Introduction: The occurrence of murder not only undermines social security but can also lead to the emergence of other crimes and various harms within society. This study aimed to investigate the causes and motives behind murders in Kerman province from 2018 to 2021.

Methods: The research was conducted using descriptive and documentary methods. The statistical population included documents related to murder cases in Kerman province, which were obtained from the Governor's Office of Kerman City. Data were collected by reviewing records and documents from this organization, and frequency distribution tables were used during the description phase.

Results: The research findings indicate that the main causes and motives for murders in Kerman province were, in order of prevalence: conflicts, family and clan disputes, issues of shame and honor, drug-related problems, previous disputes, theft, and financial or property disputes. Furthermore, most murders were committed using firearms.
The results also revealed that the highest number of murderers and victims were in the age group of twenty-one to thirty. Additionally, the number of male victims and male murderers exceeded that of females. Among the victims and murderers, a larger proportion were married compared to singles. Most individuals involved were freelancers, held Iranian citizenship, and did not have a criminal record. Notably, most murders were carried out without prior planning.

Conclusions: Institutions and organizations should utilize the findings of this study to thoroughly investigate the causes of murder. They must implement practical policies at various levels—individual, family, and social—to effectively control and reduce this phenomenon.
