Abstract

The principle of adopting measures of safety in conjunction with forced penalties are

.
able to reduce recidivism in the future However, it appears that the measures of safety are
rarely implemented even though they are an alternative criminal enforcement measure that

focuses on preventing offenses in addition to forcing penalties. One of the problems that lead
to the process of implementing measures of safety is due to the judge's discretion as to

whether the measures of safety should be used In this case, the tools that judges will use in
.
discretion should be based on facts in the behavioral and psychological aspects of the

offenders as an important part rather than their behavior in the case. Therefore, the author is

interested in whether the current judiciary has the tools to investigate the facts in such areas.
According to the study, it was found that 25 courts have adopted the Psychosocial Clinic

Program in accordance with the policy of the Office of the Judiciary, which has signed a

memorandum of agreement on cooperation to conduct psychosocial counseling for the
accused or defendants in drug cases in the court system in conjunction with the relevant

.
authorities Also, according to the psychosocial clinic project, there is a consultation process
.
and counseling procedures Importantly, there is preliminary counseling assessments for
information screening and primary mental health which is a psychiatric examination to assess

emotional and psychological conditions using interview methods, observation, listening to, and
asking about the feelings of the assessed person to assess his or her state of mind For this
.
reason, the judge should be able to use this information to provide discretion in determining

the measures of safety in each case efficiently and effectively in order to reduce recidivism in
the future and let offenders return to live with their family and community normally and

happily.
