In case of a skyjacking, which treaty allows various jurisdictions to prosecute the offender?

  1. Bonn Agreement 1978

  2. Hague Convention 1970

  3. Montreal Convention 1973

  4. Tokyo Convention 1963

The correct answer is: Hague Convention 1970

The Hague Convention of 1970, also known as the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft, is the international treaty that specifically addresses the issue of skyjacking. It allows for cooperation between different countries in prosecuting the offender, and requires that countries either extradite the offender or prosecute them themselves. While the other options may have some relevance to air travel and crime, they do not specifically pertain to the act of skyjacking and do not outline procedures for handling such cases. Therefore, they are incorrect options for this question.
