WHEREAS section 39(1) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli has the freedom to not fear for life or limb;
WHEREAS section 44(1) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli has the freedom of liberty and security of the person, except when deprived by the principles of reasonable justice;
WHEREAS section 44(3) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli is free from being arbitrarily detained or imprisoned, except for in times of imminent war, invasion, or insurrection, and only for protection of the person;
WHEREAS section 45(1) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli, upon arrest or detention, shall be promptly informed of the reason for their arrest or detention;
WHEREAS section 45(3) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli, upon arrest or detention, shall have the validity of the detention determined by way of habeas corpus and be released if the detention is not lawful;
WHEREAS section 46(1) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli charged with an offence shall be informed of the offence without delay;
WHEREAS section 46(2) of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli charged with an offence shall be tried within a reasonable time;
WHEREAS section 47 of the Constitution Act, 1955 guarantees that any person within the jurisdiction of Ibagli shall not be subjected to any cruel and unusual treatment or punishment;
WHEREAS certain states that may in theory recognise such basic principles do transport certain persons who they suspect have committed crimes against the state to such states that do not recognise the basic rights and principles guaranteed in Ibagli;
AND WHEREAS it is expedient that such states be forever forbidden and excluded from using Ibagli to commit their acts of hostility to the person;
Now, Therefore, The QUEEN, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate and the Commons in this present Parliament assembled, enacts as follows:
1. No aircraft or maritime vessel of an organisation that is known to commit the practice of extraordinary rendition shall be permitted to enter Ibaglian airspace or waters, or dock or land in Ibagli.
2. For greater certainty, extraordinary rendition shall be taken to mean the transportation of persons beyond the seas of their home state, the state their alleged crime took place in, or any other state that they are a citizen of for the sole purpose of imprisonment or interrogation.
3. Section 1 shall be construed to apply to transport craft owned by the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States of America until such time as the Governor-in-Council sees fit to remove such restrictions.
4. Section 3 shall be construed to apply to transport craft owned by any group, company, or organisation owned wholly or in part, or controlled wholly or in part by the said Central Intelligence Agency of the United States of America.
