PoliticsUlaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ Head of Cabinet Secretariat S.Bayartsogt MP submitted to the Speaker Z.Enkhbold a bill on ratifying the Convention on Transfers of Sentenced Persons of the European Commission, on October 20.
S.Bayartsogt noted that it is time that Mongolia focuses on concluding agreements and on joining related conventions on the transfer of convicts and on legal assistances to those Mongolian nationals who have become subjects to criminal activities abroad, as a number of the Mongolians to study and work overseas increases, he said.
Bilateral agreements on the same issue have been signed with South Korea, China, Canada, Russia, Poland, Turkey and Cuba. Mongolia is also a subject to the 1978 Berlin Convention on Transfers of Sentenced Persons, which is currently effective.
