Samuela Tawase, acquitted in May on a charge of sacrilege relating to the Samabula Shiv Temple, has been released into the community under a compulsory community treatment order.
Mr Tawase was accused of attacking the Samabula Hindu temple in July last year.
He was acquitted in May after the court found that he was of unsound mind at the time of the alleged offending.
The matter was before Magistrate Yogesh Prasad, who heard evidence from a doctor about Mr Tawase’s mental health and ongoing treatment.
The court heard Mr Tawase had been receiving treatment at Saint Giles Hospital and would require continued medication and monitoring if released into the community.
The doctor told the court Mr Tawase would need to take medication every night and receive a monthly injection as part of his treatment.
The court also heard there was a high risk of relapse if Mr Tawase resumed substance abuse or stopped taking his medication, which could result in a deterioration of his mental health and potentially further offending.
Mr Tawase is to be placed under a compulsory community treatment order, requiring him to attend monthly clinical reviews and continue his prescribed medication and injections.
His family will be responsible for supervising his daily medication and must report to the relevant authorities if he stops taking his medication, fails to attend treatment or resumes using drugs.
The court also ordered that Mr Tawase must not consume drugs, including marijuana, or alcohol.
Magistrate Prasad said the compulsory community treatment would provide Mr Tawase with an opportunity to rehabilitate in the community while ensuring he continued to receive medical treatment and family support.
