Interpol Solicitors & International Criminal Police Organization

Interpol Lawyers Dmytro Konovalenko

Interpol, or the International criminal police organization, is aimed to facilitate and enhance police cooperation between Interpol member countries. Its headquarters is based in Lyon, France.

There are currently 195 countries which are members of Interpol. It was founded in 1923, and its first president was Eugène de Klerk from the Netherlands.

Interpol’s work focuses on public safety and combating transnational and organized crime. Its activities include coordinating international police efforts to track down fugitives, tackling cybercrimes, terrorist activity, human trafficking, money laundering, and financial crimes, and intercepting the trafficking of illicit drugs and weapons.

Interpol activities imply different types of law enforcement cooperation between the member countries, as well as on a domestic level.

INTERPOL consists of several organs, such as:

  • The President
  • General Assembly
  • General Secretariat, and
  • Commission for the Control of Interpol’s files (also known as the CCF).

The CCF is the crucial Interpol’s independent authority ultimately responsible for the processing of data in the Interpol Information System.

The legal framework of INTERPOL includes:

  • The Interpol’s Constitution: the governing and fundamental document of Interpol. It was last amended in 2010.
  • Interpol’s Rules for the Processing of Data: these rules set out the legal grounds for data registration, processing, and deletion by Interpol.
  • The Statute of the CCF: governs the CCF activity.
  • The Interpol Operational Guidelines: aimed to guide the member countries in carrying out Interpol’s activities on a domestic level.
  • Resolutions of the General Secretariat: aimed to elucidate the intricate issues of Interpol activities.

INTERPOL also has several specialized units which carry out specific tasks:

  • The Fugitive Investigative Support Unit helps members to track down fugitives.
  • The Financial Crimes Unit investigates money laundering and other financial crimes.
  • The Trafficking in Illicit Goods and Technologies unit combat the trafficking of drugs, weapons, and other illicit goods.
  • The Terrorism Prevention Unit works to prevent and tackle terrorist activity.

Interpol’s work is essential and important in today’s globalized world. It helps make the world a safer place by facilitating police cooperation and stopping transnational organized crime. Meantime, national law enforcement agencies often abuse the INTERPOL channels to seek fugitives for politically motivated crimes or to “settle scores” with businessmen who refused to pay them. That is why you better hire a qualified INTERPOL lawyer who will protect you from illegal actions and get your name removed from the INTERPOL’s files.

Search Your Name

NOTE: The majority of Interpol Red Notices are not on the public database. Therefore, you should be careful, because the notices are circulated among 195 countries worldwide. Contact our lawyer Dmytro Konovalenko for a free consultation by sending an email to [email protected] and check how you can seek removal of the notice.

INTERPOL keeps a (1) public and (2) private (law enforcement only) list of Red Notices.

What Does Interpol Do?

Interpol’s primary goal is to assist member countries in their fight against international organized crime. This includes investigation of terrorism, human trafficking, drug trafficking, money laundering, cybercrimes and more.

To achieve this goal, INTERPOL operates in various capacities and fulfils different functions, including:

  • Assisting in the information exchange between member countries: This helps law enforcement agencies to keep track of “criminals” that may be operating in multiple countries.
  • Coordinating international investigations: This allows helps national law enforcement agencies to extend their jurisdiction internationally.
  • Providing training and capacity enhancement: This helps national law enforcement agencies build up their capabilities to fight crime, as well as to be up-to-date with international standards and achievements.
  • Collecting and analyzing intelligence data: This helps the NCBs of various countries to study and identify new trends in “international crimes”, as well as to spot new methods of crimes commitment (“modus operandi”), devices used etc. With the help of these knowledge, it becomes easier for the law enforcement in different countries to tackle new sophisticated “crimes”, particularly related to cryptocurrency, cybercrimes etc.
  • Developing and issuing guidance on Interpol best practices: This helps member countries stay up-to-date on the latest methods developed for fighting “crimes”.

Interpol also works to raise awareness of typical international crimes and helps the general public understand how they can protect themselves from becoming victims.

Interpol provides a wide range of resources to its members, including a database of “criminal profiles” and fingerprints, as well as a system for issuing Interpol Red Notices.

In addition to its work with member countries, Interpol also carries out projects to combat specific types of crime. These include:

  • Project Stolen Dreams: This project targets people who engage in the trafficking of stolen vehicles.
  • Project Sunbird: This project targets people who engage in the illegal trade of endangered animals.
  • Project Synergy: This project targets people who engage in producing and distributing synthetic drugs.

