On the sidelines of the visit, Ayatollah Raeisi pointed to the doctrine of the late Iman, adding that the Judiciary is to materialize the late Imam’s goals and it is determined to fight with corruption and discrimination and it will work for boosting justice.
He reiterated that people’s rights should not be ignored.
Meanwhile yesterday Judiciary spokesman unveiled a reform of the Judiciary’s structure to optimize its performance.
Speaking to reporters, Gholam Hossein Esmaeili said the structural reform of the Judiciary’s structure has been carried out after three months of extensive studies to make it more agile and efficient.
In the new structure, endorsed by Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Raeisi, a number of the departments of deputies and bureaus either have been merged or will run under supervision of different departments, he added.
Nearly 40 percent of the bureaus with direct link with the Judiciary chief’s office have been dissolved or merged into other bureaus, the spokesman noted, adding that at least 20 percent of the posts at the headquarters of the Judiciary are set to be ditched.
Last week, Ayatollah Raeisi called on the Iranian people and the intelligentsia to provide feedback on the judicial processes and help improve the Judiciary’s performance.
He also called on the public to make comments on the Judiciary’s performance and provide feedback on the legal processes for building a “popular, revolutionary and anti-corruption Judiciary.”
