This is the original version (as it was originally made). This item of legislation is currently only available in its original format.
The Swiss Federal Council declares that extradition by Switzerland is in all cases subject to the condition that the person claimed is not brought before an extraordinary court (tribunal d'exception). It therefore reserves the right to refuse extradition:
a.if there is a possibility that the person claimed, if extradited, will be brought before an extraordinary court (tribunal d'exception) and if the requesting State does not give assurances deemed sufficient, that the judgment will be passed by a court which is generally empowered under the rules of judicial administration to pronounce on criminal matters:
b.if extradition is requested for the purpose of carrying out a sentence passed by an extraordinary court (tribunal d'exception).
Modified by letters dated 25 January 1983 and 14 October 1987.
