Art. 62
Parole 1 The offender is released on parole from undergoing an in-patient measure as soon as his condition justifies his being given the liberty to prove himself. 2 In the case of release on parole from a measure under Article 59, the probationary period amounts to one to five years, and in the case of release on parole from a measure under Articles 60 and 61, from one to three years. 3 The person released on parole may be required to undergo out-patient treatment during the probationary period. The executive authority may order probation assistance and issue conduct orders for the duration the probationary period. 4 If on expiry of the probationary period, a continuation of the out-patient treatment, the probation assistance or the conduct orders is considered necessary in order to reduce the risk of further felonies and misdemeanours being committed that are associated with the condition of the person released on parole, the court may at the request of the executive authority extend the probationary period as follows:
5 The probationary period following release on parole from a measure under Articles 60 and 61 may not exceed six years. 6 If the offender has committed an offence in terms of Article 64 paragraph 1, the probationary period may be extended as often as is considered necessary to prevent further such offences being committed. |
