Article 46. Execution of a deprivation of liberty sentence

1. A deprivation of liberty sentence imposed by the International Court may be executed on the territory of Georgia after the Responsible Agency gives consent to execute the request thereon.

2. The Responsible Agency, having consulted with a state authority competent to execute a deprivation of liberty sentence, makes a decision on executing the deprivation of liberty sentence imposed by the International Court on the territory of Georgia. The Responsible Agency shall notify its decision to the International Court.

3. At the request of the Court, the Responsible Agency provides any information related to execution of sentences. The International Court may, at any time, send its representative to Georgia to check the imprisonment conditions and to meet with and converse with the convicts. Relations between the International Court and such a convict shall be confidential.

4. If the convict submits a motion for his release parole, pardon, appeal or renewal of proceedings due to newly discovered circumstances, as appropriate state authority shall immediately forward such a motion together with other necessary documentation to the International Court. Only the International Court shall have the power to reduce the length of imprisonment or mitigate the sentence in any manner.

5. Other matters relating to the execution of the sentence shall be resolved in accordance with the applicable legislation of Georgia.
