In the Iranian Criminal Procedure Code, the victim has been operating beyond the control. Nowadays, protecting the victim's rights directly in the line of protecting the community and accused is another important objective of the criminal procedure. This research is descriptive-analytic by gathering information through library collection. The purpose of this research is to investigate and analyze the criminal procedure law for protecting the rights of the victim, witness, informed, and accused family. After reviewing the legislature's support for the victim's rights, we have come to the conclusion that the Criminal Procedure Code includes supportive programs. It also protects intuition and advocacy programs such as: non-face-to-face encounter between witnesses and informants with the plaintiff or defendant, the failure to disclose identity or housing information of witnesses and informants, the use of information technology in martyrdom audits, and obtaining information, support checking against threats or possible risks, providing for and paying for losses, investigating separately from the presence of witness, the prohibition of notifying witnesses or informants.
