RELEVANT SECTIONS OF THE IMPLEMENTING LEGISLATION

IV ARREST, CUSTODY AND SURRENDER OF THE ACCUSED PERSON

The Proceeding Before the Investigative Judge

Article 24

During the interrogation the Investigative Judge shall specifically establish whether or not the accused person consents to voluntarily appear before the International Criminal Court. Should the accused person confirm it in a special document, at the same time renouncing all legal remedies in the surrender procedure, the Investigative Judge shall pass a ruling on custody only if some of the reasons specified in the Criminal Procedure Code exist. The accused person shall otherwise be released with the setting of a bond, forbidden to leave the place of residence, and/or imposed other measures to ensure the presence of the accused person and an unimpeded conduct of the criminal proceeding, specified in the Criminal Procedure Code.

The Investigative Judge shall promptly inform the Ministry about the consent of the accused person which will, in turn, undertake required measures for the accused person to appear before the International Criminal Court without delay.
