’s address.

Especial Report
In the early
1995, during establishment of public and revolution courts
throughout the country, judicial complex No.5 – which was located in
shoush Sq. ( East Shoush St.) – was changed to Besat judicial
complex and with holding 15 active branches began rendering
judicial services to the people resident in Tehran’s municipality
regions No.16 and 19 areas .
With regards to
this fact that the former complex location was not suitable for
servicing and was a subject to permanent objections of the people
especially females , Tehran justice administration authorities
decided to change the location of it . For this submission , two
short-term and long-term actions were committed . In short-term
operation , a more suitable location was allocated to it (located in
Anbar-e-Naft St. , Gomrok Sq.) and in long-term operation with the
co-operation of Tehran’s region #16 former mayor , a large
place in northern side of Tehran north terminal was purchased and
now most of the building construction has finished and will be
opened soon.
Besat complex
has 25 branches which at present , only 15 branches of it are
active. 25 judges will set up trials in this complex which includes
50% of needed judges in this complex for hearing claims of the
regions’ people . Among the judges 4 are authors and some of them
teach in universities and higher education centers. At the present ,
Mr. Akbari is supervisor and chairman of the complex.
One of the last
changes in this complex is giving responsibility of judgments
execution and judicial deputy to the chairman to Mr. Babak Razmsaz.
In the activity field of this complex sheriffs No. 130 Naziabad ,
160 Khazaneh , 117 Javadieh and 152 Khaniabadno and central
criminal investigation department , SE criminal investigation
department and anti-islamic immoralities department of the south
Tehran co-operate with this complex.
In the first 6
months of current year 28,757 files including 6,139 former files
related to 2000 year have been referred to the branches of this
complex of which 23,529 files have been put on trials and closed.
The most offenses statistics related to the complex activity area
includes 4,005 dishonored cheques files , 2170 quarrels and
premeditated battery files , 1592 theft files respectively .
At the time of
preparation of this report , the shortest period for trial is
about 3 months in Tehran’s public court .
The most active
branch of this complex is branch #903 which had been able to
decrease its files from 771 to 260 files. At the present time , the
most files are related to branch #915 including 594 files. In this
report , we try to reflect the viewpoints of Besat judicial
complex judges and official staffs about different problems in their
jobs.
Judge Hamid Shafaei – Director of branch #905
100 files are normal assigning limitation
Judge Hamid
Shafaei is the director of branch #905 of Tehran’s public court .
He was employed by Iran’s Judicial system and has 25 years of work
experience as one of the oldest judges of Besat judicial complex .
He has worked in Sistan-Balouchestan and Khorasan provinces and as
an interrogator in Kerman public court .
He was
transferred to Tehran in 1999 and started his job in Besat
complex. When the director of branch #905 accepted this
responsibility the extant documents were 3200 files who succeeded
to decrease such high number to 28 files and from the aspect of
quantity his work was very unprecedented . At the present , the
monthly average files assigning to this branch are 380 files .
Naturally , he believes ,himself, that normal monthly assigning
files should be about 100 to 120 files .
About revival of
prosecutors’ departments , Shafaei says : “ This matter would be
very effective since around 50 to 60 percents of files are closed
during prosecutors’ department procedures and around 40 percent
enter courts . Naturally , with this procedure , courts can put the
files on trials much better according to quality factors . When the
number of files are low quantitatively , there will be much time
to try and examine them and the quality will rise. I think if the
prosecutors’ departments revive the monthly statistics of files will
again reach 100 to 120 . “
The director of
branch #905 about the welfare situation of judges and staffs
announces : “ If the house problem of judges is removed , the
other problems will be tolerable .My monthly salary is RLS2,800,000
and I pay RLS 1,700,000 of it to justice administration as my
monthly debt installment . I am living together with my 8 family
members in a 55 square metes organizational home and 2 of my
children are university students . Here we have a staff member
whose monthly salary is RLS350,000 to RLS 400,000 . Therefore , the
authorities should submit essentially on this case. “
Shafaei quoted a
memory about his own job which you will enjoy to hear it : “ When
he was living together with his family and also working in
Sistan-Balouchestan province , the wicked stop their car and shot
12 or 13 bullets toward Mr. Shafaei which only 2 scratches remain on
his face . Then the wicked after firing his car , stealing their
facilities and take 2 of his spouse’s comrades as hostages , they
ran away and freed the hostages after 24 hours . But later the
same wicked persons were arrested due to murdering of a female
teacher and after their confession to their accusations , all 3 of
them were executed .“

Judge Amin Moghaddam Zahra–The
director of branch#909
Problems and round the clock working
Amin Moghaddam
Zahra was born in 1965 and has been working as the director of
branch #909 of Tehran public court in Besat judicial complex since
1997.
He has around 12
years of work experience from which 8 years are judicial experience
and before his presence in Besat complex , he has worked in special
complex of government staffs offences , central and Justice
administration of Damavand province .
