Country: Madagascar jenny m. per 0 Extradition is the formal process by which an individual is transferred from one state or country to another country to face prosecution, or if already convicted, to serve a sentence. A state or country makes an extradition demand in order to put the accused on trail with in its jurisdiction. Extradition from one state to another takes place on the order of the governor of the asylum state. The courts in the asylum state have limited function in extraditing the accused to the state where he or she is being accused. The courts determine only whether the extradition documents are in order. Extradition between nations is based on a treaty between the country that is accusing the fugitive and the country that wants the accused to have a trial for an alleged crime. Our government is committed to justice, and that justice applies to everyone, regarding of the position. Madagascar has indeed been through a situation where we had to decide whether extradition was the answer. We feel that extradition is a delicate matter and should be handled with caution. We do like to have our citizens to have trial in our country. The UN has developed many organizations and one of those is NATO, North Atlantic Treaty Organization. NATO is an alliance of twenty-six countries from North America to Europe. The treaty was signed on April 4th 1949. The fundamental role of NATO is to preserve the freedom and security of its members countries by political and military means. NATO’s military structure is a multinational force planning, organization and command system. It is under the control of NATO’s strategic commanders. Since 1980, the international extradition has been considered by the law enforcement to be too time-consuming, expensive, and complicated. It has also been viewed as inefficient because it fails to bring fugitives to justice. As a result, some countries have turned to abduction to return the fugitive to a nation to be tried. We do not believe that abduction is the best solution because it can cause many problems between the countries. It might be a better way to have the accused tried in the country where the crime was committed but have the accused country's representatives present to determine if the punishment was reasonable or vice versa. Another solution is to have the accused's country decided whether extradition is reasonable or is it just exaggerating. The accused might have deserved the punishment.
