PART III
PROCEDURE AFTER PRELIMINARY INQUIRY AND BEFORE INDICTMENT
15.
(2) Law officer to elect whether he will indict. Procedure when he decides not to indict.
The proper law officer shall, within a reasonable time after the receipt of the copy, consider the said documents or the copy thereof, and make such further inquiry (if any) as he thinks fit, and decide whether he will, or will not, present an indictment against such person, and if the law officer decides not to present an indictment —
(b) if the accused is in custody, awaiting his trial to answer the charge for which he has been so committed or if any witness at the preliminary inquiry is in custody under the said Act for refusing to enter into or acknowledge a recognizance as provided by the said Act, the law officer shall forthwith, by an order in writing under his hand identifying the warrant under which the accused person or the witness (as the case may be) is in custody in respect of the said charge or of the said refusal (as the case may be), direct the keeper of the prison in which the accused person or the witness is detained that he shall no longer detain the accused person or the witness (as the case may be) in custody under the said warrant.
(3) On the receipt of the order, the warrant specified therein shall cease to have effect, and the said keeper shall discharge the person to whom the order applies unless, and except so far as, the person is legally liable to be kept in custody on other grounds.
(4) When the law officer has filed in the Registrar's office a notice as hereinbefore provided, the Registrar shall forthwith cause every person bound by recognizance in the case to be served with a written notice that no indictment will be presented against the accused, and that the person so bound is discharged from his said recognizance (identifying the recognizance) and that his attendance at the High Court will not be required under his said recognizance.
(5) Every person, so notified shall, from the date of the service of the notice, be released from the recognizance specified in the notice and cease to be entitled to any compensation for trouble or loss of time in respect of any subsequent attendance or continued attendance at any Court, under the said recognizance.
1. En caso de urgencia, la Corte podrá solicitar la detención provisional de la persona buscada hasta que se presente la solicitud de entrega y los documentos que la justifiquen de conformidad con el artículo 91.
2. La solicitud de detención provisional deberá hacerse por cualquier medio que permita dejar constancia escrita y contendrá:
(a) Información suficiente para identificar a la persona buscada y datos sobre su probable paradero;
(b) Una exposición concisa de los crímenes por los que se pida la detención y de los hechos que presuntamente serían constitutivos de esos crímenes, inclusive, de ser posible, la indicación de la fecha y el lugar en que se cometieron;
(c) Una declaración de que existe una orden de detención o una decisión final condenatoria respecto de la persona buscada; y
(d) Una declaración de que se presentará una solicitud de entrega de la persona buscada.
3. La persona sometida a detención provisional podrá ser puesta en libertad si el Estado requerido no hubiere recibido la solicitud de entrega y los documentos que la justifiquen, de conformidad con el artículo 91, dentro del plazo fijado en las Reglas de Procedimiento y Prueba. Sin embargo, el detenido podrá consentir en la entrega antes de que se cumpla dicho plazo siempre que lo permita el derecho interno del Estado requerido. En ese caso, el Estado requerido procederá a entregar al detenido a la Corte tan pronto como sea posible.
4. El hecho de que la persona buscada haya sido puesta en libertad de conformidad con el párrafo 3 no obstará para que sea nuevamente detenida y entregada una vez que el Estado requerido reciba la solicitud de entrega y los documentos que la justifiquen.
