What is extradition?



Extradition means the delivery up of a person who has committed a crime in one country by the authorities of another country in which he has taken refuge, to the authorities of the country where the crime was committed. Extradition proceedings cannot be taken against the criminal unless an extradition treaty has been concluded with the foreign state concerned. 

*In Tanzania extradition is governed by the Extradition Act, 1965
