(a) on receipt of an authority to proceed, by a magistrate within the jurisdiction of whom such person is or is believed to be; or
(b) without such an authority, by a magistrate upon information that such person is in Jamaica or is believed to be on his way to Jamaica; so, however, that the warrant, if issued under this paragraph, shall be provisional only.
(2) A warrant of arrest under this section may be issued upon such information as would, in the opinion of the magistrate, authorize the issue of a warrant for the arrest of a person accused of committing a corresponding offence or, as the case may be, of a person alleged to be unlawfully at large after conviction of an offence, within the jurisdiction of the magistrate.
(3) A warrant of arrest issued under this section (whether or not it is a provisional order) may, without an endorsement to that effect, be executed in any part of Jamaica, whether such part is within or outside the jurisdiction of the magistrate by whom it is so issued, and may be so executed by any person to whom it is directed or by any constable
