Abstract

There are some misunderstands about the universal jurisdiction. In fact, the principle of universal jurisdiction is applied both to the international crimes and national crimes. It is pragmatic that a nation exercises the jurisdiction over a suspect when he /she presences in the territory or is captured, but international law does not prescribe this limit The jurisdiction of international criminal organs does not come under universal jurisdiction, but comes from the authorization of treaties or agreements.
