Extraditable Offences. 1. Extradition shall be granted only when the act for which the extradition is requested constitutes an offence under the laws of both Parties and meets one of the following conditions: (a) where the request for extradition is aimed at conducting a criminal proceeding, the offence is punishable under the laws of both Parties by the penalty of imprisonment for a period of more than one year; or (b) where the request for extradition is aimed at executing a sentence imposed, a period of sentence that remains to be served by the person sought is at least six months at the time when the request for extradition is made. 2.
