Article 155

第百五十五条

The court must, with regard to a witness unable to understand the meaning of an oath, examine said person without the oath.

宣誓の趣旨を理解することができない者は、宣誓をさせないで、これを尋問しなければならない。

Even if the witness prescribed in the preceding paragraph has sworn an oath, the admissibility of said witness's statement as testimony is not denied or its effect lessened.

前項に掲げる者が宣誓をしたときでも、その供述は、証言としての効力を妨げられない。
