Imam Khomeini, the late founder of the Islamic Republic established very strongly system which could easily survive for decades in face of the conspiracies of arrogant powers.
In 1982, Imam Khomeini issued an 8 article command to the authorities of the judiciary system and all execution organizations about changing the regulations to an Islamic form. We could consider this command of Imam, which was published four years after the revolution, as a jurisprudence verdict to address challenges facing the judiciary system.
The founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in this command emphasizes on protecting people’s privacy. Among all of Imam’s messages, his Eight Articled Directives are highly notable. Other than protecting people’s privacy, Imam also considers both sides of human dignity - meaning inherent value and dignity of individuals - and stresses on basic and important principles such as preserving human’s dignity in the field of security.
