One of the most significant jurisdiction of the Revolution Court is to
investigate crimes which are against the public security. However, there are
two categories regarding the concept and the realm of crimes against public
security. First, there is a broad interpretation approach toward such crimes
committed inside and outside the country which is mostly based on some
provisions such as clause (T) of article 303 cited in the criminal procedure
law. Secondly, there is a narrow interpretation on the realm of such crime
which is more favorable in jurists’ eyes. I attempt to investigate the “broad
interpretation approach” to find its contradictions to the many principles of
procedure. Beyond such interpretation, there are some temporary
consultations to find the best policy such as swift and decisive investigation
that will drive the fair trial, supposed to guarantee the individuals’ rights,
into a corner in the long term and redouble the importance of minimalistic
interpretation regarding the crimes against public security which are about
to be heard in the Revolution Court.
