INTERNATIONAL PROCEDURAL OBSTACLES IN COMBATING CYBERCRIME
Main Article Content
Abstract
Cybercrime is regarded as one of the most important crimes affecting the international community due to its cross-border nature, facilitated by technological advancements and the rapid, widespread use of the internet. As a result, individual states have become unable to fight it effectively on their own, even when possessing sufficient material and human resources. This has necessitated integration into an international framework, reflected in the adoption of several regional and international agreements. However, the effective implementation of these agreements faces several international procedural challenges, most notably jurisdictional conflicts and difficulties in executing letters rogatory, including judicial requests and extradition procedures.
