(1) Where the offense underlying the surrender request constitutes a serious crime, the surrender of an offender sought for surrender may be carried out, except in a case that falls under any of the following items:
(i) when the case connected with the offense underlying the surrender request is pending before a Japanese court; provided, however, that this shall not apply where the ICC has determined that the case is admissible pursuant to the provisions of article 17, paragraph 1 of the Statute or has commenced proceedings in the case;
(ii) when a final and binding judgment has been issued in the case connected with the offense underlying the surrender request by a Japanese court; provided, however, that this shall not apply where the ICC has determined that the case is admissible pursuant to the provisions of article 17, paragraph 1 of the Statute, or has rendered a judgment of conviction in the case; or
(iii) when the offender sought for surrender is clearly found to have not committed the offense underlying the surrender request, except where the ICC has rendered a judgment of conviction with regard to the offense underlying the surrender request.
(2) Where the offense underlying the surrender request is any of the crimes prescribed in article 70, paragraph 1 of the Statute, the surrender of an offender sought for surrender may be carried out, except in a case that falls under any of the following items:
(i) when, if the act constituting the offense underlying the surrender request were to be committed within Japan, said act would not constitute a crime punishable by the death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment with or without work for no fewer than three years under Japanese laws and regulations;
(ii) when, if the act constituting the offense underlying the surrender request were to be committed within Japan or if the trial for the offense underlying the surrender request were to be carried out by a Japanese court, it would be found impossible to impose a punishment on the offender sought for surrender or to execute such a punishment under Japanese laws and regulations;
(iii) when there are no reasonable grounds to suspect that the offender sought for surrender has committed the act constituting the offense underlying the surrender request, except where the ICC has rendered a judgment of conviction with regard to the offense underlying the surrender request;
(iv) when the case connected with the offense underlying the surrender request is pending before a Japanese court, or when a final and binding judgment has been issued thereon by a Japanese court;
(v) when a case connected with a crime other than the offense underlying the surrender request that has been committed by the offender sought for surrender is pending before a Japanese court, or when the offender sought for surrender has been sentenced to punishment by a Japanese court with regard to such a case and he/she has neither served out the sentence nor come to no longer be subject to the execution thereof; or
(vi) when the offender sought for surrender is a Japanese national.
