We make simulations with 2 flavor Wilson fermions to investigate the nature of the end points of Roberge-Weiss (RW) first order phase transition lines. The simulations are carried out at 9 values of the hopping parameter \ensuremathκ ranging from 0.155 to 0.198 on different lattice spatial volume. The Binder cumulants, susceptibilities, and reweighted distributions of the imaginary part of the Polyakov loop are employed to determine the nature of the end points of RW transition lines. The simulations show that the RW end points are of first order at the values of \ensuremathκ in our simulations.
