consolidated text (as at 2003). juris shows the text as it was consolidated; it does not confirm that this is the law in force today.
12. Termination of sentence
(1) Where an offender is serving a sentence in Mauritius consequent
upon his transfer thereto under this Act, and the Minister is satisfied that the
designated country from which he has been transferred has exercised the
power of pardon or any other power which renders the sentence no longer
enforceable in that country, or that the sentence has been completed, the offender shall no longer be subject to detention by reason only of that sentence.
(2) Where a foreign offender is serving a sentence in a designated country consequent upon his transfer from Mauritius under this Act, and the
power of pardon or any other power which renders the sentence no longer
enforceable in Mauritius has been exercised, or the sentence has been completed, the Minister shall forthwith inform the designated country to which
the foreign offender was transferred that he is no longer subject to detention
by reason only of that sentence.
