Re: Pride cometh....

I'm willing to bet your country prosecutes the same way the USA does.

If a crime is committed by a gang in the UK, but the master mind and recruiter of the crime never left his home country of BangGangAstan... you think this master mind can't be extradited to the UK to charged and tried?

I already know the answer to this... YES HE CAN. Same answer for nearly all western countries.

You can still violate the laws of another country if the victim is in another country. You can also be tried on similar charges in the country you are physically located for the same crime without being protected by double-jeopardy laws.

This is seen a lot involving the crimes with the black market, drugs, etc. ...and more so now with computer crimes.
