All Penal Codes of the Middle East, Turkey and Brazil

Penal codes of Muslim-majority states and of Brazil that sit apart from the European and Asian families, among them the Egyptian, Turkish and Iranian codes and the Brazilian code. A code belongs here when its cited article describes a penal code of one of these states. It excludes the codes of Europe, Asia and the common law world. The group is a residual regional group, so a penal code is admitted only after the other penal code groups have been checked and refused it.
