When an offence falls within the jurisdiction of more than one Member State and when any of the Member States concerned can validly prosecute on the basis of the same facts, the Member States concerned shall cooperate in order to decide which of them will prosecute the offenders with the aim, if possible, of centralising proceedings in a single Member State. To this end, the Member States may have recourse to Eurojust in order to facilitate cooperation between their judicial authorities and the coordination of their action. Account shall be taken of the following factors: (a) the Member State shall be that in the territory of which the offence was committed; (b) the Member State shall be that of which the offender is a national or resident; (c) the Member State shall be the country of origin of the victims; (d) the Member State shall be that in the territory of which the offender was found. |
