Paragraph 33 Taking or production of evidence
This section applies where the Governor receives a request from the ICC for assistance in the taking or production of evidence.
For this purpose “evidence” includes documents and other articles.
The Governor may nominate a court in the Territory to receive the evidence to which the request relates.
For this purpose the nominated court—
has the same powers with respect to securing the attendance of witnesses and the production of documents or other articles as it has for the purpose of other proceedings before the court; and
may take evidence on oath.
A person shall not be compelled to give evidence or produce anything in proceedings under this section that he could not be compelled to give or produce in criminal proceedings in the Territory.
If in order to comply with the request it is necessary for the evidence by the court to be verified in any manner, the notice nominating the court shall specify the nature of the verification required.
No order for costs shall be made in proceedings under this section.