His has a M.A. in
international law and also holds clerical education . When Mr.
Moghaddam was transferred to this branch the extant documents were
1500 files which now they have been decreased to less than 500
files .
Branch #909 is a
penalty and legal branch and has an average of 400 assigned files
per month . Moghaddam explains about it that : “ We are happy to
ability to solve part of deprived people ‘s problems in the
society but according to our hostelry job we have encountered with
many problems . Working in justice administration mostly is subject
to service administration but our salary is very low that can only
be responsive to a middle-class life or even a little lower than
that . No facility has been rendered to us such as home .”
Moghaddam
believes that further revival of prosecutors’ departments would be
very effective. He recognizes the whole investigation procedure of
a file for a 20-year experience judge very difficult and believes
that by revival of prosecutors’ departments, files hearings will
be more faster and in addition to it , the hearing quality of
files will increase. All investigation procedures of a file will be
done in prosecutors’ departments and judge can put applicants’
claims on trial with complete precision and tranquility.
Judge Alireza Pakzad – The director of branch #913
Revival of prosecutors’ departments is not the only alternative
Alireza Pakzad ,
the director of branch # 913 of Besat judicial complex has been
employed to Justice Administration since 1980 . He has judicial work
experience in West-Azarbaijan , Zanjan and Tehran provinces .
Pakzad’s began his job as an assistant to the district attorney and
in some periods he has worked as interrogator , substituting judge ,
and banking legal affairs expert.
Branch #913 is a
legal branch that one third of all legal files are assigned to
this branch. the average number of the assigned files tom this
branch is 130 or 140 per month .
Pakzad explains
about the judges welfare problems that : “ At the present , the
facilities which are descent and suitable for a judge are not
available for us and regarding life expenses in Tehran in compare
with other provinces , this subject seems to be more important.”
The director of
branch#913 of Besat complex believes that Judiciary Power’s
authorities are aware from our current problems but unfortunately
they have not attempted to remove them or may not have the ability
to do so .
Concerning
revival of prosecutors’ office says: “ I was opponent to
postponing prosecutor’s offices and believed that it could not be a
correct action . After postponing prosecutors’ offices
less-experienced judges rendered unconsidered and precipitant
judgments. Further revival of prosecutors’ offices is not the only
alternative and can not remove all inadequacies .Judges deficiency
and staffs and judges economical situation interferes in this
matter too. From the preliminary educational steps in this course
essential investigations should be done and advancement hierarchy
should be noted too and individuals should approach higher ranks on
the basis of their own experience. “
Pakzad assesses
paying attention to cultural inadequacies, poverty and unemployment
in order to remove problems and Justice Administration problems as
an important factor and he recognized poverty as the most important
factor to criminality. He believes that continuos cultural activity
beside judicial submissions can obstruct several problems in Justice
Administration and it can decrease people’s referring to Justice
Administration.
Judge Hossein Salamat - The director
of Branch #906
Precision has been sacrificed by speed
Hossein Salamat ,
the director of branch #906 of Besat judicial complex and has about
7 years of work experience . He had responsibility of executive
affairs about 15 years and his executive works has been in
relation with prosecutor’s office so because this reason he is more
familiar with the previous establishments . In the period of his
direction upon the branch , the extant of documents was 905 files
which has been decreased to 400 files at the present time .
According to Salamat sayings , files assignment is 150 in average
per month . In addition to them , there are sheriffs files ,
vicarious and other files too.
Salamat agrees
with revival of prosecutors’ offices also recognizes reopening of
prosecutors’ offices very effective with regards to files
aggregation and referring people’s number. He believes that
prosecutors’ office is a necessity to judicial affairs .
Prosecutors’ offices decrease incoming files to court and balances
the current accumulation of works in courts . In such status , trial
judge can try and examine cases with ease and tranquility. Regarding
this fact that at the present the number of files and referring
people to courts are upon responsibility of courts up to
committing affairs and investigation procedures up to rendering
final judgments , much working pressure seems to be which causes
not to cover certain rights of clienteles in an idealistic way . In
spite of hostelry activity of judges , can not be responsive to
people perfectly and clienteles object to quash of a right .
The director of
branch #906 of Besat judicial complex does not attribute lacking
prosecutors offices as the only reason for closing many files and
says : “ Social , economical and cultural problems are the second
reason which increases referring clienteles to courts. People’s
problems accumulate out of courts and the people lead all these
problems to courts .This situation with the present conditions of
courts and these facilities and personnel can not be compared and
works do not go ahead better than this . Actually , we examine
cases before courts . Existing some problems such as poverty ,
unemployment , addiction , economical problems and etc. that we
should solve all these problems makes precision be sacrificed by
speed . “
According to
Salamat , judges problems has been existed from far ago and there
has paid no special attention to these problems . At the present
time , there is no benefit for judges position which has been
granted in religion . there is much speech about judges
responsibilities but there is no saying about awarding facilities to
judges . judges have problem in the case of house-providing and
should pay half their salary as rent . Even loans allocating to
judges should be reimbursed with 16% of interest but there are
not such conditions in other institutes . There is no accordance
between judges salary and their work volume . Judge has an special
responsibility so needs to special attention too.
