第四十三条   如果暂缓引渡可能给请求国的刑事诉讼造成严重障碍，在不妨碍中华人民共和国领域内正在进行的刑事诉讼，并且请求国保证在完成有关诉讼程序后立即无条件送回被请求引渡人的情况下，可以根据请求国的请求，临时引渡该人。

Article 43 If postponed extradition may seriously impede the criminal proceedings in the Requesting State, the person sought may be extradited temporarily upon the request of the Requesting State on condition that the criminal proceedings being conducted in the territory of the People's Republic of China are not hindered and the Requesting State undertakes to send back that person unconditionally and immediately after concluding the relevant proceedings.
