Abstract

Government penitentiaries do not have a specific procedure and the executive regulations only make a brief reference to the manner in which the state penitentiary system deals and do not meet the needs of the courts. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the proceedings in the state penitentiary organization. The research method was descriptive-analytical and library. The main question of the present study is what is the approach of Iranian law regarding the specificity of the proceedings in the State Penitentiary Organization? Government penalties do not have a specific procedure, and executive regulations provide only a brief reference to the manner in which government penitentiaries are handled and do not meet the needs of the courts. The procedure in the State Penitentiary Organization is silent on how to issue security orders, temporary detention, arrest of the accused and everything related to judicial authority. The directives issued by the organization and the existing instructions also have major objections, such as whether the authorities approving these instructions had the authority to issue them or not.
