Abstract
The primary concern of justice department law enforcement as the arms of the criminal justice system is the rapid discovery of the crime. This article seeks to investigate the attitude of Iran's criminal policy or, more specifically, Iran's criminal policy towards the observance of the right to remain silent in trials. In line with this, the problem of the study translates into the question: what are the results of the observance of the right to silence of the accused in the different stages of the criminal process? Utilizing the documentary investigation method, issues related to the right of the accused to remain silent in Iran's criminal proceedings at the stage of discovery of the crime, the initial investigation stage, and the trial stage in Iran's laws on criminal procedures were investigated seminally. Among the main conclusions is that Iran's trial system, which was in line with the inquisitorial trial system, changed its procedures with the passage of the law on criminal trial procedures in 2013 and was influenced by the effect of international human rights regulations.
