In some cases, the innate nature of criminal act is punishable regardless of realization or non-realization of any result, and in this sense, to realize the criminal responsibility, there needs causality relationship, since the relationship always requires two parties (i.e. behavior and result) and when result is not essential, the existence of a causal relationship will not be necessary. In some crimes where obtaining a criminal result is essential for its realization, three conditions are required for the realization of criminal responsibility: (i) the presence of criminal behavior, (ii) occurrence of a harmful incident, and (iii) existence of causal relationship between criminal behavior and harmful event. It is feasible to explore and prove causal relationship in some cases, especially when an agent was involved in the result realization, as someone killing somebody by a gun. Instead of providing a vivid and decisive rule, the 2012 Islamic Penal Code attempted to provide some solutions by taking certain situations and conditions into account. Given that, in transverse case of stewardess multiplicity, the result is taken into account of all parameters, and in the longitudinal case, the last stewardess may be the guarantor, the first stewardess, or even both. Besides, in the multiplicity assumption of causes transversely, equal responsibility has been ordered, and in case of longitudinal involvement, provided the unintentional crime, the primary stewardess has been mainly affected

Our country's legislator has included the instance of provisional and educational measures in Islamic Penal Code approved in 2013 with great extensive changes. Thus, in this law, it has initially repealed security measures law approved in 1981 and has obviously recognized security and educational measures for children, adolescents, and the insane, and then besides most instances of the provisional and educational measures of the above law mentioned were determined as supplementary and secondary punishments, while the other cases were specified as fundamental punishments in the form of orders and measures, some of which are protective and some are educational added to the country's penalty system. The aim of provisional and educational measures with correctional, therapeutic, and educational strategies was to reduce the amount of crimes and reform them. Nowadays, with the expansion of crimes and emergence of new ones, determination of sorts of these actions and their scope expansion can be significantly helpful in judicial system. Provisional and educational measures in 2013 law are so extensive, diverse, and modern that many of them did not exist in Islamic Penal Code. Many legal articles of this law indicate the legislator's special attention to their application as well as the correction category and criminals' rehabilitation.
