Persons subject to warrants may be apprehended
82 Persons subject to warrants may be apprehended
Subject to subsection (2), the person named in a warrant issued in a State may be apprehended in another State.
This section does not apply in relation to a person who is in prison.
The person may be apprehended by:
an officer of the police force of the State in which the person is found; or
the Sheriff of that State, or any of the Sheriff’s officers; or
a member or special member of the Australian Federal Police.
It is not necessary to produce the warrant when the person is apprehended.
Even though a person has been released under subsection 83(3), (4) or (7), the person may be re‑apprehended under the same warrant.
The warrant or a copy of the warrant must be produced when the person is re‑apprehended.
