Service of a citation by the prosecution or defence on a witness in any proceedings may, in the first instance, be by post.

Where citation of a witness has been attempted by post but has not been effected, or the witness has not returned Form 8.2-D or Form 16.6-B, as the case may be, within the period prescribed in rule 8.2(3) or 16.6(1), as the case may be, citation of that witness shall be effected by an officer of law delivering the document to the witness personally.
