Chapter 31 Procedure to Extradite Suspects or Accused and Convicted Persons

Article 418

Imposing Detention

If the request corresponds to the requirements referred to in Article 416 of this Code, upon the motion of the Prosecutor, the preliminary proceedings judge shall issue a decision ordering custody, if there are reasons for detention referred to in Article 132 of this Code, or the judge shall take other measures to ensure his presence, unless it is clear from the request itself that extradition is uncalled-for.

If the permanent residence or temporary residence of the alien whose extradition has been requested is not known, the Prosecutor will beforehand establish that fact via the competent Entity Ministry of Interior or via the Police of the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

If the person whose extradition is requested has changed the place of permanent residence or temporary residence in the meantime or, with a view to avoiding apprehension, has crossed from the territory of one Entity to the territory of the other Entity or to the territory of the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Entity Ministry of Interior on the territory of which that person had a previous permanent residence or temporary residence or the Police of the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina shall request the Entity Ministry of Interior on the territory of which that person is currently residing or the Police of the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina, to apprehend that person and hand him over to it. The Entity Ministries of Interior or Police of the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina shall in such cases obligatorily co-operate and may not refuse to act on requests for apprehension and escorting of the person whose extradition has been requested.

Article 20

Apprehensions of an Alien

In urgent cases, when there is a danger that the alien will escape or go in hiding, and a foreign state has requested temporary detention of the alien, the competent police authority may apprehend the alien for the purpose of taking him to the Prosecutor on the basis of the request by the competent foreign authority, regardless of how the request has been forwarded. The request should indicate data for the verification of the identity of the alien, nature and name of the criminal offense, number of decision, date, place and name of the foreign authority that has requested detention and a statement that the extradition will be requested through regular channels.

Once detention has been decided on, in line with the provision of Paragraph 1 of Article 418 of this Code and once the alien has been taken to the preliminary proceedings judge, the preliminary proceedings judge shall, upon questioning of the alien, inform the competent Ministry of Bosnia and Herzegovina about detention.

The preliminary proceedings judge shall release the alien once the reasons for detention cease to exist or if the request for extradition is not submitted within the deadline he has determined, taking into account the distance of the state requesting the extradition, and for which the deadline cannot be longer than three (3) months from the day of the detention of the alien. The foreign state shall be informed about this deadline. Upon request by the foreign state, the Panel referred to in Article 24 Paragraph 7 of this Code may extend this deadline in justified cases, but by a maximum of three (3) additional months.

When the request as stipulated has been submitted within a specified deadline, the preliminary proceedings judge shall act in line with Article 419 of this Code.
