Division 5 (Bails and bonds) of Part 6 of the Criminal Procedure Code 2010 applies to an application made under this Act for bail or personal bond or to the release of a fugitive on bail or on his or her own bond under this Act with the following modifications:
fugitive
“fugitive” means a person who is accused of an extradition crime that is alleged to have been committed, or convicted of an extradition crime that was committed at a place within the jurisdiction of a foreign State or a declared Commonwealth country or of a part of such State or country and is, or is suspected to be, in Singapore;
a reference to an accused is a reference to the fugitive;
a reference to an arrest is a reference to the apprehension or taking into custody of a fugitive;
a reference to a conviction is a reference to the committal to prison or custody of a fugitive;
a reference to an acquittal is a reference to the discharge of a fugitive.
If there is any inconsistency between Division 5 of Part 6 of the Criminal Procedure Code 2010 and any provision of this Act, the provision of this Act prevails.
