Chapter 5. Other provisions
Immunity
Section 5
To the extent that it has been agreed under an international agreement that is binding on Sweden, a person who upon summons in accordance with the agreement has entered Sweden in order to be heard or in another way participate in the investigation of an offence may not :
1. be prosecuted or deprived of his or her liberty or in another way subjected to restrictions to liberty by reason of an act, omission or judgment that relates to the time prior to the entry into Sweden and which, as regards a suspect or accused, is not referred to in the request or summons, or
2. without personal consent be ordered to participate in any investigation than that referred to in the request.
The first paragraph also applies to administrative or other procedures as referred to in Chapter 1, Sections 5 and 6.
Section 6
If the person referred to in Section 5 stays in Sweden for more than fifteen days from when notification was obtained from the authority that summonsed the person that attendance is no longer required, the immunity ceases. This also applies if he or she returns to Sweden after having left Sweden.
Section 7
If the agreement contains a provision that immunity shall be less extensive than stated in Sections 5 and 6, that provision applies instead.
Section 8
To the extent that it has been agreed under an international agreement that is binding on Sweden, the provisions in Section 5 to 7 concerning immunity apply also to a person deprived of liberty who has been transferred to Sweden in accordance with Chapter 4, Sections 29 or 31.
