Art. 74 Organisation ban

1 The Fed­er­al Coun­cil may ban an or­gan­isa­tion or group that dir­ectly or in­dir­ectly propag­ates, sup­ports or oth­er­wise pro­motes ter­ror­ist or vi­ol­ent-ex­trem­ist activ­it­ies and thus poses a spe­cif­ic threat to in­tern­al or ex­tern­al se­cur­ity.

2 A ban shall be based on a United Na­tions res­ol­u­tion on a ban or on sanc­tions; the Fed­er­al Coun­cil shall con­sult the com­mit­tees re­spons­ible for se­cur­ity policy.31

3 A ban may be im­posed for a max­im­um of five years. If the re­quire­ments are still met on ex­piry of this peri­od, the ban may be ex­ten­ded for a max­im­um of five fur­ther years.

4 Any per­son who on Swiss ter­rit­ory par­ti­cip­ates in an or­gan­isa­tion or group banned un­der para­graph 1, sup­ports it by provid­ing hu­man or oth­er re­sources, or­gan­ises pro­pa­ganda cam­paigns for its aims, re­cruits for it or in any oth­er way pro­motes its activ­it­ies shall, be li­able to a cus­todi­al sen­tence not ex­ceed­ing five years or to a mon­et­ary pen­alty.32

4bis The court may re­duce the pen­alty in ac­cord­ance with para­graph 4 (Art. 48aSCC33) if the of­fend­er makes an ef­fort to foil the fur­ther activ­it­ies of the or­gan­isa­tion or group.34

5 It is an of­fence for any per­son to com­mit the fore­go­ing of­fence out­side Switzer­land if that per­son is ar­res­ted in Switzer­land and not ex­tra­dited. Art­icle 7 para­graphs 4 and 5 SCC35 ap­plies.

6 The pro­sec­u­tion and ad­ju­dic­a­tion of acts un­der para­graphs 4 and 5 are sub­ject to fed­er­al jur­is­dic­tion.36

7 The re­spons­ible au­thor­it­ies shall no­ti­fy the FIS of any judg­ments, pen­alty or­ders and de­cisions to dis­miss pro­ceed­ings im­me­di­ately and free of charge, provid­ing cop­ies of all re­lated doc­u­ments.37
