محسن شکاری، صبح امروز اعدام شد؛ آیا همه فرایندهای دادرسی منصفانه وارفاقات قانونی جمهوری اسلامی در حق او رعایت شد؟

The judiciary announced that Mohsen Shekari blocked Sattar Khan Street in Tehran and injured one of the officers with a machete.

The Supreme Court of the country, in the capacity of hearing the appeal, issued a preliminary ruling that was referred to this judicial authority by the accused lawyer Mohsen Shekari, whose lawyer has not been released to the media; In the summary of the petition, which was not published by the media, he stated:

The appeal of the convicted lawyer against Mohsen Shekari against the issued verdict is not justified.

Because the actions of the perpetrator, i.e. being in the crowd of rioters and trying to block the street and threatening people with cold weapons, as well as engaging with some security forces and injuring them with cold weapons, are among the examples (i.e. Shahr al-Islah Lakhafa al-Nas), which means the crime of war. And the decree issued in this regard follows Shari'a and legal standards, therefore it is approved and approved based on Article 469 Paragraph A of the Criminal Procedure Law.

What is important and important, and it was also discussed in Abdi Madia's previous note, is that the new policy of the judiciary apparently will not consider the combination of accusations of war and corruption and participation in murder as criteria for issuing a death sentence.

In issuing opinions on recent incidents, it seems that only the proof of each of the above charges separately is worthy of execution, and in issuing a sentence of punishment for war, he will make the most severe punishment for war, i.e. death, as the criterion for action, and he will not reach other sections of the law of punishment for war.

But regarding this convict who was executed today:
The first question is whether he has repented and applied to the court with the certainty of the verdict or in the process of proceedings according to Article 114 of the Islamic Penal Code.

If yes, what did the court do against this request?

Also, has the defense lawyer of Taskhiri or his appointment requested a retrial from the Supreme Court according to Article 474 of the Code of Criminal Procedure after the finality of the verdict resulting from the appeal from the Supreme Court?

If yes; What was the result of this retrial? If not, why exactly has the request not been made?

The second and more important question:
Did this convict have the right to apply for amnesty under Article 542 of the Criminal Procedure Code? If yes, have you benefited from this legal possibility? And why the execution of the sentence has not been delayed until the results of the pardon commission?

Abdi Media reiterates once again that he hopes the judicial branch will not sacrifice the speed of the investigation to the correct implementation of justice and compliance with all criminal proceedings and allow the accused and the convicted and their appointed or captured lawyers to use the legal facilities and friendships of the Islamic Republic.

Also, in the new judicial policy and harsh treatment, it is appropriate to publish at least the citations and arguments of the investigating branches of the Supreme Court in the appeals of such defendants to enlighten the public opinion or legal professionals of the country.
