According to this principle, the (initial) requesting state (in this case Sweden) is allowed to prosecute the extradited merely on the grounds of the offenses referred to in the request (i.e., the alleged sexual offenses). The delivery of the alleged criminal offender to a third state further requires the consent of the (initial) requested state (Great Britain). Of course, the requested state can only consent if the extradition does not conflict with any of the obstacles mentioned above.

With respect to the granting of “diplomatic asylum”, the phone number library that this kind of asylum – despite repeated occurrence of such escapes to embassies – is not acknowledged in international law. Already in 1950, on the occasion of the escape of the Peruvian politician Raúl Haya de la Torre to the Columbian embassy in Lima, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) held that such kind of asylum can only be recognized if founded on explicit legal terms (see Haya de la Torre Case [Colombia /Peru].

Judgment of 13 June 1951). This results from the fact that granting diplomatic asylum constitutes interference in the territorial state’s internal affairs. For the sending state granting asylum would, as a consequence, deprive the receiving state jurisdiction over the fugitive. This essentially distinguishes diplomatic asylum from conventional asylum that is granted by a state to persons situated on its own territory.
