In any extended period of repentance under subsection (I), the officer in charge of place of detention shall as soon as possible furnish a report to the Syariah Court whether the offender is desirous to repent or not and bring the offender before the Syariah Court.
When the Syariah Court receives the report under subsection (2)
and the offender is brought before it, if -
the offender is desirous to repent, the Syariah Court shall act according to section 204; or
the offender refuses to repent after the expiration of the extended period under subsection (I), the Syariah Court shall order the offender to be further detained for such period as the Syariah
Court thinks reasonable.
