Title | : | The Impact of the Silence Provisions of the CJPOA 1994 on Practicing the Right to Silence by Suspects in Police Stations and Courts |
Country | : | Oman. |
Authors | : | Saif Al-Rawahi |
Abstract: There is no doubt that the silence provisions of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 have a significant impact on both pre and post-trial. The role of solicitors has become more complicated after such provisions. They now may be required to justify their advice of making no comments since courts made it clear that the legal advice to remain silent does not protect suspects' defence unless there are soundly-based objective reasons for such a decision. It is important for suspects to consider why they should follow their solicitors' advice. However, such advice should be given appropriate weight in deciding whether to draw adverse inferences in court...........

Title | : | The Pigeon Towers of Isfahan-Iran. |
Country | : | Egypt |
Authors | : | Ghada Abdel Monem El Gemaiey |
Abstract: This paper aims at examining a different kind of architecture, neither religious nor civil; called the pigeon towers. This kind of architecture is rare and full of beauty and mystery, although in its plan and design it resembles a military unit that extends along the city. As a matter of fact, this vertical architecture is limited mostly to the Iranian plateau. Thus, the sources of its planning are to be the writer's obsession, to clarify whether the design depended on the Iranian heritage building that appeared before Islam 'Ateshgᾱh', or became to be known through the Armenian architects who came to Isfahan during Shah Abbas period (1587-1629). Along the planning importance, the study will trace the pigeon tower's history, function, material and its main features, depending on the views of the historian, voyager and the remaining pigeon towers that exist in Iran.
