(1) If a Court in India, in relation to a criminal matter, desires that a warrant for the arrest of any person to attend or produce a document or other thing issued by it be executed in a contracting State, the Court shall send such warrant in duplicate, in the prescribed form, to the appropriate Court, Judge, or Magistrate in the contracting State, through the authority specified by the Central Government via notification. The designated Court, Judge, or Magistrate shall then cause the warrant to be executed.
(2) Notwithstanding anything in this Code, if, during the investigation or inquiry into an offence, the investigating officer or a superior officer submits an application stating that the attendance of a person who is in a contracting State is required for the investigation or inquiry, and the Court is satisfied that such attendance is necessary, the Court shall issue a summons or warrant in duplicate to the Court, Judge, or Magistrate of the contracting State, in the form prescribed by the Central Government via notification, to have it served or executed.
(3) Where a Court in India, in relation to a criminal matter, receives a warrant for the arrest of a person requiring them to attend or to attend and produce a document or other thing in that Court or before any other investigating agency, and the warrant is issued by a Court, Judge, or Magistrate in a contracting State, such warrant shall be executed in India as if it were issued by a Court within India for execution within its local jurisdiction.

(5) If a person is transferred to India under Sub-section (1) or (2) and is a prisoner in a contracting State, the Court in India shall ensure compliance with the conditions under which the prisoner was transferred.
