The crime for which extradition is claimed should be a crime in the country extraditing and also in the country claiming extradition. This principle is known as....................
Answer: C
The principle is the rule of double criminality.
Extradition is granted only for conduct that is an offence under the laws of both the requesting and the requested state; this is also called dual criminality. India's Extradition Act, 1962 builds it into the definition of an extradition offence.
The rule of speciality is different: an extradited person may be tried only for the offence for which extradition was granted. Double jeopardy forbids trying a person twice for the same offence. 'Rule of criminality' is not the name of the principle.
