Unintentional Homicide and Wounding Resulting from Driving Faults A Study about Its Criminal Nature and Classification

Author

Abstract

Homocide and wounding have been classified into  three categories by Islamic Penal Code of Iran, however there is another type of unintentional homicide, resulting from driving faults in ch. 27 of the fifth part of the same Code, that seems ambiguous. By examining the term in the Iranian previous codes and comparing it with the above-mentioned classification, the article does not regard this type as a distinct category but recognizes it as one of same triple categories.