How Interpol Fulfills its Role as an International Police Cooperation Authority

To fulfill its role and functions, Interpol has several capabilities and resources at its disposal, including:

  • A global network of law enforcement contacts: It can facilitate information sharing and intelligence between police forces and local authorities worldwide.
  • A wide range of Interpol’s databases: It maintains several databases containing information on wanted persons, missing persons, fingerprints, DNA profiles, stolen vehicles, and some others. This information is made available to 195 member countries and their law enforcement agencies to investigate “crimes” and locate individuals for the purpose of serving justice.
  • A team of experts: It employs a team of experts in various fields, including forensics, cybercrimes, financial crimes, money laundering, war crimes, and terrorism. These experts provide training and assistance to the law enforcement of Interpol member countries.
  • A 24-hour Operation Center: The Interpol Operation Center is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It provides a central point of contact for members and facilitates information and intelligence sharing. Interpol Information System is called І-24/7 and it was created in 2003 based on TCP/IP protocol for immediate and secure information sharing.

Interpol also has many specialized units that focus on specific crime areas, such as human trafficking, drug trafficking, economic crimes, money laundering, cybercrimes, financial crimes, and terrorism. In addition to its law enforcement functions, Interpol also provides support to victims of any serious crime, helps locate missing persons, and assists in disaster victim identification. Interpol’s work is essential in today’s globalized world, where criminals often operate across borders and take advantage of the fact that police forces are not always able to cooperate effectively. It provides a much-needed platform for international police cooperation, and its work helps make the world a safer place.

You Are Not Alone

Beyond Red Notices

Our Interpol Red Notice Law Firm is familiar with all types of Interpol notices and can help you handle each one.

Problems arising in Interpol cases:

  • Interpol Red Notice can make it hard to travel and open bank accounts.
  • A Green Notice can prevent someone from entering a country
  • Yellow Notices are sometimes improperly issued.
  • Blue Notices can result in the subject being monitored and tracked

Green Notices

Interpol Green Notice issued to provide warning about a person’s criminal activities, where the person is considered to be a possible threat to public safety.

Yellow Notices

Yellow Notices issued when a person is missing and their whereabouts are not known.

Blue Notices

Interpol Blue Notices issued to collect additional information about a person’s identity, location or activities in relation to a criminal investigation.

Diffusions

Similar to Red Notices, Diffusions can be circulated directly among one or a few countries (NCB) rather than all of INTERPOL’s member countries.

Preemptive Requests

When our clients are concerned that they may soon be Red Notice subjects, we start building legal defense in their cases and contact INTERPOL before an arrest warrant is ever issued, which is a very effective legal mechanism to block the Red Notice publication.

Extradition Defense

We defend clients facing extradition requests by challenging the legal basis, ensuring their rights are protected, and addressing concerns such as potential human rights violations or unfair trials.

Expert Legal Opinions

We provide profound and substantiated legal opinions to courts outside the United States regarding U.S.-based legal matters and INTERPOL cases, practices, and rules.

Global Personal Data Checks & Corrections

We assist our clients to keep their data secure by striving to modify and remove any inaccurate information processed regarding them by different organizations, task forces and financial intelligence units (FIU), such as FATF, MONEYVAL, OFAC, Egmont Group etc.

Interpol Red Notices

Interpol Red Notice is an international warrant issued by INTERPOL at the request of a national government. Once issued, all 195 members are obliged to assist in locating and provisionally arresting the subject of the Interpol Red Notice.

However, an Interpol Red Notice is not an internationally enforceable arrest warrant; it merely alerts law enforcement officials worldwide that individuals are wanted by a requesting country so that, once making international travel, they can be arrested and extradited for prosecution in the requesting country.

For every Red Notice issued, the requesting country must provide evidence that individual is wanted for criminal prosecution or for serving a sentence. The request must also comply with Interpol’s regulations and rules for extradition designed to protect fundamental human rights. Failure to follow these guidelines makes the notice improperly issued, and, subsequently, it can be removed from Interpol’s files. Our qualified Interpol Lawyers can help you to delete your data from Interpol databases.

If you are facing extradition proceedings or have been arrested based on Interpol Notice, you better immediately seek qualified and professional legal assistance from Interpol lawyers. The consequences of extradition to another country once INTERPOL notice is enforced can be severe, and you will need attorneys who understand the complexities and peculiarities of how Interpol’s Red Notices function, Interpol legal framework as well as how to spot possible violations of Interpol regulations and breach of human rights.

