Official textFrom Attorney General's Chambers, unchanged
When it is proved to the satisfaction of the Syariah Court by which a bond under this Code has been executed or, when the bond is for appearance before a Syariah Court. when it is proved to the satisfaction of such Syariah Court that such bond has been forfeited, the Syariah Court shall record the grounds of such proof and may call upon any person bound by such bond to pay the penalty thereof or to show cause why it should not be paid.
If sufficient cause is not shown and the penalty is not paid, the
Syariah Court may proceed to recover the same by issuing a warrant for the attachment and sale of the property belonging to such person.
If such penalty is not paid and cannot be recovered by such attachment and sale, the person so bound shall be liable, by order of the
Syariah Court which issued the warrant, to imprisonment for a term which may extend to 6 months.
The Syariah Court may, in its discretion, remit any portion of the penalty mentioned and enforce payment in part only.
