CHAPTER I
Extradition from Portugal
Section I
Requirements
Article 35
Postponed surrender
1. Neither the fact that criminal proceedings are pending in a Portuguese court against the person claimed, nor the fact that that person is serving a sentence involving deprivation of liberty for an offence other than the offence on the grounds of which extradition is requested, shall prevent extradition from being granted.
2. In such cases, the surrender of the person claimed may be postponed until the proceedings terminate or the sentence is served.
3. The surrender of the person may also be postponed if it is established through medical expertise that that person suffers from an illness that puts his life in danger.
5. Before denying a request for assistance under paragraph 1 (l), the requested State shall consider whether the assistance can be provided subject to specified conditions, or whether the assistance can be provided at a later date or in an alternative manner, provided that if the Court or the Prosecutor accepts the assistance subject to conditions, the Court or the Prosecutor shall abide by them.
