إشكالية الاختصاص في الجرائم الإلكترونية

Abstract EN

Since cybercrime has recently become widespread, the need for necessary legislations to combat it has become an imperative issue.

Cybercrimes are crossborder crimes committed in the cyberspace and this is the first obstacle that faces the judicial bodies.

However, perpetrators exploit it to avoid punishment.

Legislators in the State of Qatar, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and England have enacted contemporary legislations to ensure the punishment of cybercriminals.

Such legislations still require further amendments and revisions.

This study makes a comparison between these legislations, analyzes their respective positions with regard to the jurisdiction in cybercrime, and provides appropriate recommendations at the national and international levels.

Finally, this study found that the existence of an international tribunal for cybercrime has become an urgent necessity to maintain the security of the international community.

In addition, it proposes the structure of this tribunal.
