Journal Title: Альманах міжнародного права - Year 2018, Vol 19, Issue
Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the issue of the possibility of refugees’ extradition, with the analysis of the legal and regulatory framework of an international legal nature and national criminal procedural legislation and legislation, which regulates the status of refugees and persons who require temporary or additional protection. The emphasis is on the possibility of applying criminal procedural compulsion and the moment it is applied. There are examples of the European Court’s practice in Human Rights and it’s offered to the requested State to investigate actively the circumstances, referred by the person who has acquired or is in the process of obtaining refugee status, which led to the need of seeking the asylum in the Requested State. If, in the requesting State, there is some danger because of the person who is going to obtain the refugee status, the requested State should refrain from extradition, since the achievement of the objectives of criminal proceedings must be carried out within a reasonable balance with respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, fixed by the 1950 Convention. It should be noted that today there is a certain legal and regulatory framework in Ukraine that allows solving the problems of criminal proceedings, taking into consideration and respecting human rights, in particular, it concerns persons who wish to obtain refugee status and those who need additional or temporary protection. Certain restrictions on the issuance of such persons also are applied in criminal procedure law.
