== International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights == The 72 [[Signature|signatories]] and 166 parties to the [[International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights]] recognise, under Article 14 (7): "No one shall be liable to be tried or punished again for an offence for which he has already been finally [[convicted]] or [[acquitted]] in accordance with the law and penal procedure of each country." However, it does not apply to prosecutions by two different sovereigns (unless the relevant extradition treaty expresses a prohibition).
