Summary/Abstract: This paper addresses two problems of the international judicial cooperation with Somalia, one of the countries in East Africa. They are related to the Constitution of Somalia and the Constitution of Somaliland. The first problem concerns the passive (the export) extradition. It derives from the outdated understanding of the extradition proceedings in Somalia and the discrepancy between the two Constitutions on this issue. The second problem concerns the pardon of prisoners, transferred to Somaliland to suffer the unapplied part of their punishment imposed in the transferring country. The problem derives from the inappropriate understanding of the contents and the legal force of the international agreements, governing the transfer of prisoners.
