Article 12 of Juveniles Law

English translation

The judgment shall be for the placement of the juvenile in a specialized treatment hospital appropriate to his medical condition and age, where he shall receive the care required by his condition. The court shall supervise his continued treatment at periodic intervals, none of which may exceed one year, during which physicians' reports shall be submitted to it. The court may hand him over to the person responsible for his care if it is established to its satisfaction that his condition permits this. If the person against whom the judgment was issued reaches the age of twenty-one and his condition requires continued treatment, he shall be transferred to a specialized treatment hospital for the treatment of adults.
Arabic original
يكون الحكم بإيداع الحدث إحدى المستشفيات العلاجية المتخصصة، التي تتناسب وحالته المرضية وسنه ، ويتلقى فيها العناية التي تدعو إليها حالته. وتتولى المحكمة الرقابة على بقائه تحت العلاج في فترات دورية لا يجوز أن تزيد أي منها على سنة يعرض عليها خلالها تقارير الأطباء، وللمحكمة تسليمه لمتولي رعايته إذا ثبت لها أن حالته تسمح بذلك وإذا بلغ المحكوم عليه سن الحادية والعشرين وكانت حالته تستدعي استمرار علاجه يتم نقله إلى إحدى المستشفيات العلاجية المتخصصة لعلاج الكبار.
