Part 9 International Cooperation and Judicial Assistance: Coopération Internationale Et Assistance Judiciaire, Art.102 Use of terms/Emploi des termes
Keyword(s):
This chapter comments on Article 102 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. ‘Extradition’ is a concept that raises difficult problems in national legal systems. For example, many States prohibit the extradition of their nationals. Article 102 attempts to address potential difficulties in this area by specifying that transfer of a person by a State to the Court is not ‘extradition’ but rather ‘surrender’. The drafters of the Rome Statute chose to use the term ‘surrender’ to govern the procedure of transfer of a suspect from a State to the Court so as to emphasize the sui generis nature of the process.
