Abstract

This paper delves into the intricate challenge of striking a delicate balance between national security imperatives and the protection of individual liberties in the context of contemporary counterterrorism laws. In the aftermath of global terrorist threats, governments worldwide have enacted a myriad of legislative measures aimed at preventing and combating acts of terrorism. However, the implementation of these measures often raises concerns about potential encroachments on civil liberties, privacy rights, and due process. The study critically examines the evolving landscape of counterterrorism laws, analyzing key legal frameworks and their impact on individual freedoms. It scrutinizes the delicate equilibrium required to effectively address security threats without sacrificing the fundamental rights and values that underpin democratic societies. Drawing on case studies from diverse jurisdictions, the research explores the implications of counterterrorism measures on marginalized communities, surveillance practices, and the rule of law. Furthermore, the paper assesses the effectiveness of oversight mechanisms and judicial review processes in mitigating the risks of abuse and overreach. It considers the role of technology, international cooperation, and intelligence sharing in contemporary counterterrorism efforts and evaluates their potential impact on individual privacy and human rights. In addition, this paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on counterterrorism policy by offering insights into the challenges of balancing security imperatives with the preservation of civil liberties. It advocates for a thoughtful and nuanced approach that fosters security without compromising the core values that define democratic societies.

Abstract

The practice of money laundering is not new nowadays. People have been transferring illegally obtained money (illegal money) to the legal system for a long time (the world of regular money). It is unlawful to possess this kind of money, thus this is done to try to prevent getting caught. Whereas acts of providing, gathering, donating, or lending money, directly or indirectly, with the intent to be used and/or which are known to be used to support terrorist activities, terrorist groups, or terrorists, are considered to be funding terrorism. During the Covid-19 pandemic, digital banking in Indonesia grew rapidly, making transactions for customers relatively simple. Thus, if the government does not make significant steps to combat terrorism financing with the many current legislation, this will become an issue. As a result, in order to stop the financing of terrorism in Indonesia, digital banks must have an AML-CFT system that includes customer due diligence and regular client evaluations. To stop these problems, a number of linked institutions have regulations.

Abstract

Boko Haram terrorism which caused the death and displacement of several thousand citizens, as well as the destruction of properties worth billions USD in the Lake Chad countries, has created a general sense of hopelessness in the populace; traumatizing not only Nigerian army but its concerned politicians, among other stakeholders. In this cloud of anxiety and confusion, a respectable Nigerian newspaper, Daily Trust, revealed in a leading front page story that Nigerian army, navy and air force were assembling weapons to launch a massive, collaborative attacks to reclaim some strategic towns from the insurgents. This led to the military invasion of the newspaper’s headquarters and confiscation of some computers. This research therefore analysed the text of the article that led to the invasion; its possible motivation and implications in the war against the insurgency. And aware of the historical adversarial relationship between the press and Nigerian army, the research also sought to find out how the leading national dailies framed the siege in their reportage and commentary. Thus content analysis (both quantitative and qualitative strands) as well as Goffman’s framing theory undergirded the exploration methodologically. Findings from the study revealed that these dailies (and their sources) largely condemned (52.5%) the invasion, with few others justifying it (17.5%). On the other hand, citing evidences from the text of the controversial story, the research extrapolates that such a story provides unintended intelligence to the terrorists who, capitalizing on the credibility of the sources, they leverage to ambush the military combatants or political office holders with precision. The story in question albeit most conspicuous and daring in revelation, is not an exception in the Nigerian press coverage of Boko Haram insurgency. This is, arguably, resorted to for economic expediency – an attempt at “product differentiation” with scoop which occasionally leads to a goof. Both the report and the military reaction to it, it is further argued, portend some danger to public safety and democracy, and projects the two institutions as working at cross-purposes. Thus the research recommends caution in framing stories in such circumstances so as not to provide the much needed ‘oxygen’ for the sustenance of terrorism. Collaboration among institutions and training in conflict-sensitive journalism for reporters and editors can facilitate the process of peace and resettlement of displaced communities, inter alia.

Abstract

In the face of escalating global terrorism threats, nations worldwide have grappled with the imperative to enact and amend legislation aimed at preventing, detecting, and prosecuting acts of terrorism. This paper conducts a comprehensive and critical examination of legislative responses to terrorism, with a focus on their efficacy, implications for civil liberties, and broader societal impacts. The research begins by analysing the evolution of counterterrorism laws across diverse jurisdictions, emphasizing the shifting landscape of security concerns and the subsequent legal adjustments. It scrutinizes the core features of these legislative measures, including preventive detention, surveillance, intelligence gathering, and the definition of terrorism offenses. A critical analysis is employed to assess the balance between security imperatives and the protection of individual liberties, scrutinizing the potential for abuse, discrimination, and erosion of due process. Case studies from various countries illuminate the real-world consequences of counterterrorism legislation, shedding light on the impact on marginalized communities, legal frameworks, and international human rights standards. The paper also explores the effectiveness of oversight mechanisms, judicial review, and safeguards incorporated within these legislative frameworks to curb potential abuses and protect against overreach. Furthermore, the study considers the role of technology, intelligence-sharing agreements, and international cooperation in shaping legislative responses to terrorism. It aims to provide a nuanced understanding of the challenges and successes in addressing the complex interplay between security concerns and the preservation of fundamental rights. This critical review seeks to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on counterterrorism policy by offering insights into the multifaceted implications of legislative responses. The paper concludes with recommendations for fostering a balanced approach that upholds both security imperatives and the foundational principles of democracy.

Abstract

This study examined the correlation between criminal intelligence management and security operations in Benue State, North Central Nigeria. The study adopted the qualitative method, semi-structured Key Information Interview (KII) technique and review of relevant literature in its investigations. Based on its earlier findings, the following conclusions were reached by the study. A sample size of 21 (n-21) was determined for the study. Findings of the study showed that the way the key tools/agents used for collection of intelligence information for production of criminal intelligence, including informants, surveillance, technologies (ICTs), and community policing, has significant correlation with the outcome of security operations by the Joint Task Force and other outfits involved in the fight against crime in Benue State. Secondly, this study also found that how criminal intelligence analysis phase of the intelligence cycle (process) is managed has significant relationship with the outcome of security operations by the Joint Task Force and other outfits involved in the fight against the rising wave of crime in Benue State. Furthermore, it was also the finding of this study that the way dissemination/sharing of criminal intelligence products among sister anti-crime outfits is managed has significant correlation with the outcome of security operations involved in the fight against crime in Benue State. Another recommendation of the study was adequate provision of operational logistics to the Intelligence Units of various law enforcement agencies, including patrol vehicles, telephones, and other communication equipment, arms and ammunition, and cameras, among others. The study also recommended great efforts at enhancing the capacities of the community policing approach to fighting crime by way of adequate provision of operational logistics, enhanced remuneration, and regular training of volunteers in the various vigilante groups operating across various local and urban neighbourhoods in Nigeria, including the Livestock Guards in Benue State.
