Specific provisions
Section 5
33. Procedure for the acceptance of enforcement of sentences
4. Should the sentenced person escape from prison before the expiry of the sentence, the court of enforcement (paragraph 16 of the law on enforcement of sentences) shall issue a warrant of arrest and initiate a search. Should the person sought subsequently be arrested abroad, the court shall, even without an application from the public prosecutor, seek extradition custody pursuant to paragraph 69 of the law on extradition (ARHG) and transmit the documents required under paragraph 68 of the said law to the Federal Minister of Justice. The Federal Minister of Justice shall seek extradition if the requested State does not approve surrender without an extradition procedure, and the International Criminal Court has not decided otherwise.