Judge
Sayyed Mohammad Majidi –The director of branch #912
Revival of prosecutors offices causes balancing the volume of works
Sayyed Mohammad
Majidi has been working as the director of branch #912 of Besat
judicial complex from July 2001 and in past has worked as a
substituting judge in the same branch . In his past job , Majidi
had an extant documents including 250 files for putting on trials
which has been decreased to a number of 110 files . He agrees with
further revival of prosecutors’ offices and believes that
prosecutors’ offices were successful in the past and according to
jurisprudence , university teachers and country supreme judges the
revival of prosecutors’ offices can balance files accumulation at
the present .
Majidi believes
that revival of prosecutors’ offices in the case of approval can be
qualitative and improves courts current situations.
He recognizes
lacking personnel and notifications and summons issuance unit as
the most important problems of judges and generally Justice
Administration . He believes that summons and notifications do not
receive to people and clienteles at their due date and causes
problems for judges .
He assesses the
financial and life situation of Justice Administration staffs
unfavorable and offers Justice Administration authorities to examine
this important matter seriously .
He was asked to
tell us a working memory in Besat judicial complex and he declared
that : “ The subject of one of this branch’s files was about a
person accused to theft . He used to enter to people’s houses as
an electricity office staff and steal from there . The accused used
to make his family members beside electricity-meter and with excuse
of repairing electricity wires enter houses and commit theft . When
he was brought to this branch I was informed that he committed
suicide while he had been in jail by eating pubic hair-remover .
But Criminal investigation department’s officers was informed
immediately and transferred him to hospital and by washing his
alimentary canal and digestion system his life was saved .
Farajollah Afifi – The director of
branch #901
Trial period of files has been decreased
Farajollah Afifi
was designated as the director of branch #901 of Besat judicial
complex since 1997 . He was born in 1969 and has 25% injury of war
. He has a B.A. from judicial sciences faculty and now he studies in
the last semester of M.A. in international law in Shahid
Beheshti university . He married in 1995 and has a daughter . In
the same year he worked as investigation judge in Varamin.
His branch tries
both penalty affairs and legal claims . When he was designated as
director of this branch the extant documents included about 1440
file but at the present only 97 files have been remained . Such
decrease was done under a condition that he put 40 to 50 files on
trials each day . About time period of trials , he says : “ the
trial periods belonging to this branch has changed to 20 days from
2001 and we response petitions the day after. But in the past trial
periods were mostly 16 months . “
On the basis of
his sayings the closed files in this branch in May 2000 included 860
files and in June thereof it reached 878 files . These files
were examined under circumstances that the director together with
his colleagues were obligated to rest only 2 to 3 hours per 24 hours
due to works and files accumulation. According to Afifi , judgment
is a very important matter and these work and file accumulations
should not affect judgment itself and put it under pressure. He
added also : “ Judge should not encounter with a high volume of work
. Even it is said that judge should be cared not to put on
unsuitable shoes and be in complete comfort Now guess what should we
do about these accumulations and crowds. But we did not have any
remedy and clienteles trials ‘ files were very important and we
should conclude and finish them as soon as possible . “
He believes that
when 860 files should be tried in one month , it would be
obvious that judicial delinquencies increase. About average number
of referring files he believes that examining 10 to 15 files per
day would be an acceptable statistics . With this existing
conditions , judge can listen to parties confessions carefully and
looks into their documents and render a proper judgment reasonably.
While a judge is to work from 8:00 A.M. till 2:00 A.M. he listens to
clienteles’ confessions in summary inevitably and therefore the
quality of trials and examining files would lessen . He recognizes
specialization of penalty and legal courts as a suitable solution in
order to arise quality and he resembles prosecutors’ offices to a
filter which can prevent directing all files toward judge. By the
way , he believes that former prosecutors’ offices had been very
successful practically and concurrent ones –in the case of their
revival- would not be like the former ones .
He recognizes the
most bitter time for a judge when the right of a wronged abuses or
when a clientele is obligated to tolerate much time for solving
his/her own problems to approach right.
Judge Hamid Norouzi – The director of branch #910
A small deed is more important than many speeches and sayings
Hamid Norouzi
was designated as the director of branch #910 of Besat judicial
complex from 1994 .
In his commission
period the extant documents were more than 1300 files under his
supervision and it has been decreases to 300 files per month . The
maximum finished and closed files thereof had been 700 file monthly
and the minimum had been 300 files per month .
Nourouzi has 20
years of experience . He started his job as an assistant to the
district attorney and some time also he had been working as the
attorney general of the country as responsible to assess and
interview with personnel . Afterwards he used to work as substitute
to the revolution attorney and also special substituting judge of
the government staffs.
