Speciality of enforcement

(1) A convicted person transferred to Liechtenstein for the enforcement of a sentence passed by the International Criminal Court or International Tribunal may not be prosecuted, punished, detained or extradited to a third country on account of an act engaged in prior to the said transfer, which was not part of the judgement of the International Criminal Court or International Tribunal, without the consent of the Court or Tribunal.

(2) The speciality of enforcement shall not preclude such a measure if:

(a) following release from a sentence of imprisonment passed by the International Criminal Court, the person did not leave the territory of the Principality of Liechtenstein within 30 days, or following release from a sentence of imprisonment passed by an International Tribunal within 45 days, even though he or she was able and free to do so;

(b) the person leaves the territory of the Principality of Liechtenstein, by whatever means, and returns voluntarily or is returned legally from a third country; or

(c) the International Criminal Court or International Tribunal forgoes applying the rule of speciality.
