A comparative study of right of defense of the accused in the statute of International Criminal Court

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 7

Abstract

Nowadays, right of defense of the accused is regarded as one of the main principles in a fair trial in international and regional documents as well as national laws and regulations. This right has been emphasized in the statute of International Criminal Court; it has also entitled some rights such as: the presumption of innocence, right to silence, right to counsel, ban on forced confession, etc for the accused in a fair trial. In other words, the right to a fair hearing ensures that people are not punished unfairly and illegally and their rights are observed. The legal system in Iran has also acknowledged all these rights in a broader sense than the statute itself.