He is hopeful
about judgment periodical since it can reflex judge problems and
tells : “ One of the great problems which judges encounter with it
is obstructions and problems making by the bar association
concerning awarding the bar certificates for judges and this
matter endangers judges job security after their retirement ,
resignation and redeeming . “
He believes that
everyone have the right to choose his own favorite job and the
government should support him/her in this concern . He regretted to
mention this fact that the bar association asks judges to prepare
non-criminal record (penal record) , opium and morphine medical
tests and etc. to get a certificate of the bar and defines it as
an irrespective action toward judicial system . He adds : “ judges
do not conceal the fact that the bar acts in accordance with the
approved regulations . But whether this vacuum and the legal
problem are not solvable ?!
He recognizes
unfavorite welfare and life situations of judges as the second
problem ,and believes that after the revolution it is not a good
feature to be so and also shows a descending and downturn procedure
rather than before . He relies to a historical example and
continues : “ In Dr.Bagher Agheli’s book named “ Davar and
Justice Administration” has been written that once upon a time
Mr. Davar requested Mosadegh – who was the leader of the assembly’s
minority fraction - to accept Tehran public attorney position at
those times . Mosadegh’s salary in assembly was RLS 2000 and Mr.
Davar suggested RLS 10,000 as Mosadegh’s salary in his new position
. This means that Tehran’s public attorney’s salary at that time had
been 5 times than an assembly’s representative and indicates the
good welfare situation level of judges at that period of time . “
He asks for
accordance and comparison between judges and the assembly’s
representatives and with appointing to the critical judicial staffs
welfare situations and reasons that this would be an encouraging
point for Justice Administration staffs. He also believes that
sufficient salary , files accumulation and working hours decrease
would highly qualify judges operation . For example a car is given
to a judge or a staff for his 30-year service but its total price is
defalcated from his/her salary . “
About the fact
that Justice Administration has no attraction for judges adds: “ I
believe that A small deed is more important than many speeches and
sayings.”
Judge Ayoub Shokr Amraji – The
director of judgments’ execution branch
A judge should be in complete comfort and welfare
Ayoub Shokr
Ahmadi is the director of penalty judgments’ execution branch of
Besat judicial
complex . He has a
M.A. in criminology and criminal law from Tehran state university
and has more than 2 years of experience
The number of the
referring files to this branch for judgment execution per month is
around 250 or 270 files and even some time ago , the extant
documents in the above-mentioned branch was 400 files . This branch
includes branches No. 909 to 915 of Besat complex all under
supervision of Mr. Amraji . He says about his own job situation
that : “ In other judicial complexes there is one penal judgment
execution branch for each 3 examining and trying branches but in
Besat judicial complex despite existing 15 branches for offenses
trials there are only 3 branches for judgments execution. Therefore
, I should work alone and do as 3 judges . We are in lack of
judicial colleagues and administration personnel . I try very
complicated penal and legal files in this branch and even obligate
to do my job in my house. “
About welfare
situation of judges , he believes that with reference to Islam
religion , judge should be in complete welfare and even have a
lawyer for his daily affairs . But now regarding Judgment position
in Islam , there is no comparison accordance between works volume
and salary amount . The bill of reforming parts of law acts
about formation of public and revolution courts mostly has been
welcomed by judges and he says : “ When works would be specialized
, public rights of people would be revived and clienteles affairs
would be tried and examined easier and better . After revival of
prosecutors’ offices , research judges who are doing their own
responsibilities can try files as research assistant to the district
attorney . Files trials have their own procedures which could be
done after revival of prosecutors’ offices . At the present time and
with current system in which judge is both in the position of
attorney at law and arbitrator , clienteles rights are notified
less. Reopening of prosecutors’ offices can solve many of these
problems . “
Judge Mir Ali Jamei – The research
judge
Division of works can lead to quality improvement
Mir Ali Jamei is
the director of penal judgments execution branch of Best judicial
complex and has 2 years of work experience in judicial system of
country . He has a M.A. in criminal law and criminology from
Tehran state university.
The works
procedure in penal execution branch is in way that after relevant
procedures done on file and rendering final judgments is sent to
judgments execution branch and it executes the rendered judgments
such as imprisonment , cash penalty , lashing and etc. He quotes
that 400 to 500 penal files for judgments execution are referred to
that branch .
He believes that
reopening of prosecutors’ offices will assist to lessening of the
files volume . With regards to this fact that at the present time ,
all trial procedures related to a file is a task of judge now , but
after reopening of prosecutors’ offices division of works would be
done in a favorite way . Due to such division the petitioner and
accused rights would be uttered better and perfectly .
