Section 207.   Power to issue summons or warrant for offence committed beyond local jurisdiction.

(1) When a Magistrate of the first class sees reason to believe that any person
within his local jurisdiction has committed outside such jurisdiction (whether within or
outside India) an offence which cannot, under the provisions of sections 197 to 205 (both
inclusive), or any other law for the time being in force, be inquired into or tried within such
jurisdiction but is under some law for the time being in force triable in India, such Magistrate
may inquire into the offence as if it had been committed within such local jurisdiction and
compel such person in the manner hereinbefore provided to appear before him, and send
such person to the Magistrate having jurisdiction to inquire into or try such offence, or, if
such offence is not punishable with death or imprisonment for life and such person is ready
and willing to give bail to the satisfaction of the Magistrate acting under this section, take
a bond with or without sureties for his appearance before the Magistrate having such
jurisdiction.
(2) When there are more Magistrates than one having such jurisdiction and the
Magistrate acting under this section cannot satisfy himself as to the Magistrate to or before
whom such person should be sent or bound to appear, the case shall be reported for the
orders of the High Court.
