Abstract
In international law and sociology, the crime of deportation and extradition of criminals is governed by principles and rules that have been accepted all over the world, and the expulsion and extradition of criminals have been a long-standing issue in international law. The European Court of Human Rights, as a judicial body of the European Convention on Human Rights, has ruled in favor of some of these conflicts of opinion. Accordingly, in the present paper, the impact of human rights enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights on the issue of deportation and extradition of offenders has been examined in the proceedings of the member states of this convention with regard to the rulings of the Court of Human Rights. Although all deterrent measures, however, are taken against perpetrators to prevent them from fleeing to other countries and prosecuting them, in many cases, criminals flee the country in which they committed the crime in various ways after committing the crime and before it was discovered.
