[In His most Exalted Name
Blessed presence of His Holiness Supreme Ayatullah Imam Khomeini, may His presence endure,
After greetings, you are requested to please reply to the below question:
In the inquiry made from your holiness regarding drivers that cause death of individuals in accidents as a result of non-observance of the driving regulations or because of lack of driving skill. In reply, you have stated thus:
"Assuming that the violation is dissipation in relation to the self, the verdict is that it appears to be deliberate." «1» Is this verdict absolute meaning that in the opinion of your blessed holiness it is dissipation or the judgment is the responsibility of the tribunal and your holiness has given the verdict regarding the subject?"
