Article 229

Where a witness fails to attend or to produce the document in compliance with the summons, the court shall determine whether the summons has been duly served.

Where the court has reason to believe that the evidence to be given or document to be produced by such witness is material:

if the court is satisfied that the summons has not been duly served, it may order the issue of a fresh summons on such terms as to costs or otherwise as it thinks fit; or

if the court is satisfied that the witness has without good cause failed to comply with such summons or has intentionally avoided service, the court may make such order, including the issue of a warrant with or without bail for the arrest of such person, as it considers necessary for the attendance of such person.
