Summary
When a crime is committed in another country, the jurisdiction depends on factors like territorial jurisdiction, nationality principle, and extradition treaties. For crimes in the uk by an australian resident, the uk has jurisdiction, and extradition is possible due to treaties. Cybercrimes involve jurisdiction where effects are felt, with international cooperation playing a key role. Extradition requires crimes to meet seriousness criteria, often defined by penalties. For crime statistics, refer to official sources like the office for national statistics in england.Full Conversation
Im doing research for a paper and i need to know about what jurisdiction a crime commited in another country has on the country of residence
When a crime is committed in another country, the jurisdiction often depends on several factors:
- Territorial Jurisdiction: Generally, the country where the crime occurred has primary jurisdiction.
- Nationality Principle: Some countries can prosecute their citizens for crimes committed abroad.
- Extradition Treaties: Countries may have agreements to extradite individuals for prosecution.
- Dual Criminality: The act must be a crime in both countries for extradition.

So what about if a crime occurs in the uk but the person who committed it lives in australia
In your scenario, several legal principles come into play:
- Territorial Jurisdiction: The UK has jurisdiction as the crime occurred there.
- Extradition: The UK and Australia have an extradition treaty, so the UK can request extradition.
- Dual Criminality: The act must be a crime in both the UK and Australia for extradition to proceed.

Do crimes have to be of a certain degree for countries to extradite you?
Case Rating: *
Extradition often requires that the crime be of a certain seriousness, typically defined by the penalty, such as imprisonment for a specific duration. The exact requirements depend on the extradition treaty between the countries involved. For more detailed information, you might want to look at specific treaties or legal provisions.
Do you have stats on certain crimes?
Case Rating: *
I don't have direct access to crime statistics, but you can find detailed information on crime statistics in England through official sources like the Office for National Statistics (ONS) or the UK government's crime website. These sources provide comprehensive data on different types of crimes and their prevalence.
