Contemporary Issues of The World: Unit 13.2: Implications of Human Rights
This could cause a conflict of rights between the criminal and the public in the deporting country. For
example, if a foreign criminal was granted the right to stay because their lives would be at risk by
returning to their country, but he/she has committed a crime that presented a threat to public safety,
then this decision of state to keep the criminal would compromise the public right to protection of life
and property.
Which right would be given importance depends on the view of human rights prevailing in the state.
