The criminal responsibility will not be realized, unless under two circumstances: 1- having resolution power 2- having free will. Lacking one of these two circumstances is considered as a barrier for the criminal responsibility. Therefore, the resolution power and free will are two basic conditions of the criminal responsibility. In Iranian criminal system, the criminal responsibility would be realized when a crime is committed the guilty is wise, mature and with full discretionary power. In Egyptian criminal system, it is presumed that punishment is personal. The Egyptian criminal system approved the criminal responsibility from other's action in 1945 and executed it. There is no clear definition and its scope isn't restricted. The criminal responsibility resulting from other's action is fully limited to the text of law in Iranian criminal system. The judicial process is practically unable to detect and create it. In addition to ensuring the public interests, the criminal responsibility resulting from other's action is both preventive and inhibitor. It also plays a constructive role in economy and protecting workers' right and capitalists. Based on what said, if it considered outside the law, it may cause harmful effects. Keywords: criminal responsibility, others' action, criminal system, criterion, Iran, Egypt

In responding to criminal phenomena, the criminal policy takes principles and
methods by which its general prospects would be revealed. Nowadays, we face
with increasing rate of crimes which violate security and welfare of the citizens
leading to change criminal policy’s strategy from offender-based towards crimebased
in order to provide the security in a way that fundamental principles of
criminalization, criminal liability, and sentencing are changed and bears a
differential interpretations. Supposing the offenders as an enemy, it creates a
hostile-oriented criminal law and due to the globalization of crimes and gross
violation of national and international security, it seeks uttermost security.
Stressing on extreme slogans of providing security for citizens, it seems that
criminal policy has encountered a kind of crisis in the context of humanitarian
law and failed to achieve its goals. Whether the security-oriented criminal policy
can reach the goals in spite of the existence of serious challenges or not is a
matter of concern in this article.

The purpose of the criminal justice system is to deal with criminals by punishing them. However, in some cases, instead of the actual criminals, innocent individuals are convicted for a crime. The main question of this study is to consider the mechanisms of the criminal justice system to improve the unfair and inaccurate result of trail. Reopening trail, which is a mechanism that Iran's legal system, like many other countries, has predicted. However, some procedural restrictions such as laps of time, make problem to hear all claims of innocence. Actually, there will be innocent convicts who never will get the opportunity to prove his/her innocence. After conviction, criminal justice system assumes the conviction is completely true. Hence, it does not find itself responsible so much.Few countries, have special system includes commission and procedure to consider the claims of innocence. finally,the role of non-governmental organization and innocence movements in this connection is undeniable.
