Alleged Contract Killing from Sa Torre to Cologne: What the Extradition of a Resident Really Means

Answer

What does extradition from Mallorca to Germany mean in a criminal case?

Extradition means that a person is handed over from one country to another so the case can be investigated or tried there. In Mallorca, this can happen when the alleged main acts took place partly or mainly in Germany, as in the Sa Torre case involving Cologne. The decision depends on legal jurisdiction and on whether the receiving country has a valid basis to continue the proceedings.
