Public Intl LAw I Tutorial

wk 14 asgnmt 12 state jurisdiction & immunity:

whether Malaysia have criminal jurisdiction over X, a foreign national, on a foreign vessel, registered in state A in following cases:

(a) X discharges firearm which kills someone on the Malaysian shore while the foreign vessel of which X was on board is passing through Malaysian territorial sea.

(c) X has been accused by State B of having committed acts of piracy and the foreign vessel has just arrived in a harbor within the Malaysian territory.

if it does, what type of jurisdiction would MAlaysia be exercising?
How would your answer differ if X was a naval officer and the foreign vessel was a foreign warship?
