Temat: Crime and punishment

Aren't we taking it too far, offering shelter to those who use our laws against us?
Who flee from prosecution to a liberal and pluralistic country?

Dozens of suspected war criminals are living in the UK with "impunity" because legal loopholes mean we cannot prosecute or deport them, anti-genocide campaigners have warned.


And how does this stand against the news here:

Britain has one of the worst track records in hunting down and prosecuting suspected Nazi war criminals, according to a report by the Simon Wiesenthal Centre.

Temat: Crime and punishment

It's a problem not only in the UK, due to loopholes but mainly to the lex retro non agit rule. Nothing will change in the nearest future. Lawyers keep working on the implementation of new laws but there's always the issue of human rights, which sometimes protect the criminals to a higher extent than the victims.

It's also connected with the liability of states under international law, which might be a real financial burden, so the states are not so much interested in solving the problem.
