(1) If, when the accused is called upon to plead to the indictment, it appears to be uncertain for any reason whether he or she is capable of understanding the proceedings at the trial so as to be able to make a proper defence, a jury chosen from the panel of jurors shall be empanelled forthwith and shall be sworn to find whether or not he or she is so capable.
(2) Where the jury finds that the accused person is so capable of understanding the proceedings, the trial shall proceed as in other cases.
(3) Where the jury finds that he or she is not capable of understanding the proceedings, the finding shall be recorded and the Court may order the accused to be discharged or may order him or her to be kept in custody in such place and in such manner as the Court thinks fit until he or she can be dealt with according to law.
(4) A person so found to be incapable of understanding the proceedings at the trial, may subsequently be indicted and tried for the offence if he or she is then found capable of understanding the proceedings.