About judges
problems he announces that : “ Judgment is a very difficult and full
of complicated responsibilities . Salary and facilities belonging
to a judge should be in accordance with his work volume . In Islamic
jurisprudence has been appointed to this matter that a judge should
have servants or even appointed that he/she should not buy things
himself but servants . In European countries judges are granted
blank cheques and even in poorer countries than Iran such as
Pakistan and Turkey they are given vehicles. At the present , a
judge’s salary does not compare with the volume of his works
specially in Tehran in which expenses are more than provinces. “
Jamei recognizes
people role to assist courts necessary and believes that people
should have sufficient information about their own rights and also
the procedures of a file . To add such information and legal ones
there would be a necessity of guidance units in courts . Clienteles
to Besat judicial complex are mostly from poor class and level of
the society and do not have enough information . For this reason
judge’s works would be more difficult . If there would be sufficient
information volume of files would be decreased and the time wasted
less.
Judge Abdolhashem Yaghoubi – Deputy to referring files division
The problems are obvious
Abdolhashem
Yaghoubi is deputy to referring files in Besat judicial complex.
He has a M.A. in criminology and criminal law course. He had been
the director of Tehran’s public judgments branch and he has been
working in his current position for 4 years. He also works as a
part-time teacher in law courses in university and 10 volumes of his
books have been published .
About revival of
prosecutors’ offices , he believes that this will assist to square
substituting judgment , quickness of trying the petitions and
decrease of extant documents . Omitting attorney at law is
practically transferred his , his deputy and interrogator to
executing officers and this is out of legal responsibilities of
Justice Administration’s executors (Law enforcement ) and is not to
the expedient of the society and files’ parties .
Therefore , the
minimum benefit of revival of prosecutors’ offices is returning
those essential and legal duties of judiciary power and attorney at
law to prosecutors’ offices . Precision in trials due to attorney ,
deputies to him and interrogators interference in investigation and
pursuit are of other revival advantages of prosecutors’ offices .
Essentially , substituting judgments and investigation together in
one center is out of legal principles and regulations.
Referring deputy
of Besat complex says about welfare problems of judicial and
administration staffs that : “ These problems are not hidden ones
and have been considered by judiciary power authorities and
especially Ayatollah Shahroudi , the chief of judiciary power .
Otherwise this problem finally should be requested from the
revolution supreme leader to solve. Out of all these cases ,
ultimately irrecoverable deficits which we had up to now would be
increased up to country-wide problem for all the society. “
Finally , he
thanked all his colleagues in his 2 years of activity in Besat
judicial complex specially the former manager of the complex ,
Mr. Hamidian and hopes day by day and continuos success for
current manager of the complex , Mr. Akbari .
At the end of
interview , he recognizes press and T.V. networks as necessities
for Justice Administration .
Babak Razmsaz – The
director of judgments execution
Applying experienced authorities’ opinions
Babak Razmsaz is
judgments execution deputy of Besat judicial complex . He was
already the director of branch #904 of Tehran Public court . In a
period of time he was also working as investigation judge in
government staffs complex and before formation of public courts he
was working in prosecutors’ offices.
Concerning the
existing problems in Justice Administration , he tells: “ plenty
of clienteles , work and files accumulation, lack of judge and
experienced staffs are our judicial colleagues’ problems . There
are some partial problems too such as some facilities needed for
judges for example : law books that we do not have . “
He proposed to
apply experienced authorities opinions to remove the present
problems . Because they were directly in touch of the people’s
problems concerning judicial affairs . He believes that revival of
prosecutors offices would be beneficial if it would have a strong
backrest and if needed expertisems in this concern take place .
According to him formation of a new establishment in any
situation and period of time needs precise planning and research .
To access to a new and successful establishment we can use the
opinions of the expert and experienced individuals.
He added : “
Prosecutors’ offices need to new regulations and rules and their
reference is 1911 acts which is related to 80 or 90 years ago
then it can not be so beneficial . If we have general and perfect
regulations and do their know-how we would have a suitable and
beneficial situations . In addition , judicial and administration
colleagues of Justice Administration would do their own best in this
case.”
When he was asked
to tell a memory with acknowledgment that all judicial job is
memory , he announced : “ About omitting prosecutors’ offices and
establishing public courts I can appoint to a memory relevant to
necessity of hostelry of murdering cases judges activity and it
was a night when the day after it was going to be submitted for a
system change to activate current system . It was not recognized
whether murder interrogator or investigation judge is responsible
to examine and try files!”. He believes that preventing such
problems needs to submit for widespread research .
He also believes
that judicial system belongs to all staffs of this complex and
recognizes his own and colleagues credit as high efficiency of this
system and with reference to Hazrat Ali (AS) who has told : “ the
people who has two similar says are wronged “ , I hope in near
future judicial system’s operation will be better and better day
by day to make servicing to people possible .
Mohammad Taghi Mohammad Nezami – General office manager
The number of branches should be increased
Mohammad Taghi
Mohammad Nezami has a B.A. in Law and 26 years of work experience
and is an old and full experience member of Justice Administration
. He has been working in Besat judicial complex for about 6 years .
