CRIMINAL LAW

International criminal law is a relatively new body of law. International criminal law is a subset of public international law. While international law typically concerns inter-state relations, international criminal law concerns individuals. In particular, international criminal law places responsibility on individual persons—not states or organisations—and proscribes and punishes acts that are defined as crimes by international law.

international criminal law, body of laws, norms, and rules governing international crimes and their repression, as well as rules addressing conflict and cooperation between national criminal-law systems.

international law-conflict of laws.Criminal law prohibits and punishes behaviour judged to be antisocial. Because each country’s laws are a reflection of its values, there are often large differences between the national laws of different countries, both with respect to the nature of the crimes themselves and the penalties considered appropriate. The term international criminal law refers variously to at least three distinct areas: 1. cooperation between different national legal systems through extradition and other forms of mutual legal assistance; 2. the prohibition and punishment of certain behaviour by several countries acting collectively or by the international community as a whole; 3. the operation of autonomous international legal systems, including courts and other mechanisms of enforcement, that exist alongside national criminal law.

Money laundaring

The elements of the crime of money laundering are set forth in the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Convention against Transnational Organized Crime. It is knowingly engaging in a financial transaction with the proceeds of a crime for the purpose of concealing or disguising the illicit origin of the property.

DRUG TRAFFICKING

Addictive drugs were first prohibited in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. An Illegal Drug Trade emerged during the 19th century; China retaliated with imports of opium, and two Opium Wars broke out. In the First Opium Wars, the Chinese authorities had banned opium, but the United Kingdom forced China to allow British merchants to trade opium with the general population. Smoking opium had become common in the 19th century, and British merchants increased their trade with the Chinese.

Hijacking

Hijacking is a type of network security attack in which the attacker takes control of a communication - just as an airplane hijacker takes control of a flight - between two entities and masquerades as one of them. In one type of hijacking the perpetrator takes control of an established connection while it is in progress.
