s 26 Endorsement of warrant issued in Brunei Darussalam or Singapore
Where, under the provisions of any law in force in Brunei Darussalam or the Republic of Singapore, a judicial authority has issued a warrant authorizing the arrest of a person accused or convicted of an offence and that person is or is believed to be in Malaysia, a Magistrate in Malaysia may, if satisfied that the warrant was duly issued in Brunei Darussalam or Singapore, endorse the warrant, and the warrant may then be executed on that person as if it were a warrant lawfully issued in Malaysia under the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code [Act 593].

Pengendorsan waran yang dikeluarkan di Brunei Darussalam atau Singapura
Jika di bawah peruntukan mana-mana undang-undang yang berkuat kuasa di Brunei Darussalam atau Republik Singapura, suatu pihak berkuasa kehakiman telah mengeluarkan waran yang memberi kuasa penangkapan seseorang yang dituduh atau disabitkan atas suatu kesalahan dan orang itu berada atau dipercayai berada di Malaysia,
seseorang Majistret di Malaysia boleh, jika dia berpuas hati bahawa waran itu telah dikeluarkan dengan sewajarnya di Brunei Darussalam atau Republik Singapura, mengendorskan waran itu, dan waran itu kemudiannya boleh dilaksanakan ke atas orang itu seolah-olah ia waran yang dikeluarkan dengan sah di Malaysia di bawah peruntukan Kanun Tatacara Jenayah.