Concerning the complex situation , he says : “ This complex has been
located in southern part of Tehran and rented . Most of its
clienteles are from poor level of the society and naturally it has
many clienteles . We encounter with space and facilities lack here.
Furthermore , another building for this complex is under
construction and we hope to be finished soonest to move there .
This matter can solve our space lack problem . “
According to him
, 2500 to 3000 files are entered Besat complex monthly which are
distributed to the branches . And the same number of files are
closed per month . With these explanations if we want to put files
on trials in a gentle and favorite way we should increase the number
of branches .
As the general
office manager of Besat complex , he is responsible for the complex
administration affairs , presence and absence control of
administrative personnel , supervision upon administration affairs
of courts branches and judgments execution departments ,
supervision on staff affairs such as secretariat , computer
department , typing , notification issuance unit , declarations
office , properties storekeeping , morgue , services and
installations , response to clienteles problems about administration
affairs , conformity with clienteles original documents and
preparing reports from files referred by the complex chief.
About judges and
administration section problems related to Besat complex , he says:
“ Administration personnel are more in depravation . Some of the
staffs are living with a very low salary which may most of it is
paid for their houses rent fees. Long working hours affect on
judicial colleagues operation negatively and is effective in
their decision-making . But unfortunately there is no other
alternative. We encounter with the lack of judges , staffs ,
facilities , salaries and fringe benefits problems .The custom and
usual conditions existing in other ministries do not seem to exist
In judicial power desirably such as recreation and sport centers
and fringe benefits and rewards during service term. “
He appoints to
obedience of improvement hierarchy in Justice Administration too.
He believes when a staff enters an office , he/she passes the way
of improvement and approaches higher positions and ranks , but there
is no such a formation in Justice Administration .
Judge Sayyed Mohammad Ghazavi – The
director of branch # 911
The problem is accumulation of files
Sayyed
Mohammad Ghazavi is the director of branch # 911 of Tehran public
court . He recognizes present problems of Justice Administration as
much accumulation of files and believes that with condition under
which courts are both prosecutors’ offices and arbitrating places
now the problem has been more . He says : “ Many of files are very
complicated ones and need more precision . We should act both the
duties of substituting judge and court chief . With this current
accumulated files , examining all affairs would be difficult . but I
do not mean that prosecutors’ offices should be revived . According
to me , prosecutors ‘ offices revival would be a tragedy . If
courts and prosecutors’ offices would like to work independently
it would cause problems . If prosecutors’ offices do not work
under supervision of courts and pursue and investigate files ,
render bills of indictment and then file be referred to court and
it makes act in conformity of bill of indictment then all
this process would not be correct.
At the present ,
there are 9 and 10 –year recorded files here. These files have
been studied and we understood that the problem is due to
prosecutors’ office. For example something has not been fraud but
they have defined it fraud. Prosecutors’ offices revival in the
former way is not expedient and correct at all. It is better to
designate a substituting judge for each or for two courts to work
under supervision of that court . Court should try only arranged
files and not to submit for all procedures of a file . “
He mentioned “
Justice Administration lawyers” as the second problem and believes
that lawyers in addition to delay a and linger courts’ duties ,
they receive a salary which is equal to the annual salary of a
judge . He appoints it an injustice . He also announces that : “ A
lawyer should be responsible to siding right and recognize right not
to side the party whom he receives money and wage.”
He thinks that
allocation of blood-money only to cow , lamb and camel is wrong .
and adds : “ In religion there are six cases but three of them have
been notified. Some years ago I proposed to mint Derham , which is
one of blood-money cases, as coins and hand it to banks . Then
banks should have the authority to evaluate its price under
conditions in which others can not benefit them and melt them to
send it out of country such as Bahar-Azadi coins. “
Judge Mohammad Hossein Shamlou Ahmadi
Strengthen people’s faith
Mohammad Hossein
Shamlou Ahmadi is the investigation judge of branch #903 of Besat
judicial complex. He had been already substituting judge of
Isfahan Justice Administration and came to Tehran to study his
M.A. course.
Branch #903 is a
penal and legal branch and tries all referred files except those
which are not related to this branch or other branches of public
courts such as kids or murdering cases which are related to kids
or criminal complexes .
After referring
files to this branch , the file will be given to a judge and he
should investigate with conformity of authorities signified by the
director for him . After completing investigations , he should
return the file together with work report to the director of
branch . If there seems a deficient in investigation , the
supplementary investigation should be done , otherwise a date
would be arrange for it and it would be tried and examined.
About reforming
parts of government bill of revolution and public courts says that
: “ This fact was obvious that Islamic guardian council rejected
prosecutors’ offices and its reason was non- recognition of its
proceedings regulations and also the proposed prosecutors’ offices
were not in accordance with religion and this problem should have
been solved . Regarding this multi-article bill there was not
possibility to prosecutors’ offices revival . According to me , if
this act was approved , the conditions would be more difficult than
that now . When public courts were established , all files were
transferred to archive and now in 2001 , the files are being
investigated gradually and exited from archive.
