Abstract
Piracy has been a pervasive issue for centuries. Historically, it gained momentum during the era of slave trade, with pirates plundering cargoes from merchant vessels in the open sea, resulting in the loss of life and property, as well as economic damage. As maritime trade expanded, it became necessary to establish laws to curb and counter piracy, which posed a significant threat. International conventions were subsequently developed to safeguard stakeholders, but their limited effectiveness was due to the non-binding nature of these agreements. Weaknesses in domestic laws, lack of jurisdiction, and inadequate trial procedures further hindered the efforts of individual states to combat piracy, leading to collaborative initiatives and naval operations to confront the perpetrators at sea. The article aims to explore the measures that have been implemented to tackle piracy in the maritime domain. The author has provided a brief overview of the topic, focusing on transnational organised crime against humanity. It is recommended that readers delve deeper into the subject to gain a comprehensive understanding of the issue.
