Abstract : The human laws seeking justice have evolved over ages. Having studied the guarantees of the accused during trial in the Saudi Criminal Procedures Law and compared them to other laws; we identified the strengths and shortcomings. We aim to improve the Criminal Procedures Law and keep up with the accelerated and sophisticated justice system in line with the vision of the Kingdom towards a more developed and just future. The Introductory Chapter tackles the historical development of the guarantees of the accused during trial. The First Chapter identifies what are guarantees of the accused during trial and the Second Chapter defines the guarantees of the accused related to judiciary. Finally, the Third Chapter examines the guarantees of the accused. The study is based on the Islamic Law, covenants, constitutions and laws and uses the analytical and comparative methods, concluding with many findings mainly: • Most of the international principles that protect the fundamental rights of the accused are derived from Islamic jurisprudence rules recognized by Islam since its inception. • The Saudi Criminal Procedures Law stipulates that the accused may appoint an attorney during investigations and trial. • The function of the judge is no longer confined to the application of the provisions of the law only, but extends to the analysis and study of the motives of the accused in all psychological, social and environmental respects. • The Saudi law takes care of the privacy of the accused and determined a special treatment suitable for the status of the accused. There are provisions that consider the privacy of women, junior, deaf, dumb and illiterate. The study has a number of recommendations, mainly: • I recommend the legislator in the Kingdom to define the specialty of the judges. • I recommend the legislator to refer explicitly to a reasonable time of the trial, whether in the trials of the first instance or the appeals.
