That the individual shall have full protection of property and of the integrity of apersonis a principle as old as the human being’s life, but it has been found necessary from time to time to define anew the exact nature and extent of such protection. As civilization advanced, it was argued that, an individual’s feelings and intellect, as well as his physical being, came within the scope of the legal “right to be let alone.”
Iranian Constitution has guaranteed individual’s rights and freedom in article 9. So, when intrusion to eavesdropping is allowed, adequate safeguards should be provided to protect the individual’s rights. The balance approach to the problem of government intrusions into private lives appeals to common sense, but it is difficult to apply. Iranian Constitution has explicitly referred to forbiddance of eavesdropping and interception of conversations in its article 25. Article 582 of Islamic Penal Code ratified in 1996 has criminalized eavesdropping by the governmental officials. Article 104 of Criminal Procedure Code refers to the eavesdropping under the judge’s order. The latter code abolished by article 150 of new criminal procedure code ratified in 2014, which will come into force in October 2014.
