India and Indonesia have signed a pact for repatriation of wanted prisoners and cooperate in all criminal matters, including gathering evidence. In this regard Union Ministry of Home Affairs has issued an official gazette notification for service or execution of summons or warrant in relation to criminal matters in both countries. Under the agreement India will execute summons to an accused person (or any person) requiring to produce documents and attend or a search-warrant issued by an Indonesian court. Indonesia will reciprocate with similar action to execute summons if there is any request from any Indian court. Such summons or warrant would be sent to its Internal Security Division-II for transmission to the central authority i.e. the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of Indonesia.
