Delinquent child rights protection

The study aimed to clarify the aspects of protection provided for the delinquent child while dealing with the security and judicial authorities in the United Arab Emirates compared to the legislation of other countries. Indeed, the phenomenon of child delinquency is one of the most dangerous phenomena that children may be exposed to and leads them to wrongdoing and obstruction of public order in society. It prompted the UAE legislator to look after the delinquent child and take care of him. The study relied on the descriptive-analytical approach, to suit it with the understanding of all its elements and the determination of the facts, through the legal analysis of the phenomenon of delinquency and the statement of its causes and legal solutions according to what was stated by the UAE legislator. The study reached many results, including that the UAE legislator, like other international legislation, devoted special care for the delinquent child by enacting a set of preventive and deterrent laws, through which the aim was to protect the delinquent child, as these legislations contained many guarantees and mechanisms that provide him with care.
