Does Spain have extraterritorial jurisdiction?

Question

Does Spain have extraterritorial jurisdiction for any crimes?

The extraterritorial jurisdiction in Spain could be for:

1. Crimes committed by a Spanish national abroad.
2. Crimes committed by a guest abroad that the Spanish courts have jurisdiction over.
3. Crimes committed against a Spanish national abroad.

I provide some real life examples as used by other countries below.

In the United Kingdom, certain crimes, such as under the Bribery Act, can be prosecuted domestically, even though the alleged conduct took place abroad by virtue of the fact that the offender is a British national. In fact, this applies to several different crimes with extraterroritial jurisdiction.

In the United States, it is possible to prosecute someone for killing a US citizen abroad, in a third country.

Just a high level overview is required. I am not interested in private matters, like disputes.

Answer 1

Spain is a signatory of the Rome Statute, and thus also accepts universal jurisdiction for certain very serious crimes. These include war crimes, crimes against humanity, human traficking and other internationally punishable crimes. It seems that, like most countries, such crimes can be brought to justice in Spain if any of the listed conditions are true: The victim was Spanish, the accused is in Spain, or the case affects Spain as a whole.
