Within the meaning of this Convention the term “nationals” shall denote nationals of Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden as well as aliens domiciled in these States.
The Convention shall not apply to extradition for offences between Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden because extradition between these States is governed by uniform legislation.
Finland reserves the right, when granting extradition, to stipulate that the extradited person shall not be prosecuted for the offence in question in a court which is only provisionally, or under exceptional circumstances, empowered to deal with such offences.
Extradition requested for the execution of a sentence rendered by such special court may be refused. Finland reserves also the right to refuse extradition, if extradition on account of the age, the state of health or any other condition affecting the individual in question or on account of special conditions would be unreasonable for human reasons.
The obligation to extradite mentioned in paragraph 1 of this Article shall be restricted to offences which, under Finnish law, are punishable by a penalty more severe than imprisonment for one year.
A person sentenced in a foreign state for such offence may be extradited only if the term not yet served is deprivation of liberty for at least four months.
Finland reserves the right to regard the offence mentioned in paragraph 3 of this Article as a political offence, if such offence has been committed in open fight.
Where a military offence also comprises an offence in respect of which extradition otherwise is permissible, Finland reserves the right to stipulate that the extradited person shall not be punished under a provision pertaining to military offences.
If the person taken into custody, whose extradition has been granted, has not been taken over by the requesting State on the date appointed, Finland reserves the right to release him immediately.
