Is the offender detained until the blood relative recovers from his insanity, even if it takes a long time?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: The author (may Allah have mercy on him) stated that if the blood relative is insane, the offender is detained until he recovers from his insanity. The question is: The recovery of an insane person may take a long time, or it may never occur. If it does take a long time, this is necessary; because the right belongs to him, he must claim it.

Answer:
Yes.
