International Treaty - Section

Section 6 in Treaty on Extradition between the Republic of India and the Republic of Korea

6. If the request for extradition refers to several offences each of which is punishable under the laws of both Parties, but some of which do not fulfil the other conditions set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article, extradition may be granted for the offences provided that the person is to be extraditable for at least one extraditable offence.

Article 3Mandatory Grounds for RefusalExtradition shall not be granted under this Treaty in any of the following circumstances:
(a)when the Requested Party determines that the offence for which extradition is requested is a political offence or an offence connected with a political offence. Reference to a political offence shall not include the following offences:
(i)the taking or attempted taking of the life or an assault on the person of a Head of State or Head of Government or a member of his or her family;
(ii)an offence in respect of which the Parties have the obligation to extradite or submit the case to their competent authorities for prosecution, by reason of a multilateral international treaty/convention to which they are both parties;
(iii)murder or culpable homicide/manslaughter;
(iv)an offence, involving firearms, explosives, incendiaries, destructive devices or substances, causing death, grievous bodily harm or serious damage to property; or
(v)a conspiracy or attempt to commit, or participation in, any of the foregoing offences;
(b)when the person sought is being proceeded against or has been tried and convicted or acquitted in the territory of the Requested Party for the offence for which his extradition is requested;
(c)when the prosecution or the punishment for the offence for which extradition is requested would have been barred by lapse of time under the law of the Requested Party had the same offence been committed in the Requested Party. Acts or circumstances that would suspend the lapse of time under the law of the Requesting Party shall be given effect by the Requested Party, and in this regard the Requesting Party shall provide a written statement of the relevant provisions of its law relating to the lapse of time;
(d)when the Requested Party has well-founded reasons to suppose that the request for extradition has been presented with a view to prosecuting or punishing the person sought, by reason of race, religion, nationality, sex or political opinion, or that the person's position may be prejudiced for any of those reasons.
Article 4Optional Grounds for RefusalExtradition may be refused under this Treaty in any of the following circumstances:
(a)when the offence for which extradition is sought is regarded under the law of the Requested Party as having been committed in whole or in part within its territory. If extradition is refused solely on this ground, the Requested Party within its territory. If extradition is refused solely on this ground, the Requested Party shall, at the request of the Requesting Party, submit the case to its authorities for prosecution. Where extradition is refused on that ground and subsequently prosecution is not found feasible in the Requested Party for whatever reason, the Requested Party shall so inform the Requested Party. In such circumstances, the Requesting Party may again request the extradition of that person. The Requested Party shall reconsider the request;
(b)when the person sought has been finally acquitted or convicted in a third State for the same offence for which extradition is requested and, if convicted, the sentence imposed has been fully enforced or is no longer enforceable;
(c)when, in exceptional cases, the Requested Party, while also taking into account the seriousness of the offence and the interests of the Requesting Party, deems that the extradition would be incompatible with humanitarian considerations, particularly the age or health of the person sought;
(d)when the offence for which extradition is requested is an offence under military law, which is not also an offence under ordinary criminal law.
Article 5Postponement of ExtraditionWhen the person sought is being proceeded against or is serving a sentence in the Requested Party for an offence other than that for which extradition is requested, the Requested Party may surrender the person sought or postpone surrender until the conclusion of the proceeding or the service of the whole or any part of the sentence imposed. The Requested Party shall inform the Requesting Party of any postponement.Article 6Extradition of Nationals
