6. Jurisdiction and procedure in respect of certain offences committed in countries outside Malawi

(1) Any Malawi citizen being a person employed in the public service of Malawi who commits, in any other country, when acting or purporting to act in the course of his employment, any offence which,
if committed in Malawi, would be punishable in Malawi, shall be guilty of an offence of the same nature, and subject to the same punishment, as if the offence had been committed in Malawi.

(2) A person may be proceeded against, charged, tried and punished for an offence against this section in any place in Malawi in which he is apprehended or is in custody as if the offence had been committed in that place; and the offence shall, for all purposes incidental to or consequential on the trial or punishment thereof, be deemed to have been committed in that place.
