Judgment_paragraph 51 · OE v Minister for Justice and Equality (C-142/22)

51Lastly, the interpretation of Article 27 of Framework Decision 2002/584, as set out in paragraph 45 of the present judgment, is such as to promote the attainment of the objective of combating impunity, which is also pursued by that framework decision (see, to that effect, judgment of 31 January 2023, Puig Gordi and Others, C‑158/21, EU:C:2023:57, paragraph 141). Accepting that an executing judicial authority may refuse to give the consent requested of it pursuant to Article 27(3)(g) and Article 27(4) of that framework decision on grounds unrelated to those provided for in paragraph 4 would undermine that objective by preventing the judicial authorities of the issuing Member State from prosecuting, sentencing or otherwise depriving a person of his or her liberty for an offence committed prior to his or her surrender other than that for which he or she was surrendered.
