Abstract
Main description
(01)
|
Terrorist acts have been a worrisome phenomenon for all nations. Paradoxically, although states have been conscious about
the danger of this phenomenon, there is no definition of terrorist acts so far. States have been skeptical and they have not
agreed that the judgment of these criminal offences be performed by international jurisdictions, thus opting for the domestic
jurisdiction. Nevertheless, states have lacked the willingness to establish joint criminal policies and find efficacious means
to combat these terrorist acts. One of these efficacious means has been the seizure and confiscation of licit and illicit
assets possessed by terrorist groups. This is the focus of this short study, which will be inclusive by viewing this topic
under the general framework of international acts, our domestic legislation, as well as the American one. This paper aims
at presenting the legislative measures taken by the Albanian state to meet international requirements. It endeavors to provide
arguments why all licit and illicit assets associated with terrorist acts are seized and confiscated. Special attention is
paid to the way these assets are administered. Moreover, this study tries to analyze the achievements and problems in Albania,
as well as provide conclusions and recommendations.
