This study was conducted in relation to moral and social supports for victims and their physical and psychological alleviation. It also aimed to explain the theory of co-compensation of crime victims and analyze its normative foundations.
In this descriptive study, after the purposeful search and review of resources, the theory of co-compensation was explained and its normative foundations were analyzed.
One of the most important concerns of legal systems is to compensate for all damages and losses incurred by the crime in the shortest time and the most convenient manner outside the process of criminal court proceedings irrespective of the prosecution or punishment of offender his ability or inability to compensate for damages. This issue will be possible when a Co-compensation system is governed. The corner stone of this theory is that the Government or NGOs will compensate the harms and then sue the offender to receive paid remedies. The normative foundations of this policy are justice, social solidarity and the necessity of supporting victims of crime. This theory involves the restoration of material, emotional and even medical damages. Ethical Considerations: Honesty and confidentiality have been observed.
In Iranian criminal system, except for the notion of Zeman Aghele that is an exceptional institution derived from criminal jurisprudence, there is no specific regulation and judicial procedure related to collective compensation for losses outside the judicial system. It is recommended the principle of Collective Compensation be established by the criminal policy makers.
