väljaandmisprotsess

väljaandmisprotsess refers to the process of extradition. It is a formal legal procedure by which one jurisdiction (the requested state) transfers a person accused or convicted of a crime in another jurisdiction (the requesting state) to that requesting state so that they can face trial or serve their sentence. This process is governed by international treaties and domestic laws.

The extradition process typically begins with a formal request from the requesting state to the requested state. This request usually includes detailed information about the alleged crime, the identity of the person sought, and evidence supporting the request. The requested state then reviews the request to ensure it meets the legal requirements for extradition, such as the existence of a valid extradition treaty between the two countries and that the offense is a criminal offense in both jurisdictions.

If the request is deemed valid, the requested state may initiate legal proceedings to detain the individual. The person sought has the right to legal representation and may challenge the extradition through the courts. A judge or court in the requested state will then determine if the legal requirements for extradition have been met. If the court approves the extradition, the individual is handed over to the authorities of the requesting state. The entire process aims to ensure that individuals accused of crimes are brought to justice while respecting the legal rights of the individual and the sovereignty of the states involved.
