(725 ILCS 225/12) (from Ch. 60, par. 29)
Sec. 12.
Confinement
in jail when necessary.
The officer or persons executing the Governor's warrant of arrest, or
the agent of the demanding state to whom the prisoner may have been
delivered may, when necessary, confine the prisoner in the jail of any
county or city through which he may pass; and the keeper of such jail must
receive and safely keep the prisoner until the officer or person having
charge of him is ready to proceed on his route, such officer or person
being chargeable with the expense of keeping.
The officer or agent of a demanding state to whom a prisoner may have
been delivered following extradition proceedings in another state, or to
whom a prisoner may have been delivered after waiving extradition in such
other state, and who is passing through this state with such a prisoner for
the purpose of immediately returning such prisoner to the demanding state
may, when necessary, confine the prisoner in the jail of any county or city
through which he may pass; and the keeper of such jail must receive and
safely keep the prisoner until the officer or agent having charge of him is
ready to proceed on his route, such officer or agent, however, being
chargeable with the expense of keeping; provided, however, that such
officer or agent shall produce and show to the keeper of such jail
satisfactory written evidence of the fact that he is actually transporting
such prisoner to the demanding state after a requisition by the Executive
Authority of such demanding state. Such prisoner shall not be entitled to
demand a new requisition while in this State.
