CONNENTIAL

A lugitive offender shall not be surrendered if the

requested Party considers that the offence of which that person is accused or was convicted is an offence of a political

character.

(4)

A fugitive offender shall not be surrendered if the

requested Party has substantial grounds for believing:

(a) that the request for his return (though purporting

to be made on account of an offence for which Jullemmel may be granted) is in fact made for the purpose of prosecuting or punishing him on account

of his race, religion, nationality or political opinions;

ОГ

(b) that he might, if returned, be prejudiced at his

trial or punished, detained or restricted in his personal liberty by reason of his race, religion, nationality or political opinions.
