The committal order was lawful because the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance requires production and authentication only of the defined supporting documents (not the Request for Surrender), the supporting documents were duly authenticated under s23 and admissible, the Request was received within the 60-day period, and issues such as potential death penalty are matters for the Chief Executive under s13(5); accordingly the 2nd application for habeas corpus was dismissed.
