THE CRIMINAL EXTRADITION SYSTEM AS A MECHANISM IN INTERNATIONAL LAW

Main Article Content

AMRAOUI KHADIDJA

Abstract

     The criminal extradition system is considered one of the best manifestations of solidarity among nations, a fact that has become evident to all. The United Nations emphasized this after World War II, as numerous international conferences were held successively to discuss various means of combating criminals. Therefore, international cooperation has become an absolute necessity imposed by current reality and necessitated by the increase in criminal activities between different countries of the world.


     Perhaps the reason for this is due to the nature of the extradition system and its direct effect in achieving the greatest degree of effectiveness. This is represented in the possibility of deporting the wanted person to the requesting state to enable it to prosecute or execute the criminal penalty issued against them. Extradition is an explicit expression of countries' desire to achieve this cooperation, especially in light of the continuous increase in violent crimes and terrorist offenses.
