Abstract

One of the instances of accessory of "abuse of power" is added to the instances of accessory in Article 126 of the Islamic Penal Code. The legal language refers to the "abuse of power" of official organizations and institutions, and in Iranian law, the abuse of power is a criminal offense and its implications are not explicitly stated in the law. Jurists have not been given a definitive definition of the concept of abuse of power; and what the concept and implications of the law are not precisely defined, in terms of scope and model, with concepts such as the abuse of physical, situational, financial, ideological, persuasive, persuasive Sexual and administrative have semantic affinities, although semantic affinities and its intimate relation to similar concepts are distinctive of abuses of power, with some similar concepts general and particularly absolute. The expansion of the concept of instances of abetting limits individual freedoms in society, and the importance of criminalizing "abuse of power" for the criminal defense of its victims. Therefore, the purpose is to examine the conceptual realm of abuse of power and its implications in the victimization measure. The method is descriptive-analytical. The dominant individual, the basis of power, is not only political but also a working relationship, a kinship, and so on.
