extradite
This term is strictly legal and administrative, carrying a heavy connotation of official state power and international diplomacy. It describes a formal process of surrender rather than a simple arrest or deportation, implying a legal treaty or agreement exists between two sovereign entities to ensure justice is served across borders.
Because it refers to a specific judicial procedure, the word is almost exclusively used in news reports, legal documents, and political discourse. It is never used in casual settings to describe moving someone from one place to another unless the context is specifically about criminal jurisdiction.
