The role and importance of extradition in the search and judgment of transmitted criminals

Abstract

One of the most important forms of cooperation used by states in the fight against transnational crime is the extradition of criminals. The extradition of offenders is the restoration of social justice in society, the acquisition of a deserved punishment, regardless of the whereabouts of the perpetrator, as well as the implementation of state functions aimed at the execution of the sentence imposed on him. On the other hand, the main purpose of extradition should not result in human rights violations, nor should it restrict people's right to life, liberty, and a fair trial. These criteria are enshrined in the 2000 UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime. Key words: transnational crimes, mutual legal assistance, Criminal Code, Criminal Procedure Code, state sovereignty, responsibility of legal entities, international law, international criminal law, criminal jurisdiction
