时效是按照可对有关犯罪施行监禁的时间长短决定的。按照《刑法》第 102 条,如果对犯罪人员提起刑事诉讼,可以延长时效期。审议小组认为,时效期 足以允许实行适当的司法行政。
The period of limitation is determined by the length of imprisonment which can be imposed for the offence in question. Pursuant to article 102 PC, the period of limitation is prolonged in case of criminal proceedings instituted against the offender. The review team found the statute of limitations periods adequate enough to serve the purposes of the proper administration of justice.