Interpol Red Notices Removal

Our distinguished Interpol Red Notice Law Firm and highly qualified attorneys have a lot of deep and successful extensive experience in the removal of Interpol’s Red Notices. Once Interpol issues a red notice, it will appear on the Interpol website and if the police interact with you on any basis or pretext in one of Interpol’s member countries (for example, during immigration issues, or a traffic accident), they will immediately be able to see that there is a red notice against you, which may lead to your arrest. Consult with our top-end Interpol red notice lawyers to know how you can mitigate the risk of your exposure once you presume you may be a Red Notice subject wanted by INTERPOL.

Red Notice Services

Request for Information – Only a small portion of Red Notices are made publicly available on INTERPOL’s website. In many cases, individuals only become aware that they are the subject of a Red Notice when they attempt to cross a border or encounter issues such as bank account closures or other restrictions. Therefore, it is crucial to determine if INTERPOL holds any data related to the individual and, if so, to review its content. Our objective is to identify exactly what information INTERPOL has in order to contest the processing of that data effectively.

Preventative Request – If a client suspects they could be targeted by a future Red Notice from a member state, our Interpol lawyers will submit a preventative request. This request outlines the illegitimacy of the potential Red Notice, aiming to stop its issuance before it can be made public.

Appeal for Review – In situations where the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Files (CCF) refuses to remove a Red Notice, our team of Interpol lawyers will submit an appeal for the revision of the CCF’s decision, provided the necessary conditions are met.

Sanctions Defense – Our dedicated team of sanctions lawyers and financial intelligence lawyers works collaboratively to provide comprehensive legal advice and representation for clients dealing with the challenges posed by economic sanctions and financial investigations. With an in-depth understanding of international regulations and a keen insight into the financial sector, we are well-equipped to help our clients navigate complex compliance issues, respond to enforcement actions, and protect their business interests. Trust Interpol lawyers to deliver the exceptional legal support you need to successfully manage your sanctions and financial intelligence matters.

We Plan Accordingly

Handling Fugitive Extradition

A Red Notice is issued when a country wants help from INTERPOL’s other member countries in apprehending and extraditing a person who has allegedly committed a crime in that country.

If someone is detained due to a Red Notice, that person may be extradited to the country seeking prosecution. If you wish to remove a Red Notice, you should start that process as soon as possible before a Red Notice is used as grounds for detention.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cases go to INTERPOL?
Unfortunately, a threshold for a Red Notice publication by INTERPOL is very low. In other words – if you are facing a prosecution on a national level, you may be subject to INTERPOL Red Notice.
What country is not in INTERPOL?
Bhutan, North Korea, Micronesia, Palau, Samoa, San Marino, Solomon Islands, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Tuvalu, and the Vatican. But you should remember that these countries may also arrest and extradite you. In order to minimize these risks, contact our experienced Interpol Lawyers.
How do I remove my name from INTERPOL?
Our Interpol investigation lawyers work successfully with Interpol and have repeatedly proved that the persecution of a person who turned to us for help was unfounded, or politically motivated. Dozens of our clients live peacefully in the European Union and continue their business activities despite attempts to prosecute, filing an international wanted list and other obstacles.
How do I know if I am on Interpol?
First, you need to look at the official Interpol website for the list of wanted persons - https://www.interpol.int/ . Secondly, write a letter to the regional bureau of Interpol. Let us help you, write us [email protected] and our Interpol investigation solicitor will send a special request to Interpol.
Can INTERPOL directly arrest individuals?
INTERPOL cannot directly arrest individuals. It issues notices, such as Red Notices, which alert member countries about wanted persons, but arrests are carried out by national law enforcement agencies based on local laws.
How does a Red Notice affect extradition?
A Red Notice can trigger the extradition process by alerting member countries that an individual is wanted for prosecution or sentencing. While it is not an arrest warrant, it often leads to the detention of the person while extradition requests are processed according to the laws of the country where the individual is located.
What types of requests can person submit to the CCF?
Individuals can submit three main types of requests to the CCF:
  • request for access to personal data held by INTERPOL;
  • request for correction or deletion of inaccurate or unlawful data;
  • request for the revision of decisions related to Red Notices or other data issues.
How can you challenge INTERPOL notices?
INTERPOL notices can be challenged by submitting a request to the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Files (CCF). This involves presenting evidence to prove that the notice is unlawful, politically motivated, or violates human rights. The CCF can then review the case and may recommend the deletion or correction of the notice if the claims are valid.
