Forensic Psychiatry


Forensic Psychiatry is a branch of psychiatry which deals with the law, assessment and treatment of mentally disordered offenders, the support and assistance of the court and related agencies. It includes mental disordered offenders in prisons, secure hospitals and community.  It is also concerned with the ethics of psychiatry, predictions, if possible, the enhancement if seriousness and the contribution of psychiatry to criminology and penology. It needs sophisticated understanding between mental health and law interfaces. In forensic psychiatry, the two main areas of criminal evaluation are Competency to Stand trial (CST) and Mental State at the Time of the Offense (MSO). The work of forensic psychiatry is mostly deals with courts in assessing a person’s competency to stand trial, defences based on mental disorders.
