The Position of criminals Personality File in Iran’s penal policy in 2010s
Abstract
Consideration of the perpetrator’s personality in the today’s criminal law is very important and the actualization of the restorative justice and achievement of the punishment objectives is difficult without recognizing and perceiving it; moreover, it might even cause the expansion of iniquity in lieu of serving justice. It is for the same reason that the personality file finds importance. The personality file incorporates information about the general and special statuses of the guilty such as his or her psychological, familial, educational and social conditions. Such personality files are
evaluations of the crime’s human and social aspects along with the prior familial, educational, professional, psychological and physiological attributes of the accomplice as well as the motivation of the crime perpetration and, in general, the general states of the criminal. Therefore, the present study investigates the personality file as a factor influencing the correct implementation of the restorative justice as well as its effect on the commutation of punishment. The present study is seeking to explore the issue based on a descriptive method through taking advantage of library research.
