EXTRADITING Meaning and
Definition
-
Extraditing is a verb that represents the legal process of transferring an individual from one jurisdiction to another, typically from one country to another, in order to face trial or punishment for an alleged crime committed in the requesting state. It involves the capturing and surrendering of a criminal suspect from the country where they have taken refuge, to the nation seeking their return to face charges or complete a sentence.
The act of extraditing is usually based on an existing extradition treaty or agreement between countries, which outlines the specific legal and diplomatic procedures to be followed when requesting or granting extradition. The key objective is to ensure that criminals cannot escape justice by seeking asylum in a foreign territory.
This complex procedure typically involves a formal request by the requesting country to the country where the suspect is located. The request is usually supported by evidence and legal paperwork, which establishes the criminal charges or conviction. The receiving state then evaluates the request, determines its legitimacy based on the existing extradition treaty, and decides whether to comply. If approved, the extradition process is initiated, which may include the arrest, detention, and transportation of the suspect to the requesting country.
Extraditing is a fundamental tool in the global fight against crime, reinforcing the principle of international cooperation by allowing nations to assist each other in bringing criminals to justice and maintaining law and order across borders.
