In any case in which any person released on parole from another state is present in Virginia, if such person is not present in Virginia pursuant to the provisions of Article 4 (§ 53.1-166 et seq.), upon request by the duly constituted judicial or administrative authorities of such other state, the compact administrator of Virginia or his designee shall cause to be conducted a preliminary hearing to determine probable cause for violation of conditions of parole. Such preliminary hearing shall be substantially similar to the hearing provided for in §§ 53.1-168 through 53.1-172.
