Section 9
of Offenders (Probation and Community Service) Act
Section 9
(1)
If it appears to a court that a probationer or an offender against whom an order of conditional discharge has been made has been convicted by any court of an offence committed during the probation period or during the period of conditional discharge (as the case may be), the court by which the probation order or the order of conditional discharge was made may summon that probationer or offender to appear before it or may issue a warrant for his arrest.
(2)
If a probationer, or an offender against whom an order of conditional discharge has been made by the High Court or an Intermediate
Court, is convicted and dealt with by a Court of a Magistrate in respect of an offence committed during the probation period or during the period of conditional discharge, the Court of a Magistrate may commit him to custody or release him on bail (with or without sureties) until he appears or can be brought before the court by which the probation order or the order of conditional discharge was made; and if it does so the Court of a Magistrate shall send to that court a copy of the minute of the conviction entered in the register, signed by the magistrate.
(3)
Where it has been proved to a court by which a probation order or an order of conditional discharge was made that the offender has been convicted and dealt with in respect of the offence committed during the probation period or during the period of conditional discharge, as the case may be, that court may deal with him for the offence in respect of which the probation order or order of conditional discharge was made in any manner in which he could have been dealt with as if he had just been convicted before it of that offence.
(4)
If a probationer or an offender against whom an order of conditional discharge has been made by a Court of a Magistrate is convicted before any court in respect of an offence committed during the probation period or during the period of conditional discharge, such court may deal with him for the offence in respect of which the order was made in any manner in which the Court of a Magistrate by which the order was made could have dealt with him as if he had just been convicted before it of that offence.
