Section 87
1. If witnesses, experts, victims or other persons who should be present at the seat of the ICC, no matter what their nationality, come to the Netherlands in response to a summons or subpoena or a warrant to bring them before the ICC or in response to a request of the ICC to the Netherlands for admission in accordance with the conditions in the headquarters agreement referred to in article 3, paragraph 2 of the Statute, they may not be prosecuted, arrested or subjected to any other measure that restricts their liberty in the Netherlands for offences or convictions that preceded their arrival in the Netherlands.
2.

La Corte no dará curso a una solicitud de entrega o de asistencia en virtud de la cual el Estado requerido deba actuar en forma incompatible con las obligaciones que le imponga el derecho internacional con respecto a la inmunidad de un Estado o la inmunidad diplomática de una persona o un bien de un tercer Estado, salvo que la Corte obtenga anteriormente la cooperación de ese tercer Estado para la renuncia a la inmunidad.
2.