If these
prosecutors’ offices were set up by the proposed law , the files
were transferred to archive and it actually wasted the time.
Secondly, at present period of time it is not suitable time for
establishing prosecutors’ offices because public courts are
advancing and gradually are being famous and scheduled . We
should be patient for at least 10 years to consider the results
whether this court results or not. Then we can sum up the results
and investigate them . After solving problems we should approve a
comprehensive law and obstruction and form a board including
experienced judges , lawyers and scholars to study the result and
investigate it in all their aspects. With regards to the
investigations , if there is no deficiency or problem it should
be executable at least one year later. “
He believes that
this expect which mentions that all the people should be informed
of their own rights , constitution and ordinary laws is not
possible totally. To decrease offenses and quarrels , we should
strengthen people’s faith and religion . If the people bound to
religious regulations and respect others many problems will be
automatically removed .
At the end , he
assessed improvement hierarchy obedience in Justice Administration
as an important and necessary factor and recognized the most general
problem of Justice Administration as lack of management and
sufficient human resources .
Mousa-alreza Akbari – The supervisor of Besat judicial complex
Tehran’s Justice Administration should solve the lack of Judicial
and administration personnel of the complex
Mousaalreza
Akbari is the supervisor and head of Besat judicial complex. He has
a B.A. in judicial sciences course from judicial sciences faculty
and has a M.A. in criminology and crime law from Tehran state
university . Some of his positions are as follows : Deputy to
Hashemi judicial complex , deputy to Imam Khomeini (RA) judicial
complex , the director of branch #219 of Tehran public court ,
judicial deputy to the general chief of Tehran’s Justice
Administration and the supervisor of Besat judicial complex.
Now it is near to
seven months that the supervision of Besat complex has been
delegated to him . In this duration , it has been tried to guide
and advise the clienteles of this judicial complex who are mostly
from Tehran’s poor people living in south Tehran to claim or file
their petitions in accordance with substitution-judgment
principles and regulations by establishing judicial guidance
department. This matter prevents claiming penal or legal claims
instead of each other and avoids courts and clienteles time-wasting
and also by establishing judgments execution branches under
supervision of a judge who has emitted this unit from stagnancy and
all judgments executions files have been dated for supervision and
execution of rendered executions is going ahead quickly.
The next
submission was specialization of trial branches of this complex
which some have been allocated to legal cases and some to penal
cases on the basis of commerce , interest and judicial knowledge
of esteemed judges .
The supervisor of
Besat judicial complex supervise upon legal duties of judicial and
administrative personnel and tries to accelerate and speeding up
to clienteles affairs and suitable greet with them . He says about
the role of people to improve substitution-judgment situation
that : “ Increasing legal knowledge of people and their
familiarity with acts of constitution and other laws for people has
been recognized very well. And causes people defend themselves
from their own legal rights and with correct claiming of
petitions the procedure of substitution-judgment will go ahead in a
favorite way. “
Since he has
worked as assistant to district attorney of Tehran and Tabriz
public prosecutors’ offices and substitute-chief of Tehran’s
prosecutors’ office of district 7 , so concerning partial
reforming bill of revolution and public courts’ law acts believes
that prosecutors’ offices revival will assist to solve some
problems and recovers trial procedure to penal affairs . Clearly
, prosecutors’ offices revival does not affect on legal files.
From positive effects of prosecutors’ offices establishment would
be increasing supervision upon Justice Administration executors
and sending penal files by complete and perfect investigations
and rendering bill of judgments which causes penal courts not to
encounter with files accumulation-which we encounter with it now-
and render judgments with sufficient precision and opportunity and
try them . By prosecutors’ offices establishment this fault that
petitioner and judge are both one person will be removed (With
regards to public aspect of crimes) . By prosecutors’ offices
establishment the reasons will be collected by prosecutors’ office
judges and finally court will investigate and evaluate the
collected reasons from the accused and prosecutors’ office
neutrally .
Meanwhile
attorney general who has been forecasted in proceedings
regulations and revolution and public courts plays no role in
collection of reasons and trial will be from the beginning to the
end by court and the role of attorney general will be summarized
in petitions notification and pursuit request of the accused .
The supervisor of
Besat complex says about the complex problems that : “ We
encounter with the lack of judicial and administrative personnel as
it has been forecasted 25 branches of public courts in the
organizational chart of this complex but now there are only 15
court branches and 2 of them work without directors and are
directed by substituting judge. The other problem is the lack of
space to establish further branches , as there is not possible to
increase branches due to this problem . However , the lack of space
can be removed by opening the new under-construction building and
is finishing . But the lack of judicial and administrative
personnel should be solved by the province Justice Administration .
