PART IV
ARREST AND SURRENDER OF PERSON TO ICC

Restrictions on Surrender

61. If a request for surrender of a person is received from the ICC and one or more States also request the extradition of the person for the same conduct that forms the basis of the crime for which the ICC seeks the person’s surrender, the Attorney General shall—
(a) notify the ICC and the requesting State of that fact; and

in respect of which surrender is sought is admissible and that the determination takes into account the investigation or prosecution conducted by the requesting State in respect of its request for extradition; or
(b) the ICC makes such a determination after receiving notification of the competing request.

(b) the ICC has determined under articles 18 and 19 of the Statute that the case is admissible.
