Anti-Terrorism Act, Cap. 158
The Government of Barbados enacted the Anti-Terrorism Act to implement United Nations conventions and resolutions regarding the suppression of terrorism financing. The legislation defines terrorism and its financing as criminal offenses punishable by life imprisonment or death, while establishing strict liability for legal entities and mandating the freezing and forfeiture of related funds. It further empowers authorities to investigate suspects, extradite offenders, and assert jurisdiction over extraterritorial acts threatening Barbadian national security.