Due to location of this complex in southern part of Tehran and is
formerly renowned as a very crowded and file-fully , so judicial
and administrative personnel usually have less tendency to work in
this complex while this complex has a better situation . From other
aspects , giving services to the southern part of Tehran and poor
people is an invaluable matter. We hope that tendency for working in
this complex will increase in future. “
About lawyers
role in courts , he says that : “ Courts do not have any problem
with Justice Administration lawyers . If a file is run by a lawyer
, it is beneficial for court too because lawyers know law and in
defense of their clients and their requests do in conformity of
laws and do not submit on the cases through feelings and
enthusiasms against judicial judgments and other decisions , but
they would object against judgments and decisions in accordance of
legal regulations . Hiring Justice Administration lawyers by
petitioners can easily prevent quarrelsome between petitioners and
administrative personnel of courts branches or probably with those
judges who do not know some legal parts in some cases . “
Concerning the
way of judicial system supervision upon judicial units , he told
that : “ The inspectors of judges rules prosecutors’ offices or
inspectors of special inspectors unit of the esteemed judiciary
power chief and also pursuit unit of judiciary power petitions are
responsible to supervise on judicial units . Some inspections are
also done by the province Justice Administration . “
Petition providers
In Besat judicial complex there is a unit named “
petition-provider” which has been located in a corner of the complex
corridor , and they write down clienteles petitions and prepare
them . They prepare a petition with receiving RLS4000 from
clienteles , from which RLS 1500 belongs to petition-writer .
For getting more
information and recognition of this unit operation we had
interviewed with some of them as follows:
Ghorban Ali
Mohammadi is one of those petition-writers who is 27 years old ,
married and has a B.A. in law from Tabriz Azad University . He is
the only one of them who has law education and the others do this
work practically and through their experience . He believes that
petition-writing is the base of Justice Administration . If a
petition is not written correctly and refer to court , the related
authorities recognize its fault and problem much time after its
sending to court. This problem causes increasing the volume of
files and wastes courts time. These problems indicates the
necessity of law education for petition writers.
Daily salary of
petition writers is almost RLS15000 . Petition writers unit of
Besat judicial complex is rented to an individual who owns a copier
machine.
One of the other
petition writers says that : “ If Justice Administration employs
jobless law bachelors by paying them RLS 1,000,000 per month
and organize them in an independent unit with “petition writers”
title , the situation will be better . It is better that petition
writers be supervised by Justice Administration completely .
Employment of jobless bachelors , can decrease unemployment
statistics .
Most petition
writers believed that it would be better to improve their units
and hand them over welfare facilities . Also some of the petition
writers believed that regarding the present facilities of Justice
Administration , the petition writers conditions is suitable and
can not have expect more than this .
Concerning
petition writers situation in Besat complex we interviewed with some
of clienteles. Some believed that petition writing or in another
terms providing letters and petitions is a responsibility of
lawyers and petition writers are substitutes to lawyers and it is
better that the petition writer be a person with law education .
These clienteles recognize petition writing as a wasteful work and
believe and if some one can not hire a lawyer , court is
responsible to introduce them some individuals in order to legal
consultation .
Some of the
clienteles who were poor in financial power to hire a lawyer ,
assessed petition writers unit very effective and well .
On the other hand
, some judges believed that petition writers make problems for
clienteles and courts and in the current conditions that files
have been accumulated , this subject would be an additional reason
and the related judicial authorities should make a decision for
dignities obedience and high position of judicial system .
For instance an
individual referred to one of the petition writers in order to
providing a petition and complained from someone for some reasons .
The petition writer said to the clientele that : “Do not worry , Now
I will mention some reasons in your petition letter to knock out the
complainant . “
For this purpose
, the petition writer added some extra accusations to the
application and told if the complainant could exonerate from each
one would be in trouble with the other one . The clientele was
seemingly happy .
Most courts
authorities are opponent to this subject and tell that they can not
put them on trials so actually they are wasted their times by these
actions.

papers and letter of attorney to his petition, and finally court
summoned both sides about 2 years ago and ashed for reasons. The
representative of the complainant has declared the theory of Art.12
commission has been rendered with regards to air-plan and
investigation of the location and consequently has requested to
reject the claim of petitioner. The court has referred the case to
its own experts on the basis of bill No.1441-30/6/79 and then
because courts experts had considered no reason for civil or
fertility of the land and requested for rehearing by branch #35 of
Tehran provincial rehearing court on the basis of within verdict
No.185/35/79 due to the fact that petitioner’s requested price is
less than objection designatory, so court has rendered writ for
rehearing. Therefore since cancellation claim of Art.12 of
commission is a non-financial one, the general deputy to Tehran’s
Justice Administration requested for its rehearing and the rendered
judgment was sent to the country supreme tribunal and the needed
report would be read.
The branch board in the above-date was set up and after hearing the

Art.12 of city lands and it can be reheard in competence to clause B
of Art.331 of civil proceedings regulations, as a non-official
claim. So the rehearing court’s verdict was cancelled due to Arts.
371 and 401 of civil proceedings regulations and it was referred to
a court for essential trial. |
