What are the serious consequences if a mentally ill person breaks the law?

In the case of a mentally ill person breaking the law, it is hoped that the offender will be punished for the victim, but the punishment for the crime committed by the mentally ill in our law is also different. In accordance with the provisions of article 18 of the Criminal Law, where a mentally ill person is unable to admit or control his or her own conduct, and it is confirmed through legally-prescribed procedures that harmful consequences have been caused, he does not bear criminal responsibility, but his family or guardian shall be ordered to strictly supervise and receive medical treatment. When necessary, compulsory medical treatment is provided by **.

Where a mentally ill person has not completely lost the ability to recognize or control his or her own conduct, he shall bear criminal responsibility for the crime, but the punishment may be mitigated or commuted.

Mentally ill people often refuse to receive ** in the hospital or at home.

Guardians shall perform guardianship duties, protect the ward's person, property, and other lawful rights and interests, and must not dispose of the ward's property except for the ward's interests.

Where guardians do not perform guardianship duties or infringe upon the lawful rights and interests of their wards, they shall bear responsibility; Where property damage is caused to the ward, he shall compensate for the losses.
