Article 10 of the Saudi Security Guard Law

This article specifies the authority competent for two basic stages in dealing with violations of the Law:

• Investigation of violations, that is, collecting evidence, hearing statements and establishing that a violation occurred and who committed it.
• Prosecution, that is, bringing the case concerning the violation before the body that hears it.

The body to which the text assigns this jurisdiction is the Bureau of Investigation and Public Prosecution, as stated in the article.

This article is part of a connected procedural sequence within the Law:

1. The body specified in this article conducts the investigation and prosecution.
2. The committees formed by decision of the Minister of Interior under Article 11 hear the violations and decide the appropriate penalty.
3. A person against whom a penalty decision has been issued may file a grievance against it before the Board of Grievances within 60 days from the date he is notified of the decision, under Article 11.

The article does not address investigation procedures or periods, which are subject to the general rules governing the work of the investigating body.

If you are a party to an investigation concerning a violation of this Law, it is best to consult a lawyer who specializes in criminal and administrative matters.
