If it appears to the
Central Government that by reason of the trivial nature of the case or by reason of the application for
the surrender or return of a fugitive criminal not being made in good faith or in the interests of justice
or for political reasons or otherwise, it is unjust or inexpedient to surrender or return the fugitive
criminal, it may, by order, at any time stay any proceedings under this Act and direct any warrant
issued or endorsed under this Act to be cancelled and the person for whose arrest the warrant has been
issued or endorsed to be discharged.
