According to the Islamic Penal Code of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the crime of baghi is defined as an armed uprising, carried out by a group, against the foundations and principles of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The crime of baghi has two forms: the first involves armed groups using weapons during their rebellion, while the second involves groups merely possessing weapons to create fear and intimidation without actually using them.
