مدى تأثر الولاية القضائية العالمية بالحصانة

Abstract EN

Although diplomatic representatives enjoy personal, judicial and financial immunity as representatives of the interests of their respective States, their persons are protected and cannot be violated.

And the same applies to the heads of states and military leaders, but this immunity should not be used in the implementation of criminal acts and should not be a way of impunity, the official character of the person should not exempt him in any way from criminal responsibility‚ In view of this immunity, universal jurisdiction is a mechanism for combating violations and serious crimes.

Immunity prevents action against a particular person in respect of an act which is a crime derived from domestic law and international law.

In order to determine the impact of immunity on the application of universal jurisdiction, we must demonstrate the concept of both diplomatic immunity and sovereign immunity and thus the extent to which universal jurisdiction is affected
