Extradition

/ˌɛk.strəˈdɪʃ.ən/noun
ELI5 mode

Extradition is the official process by which one government surrenders a person accused or convicted of a crime to another jurisdiction for legal proceedings. This mechanism is governed by treaties and laws to prevent fugitives from escaping justice across borders, but it often sparks debates over human rights, political asylum, and international relations in an interconnected world.
