Interpol Law Firm in India Services:

  • Request for access: Since only a small number of Red Notices are published on INTERPOL’s website, individuals often discover they are subject to a Red Notice when crossing borders or facing adverse measures like bank account closures. In such instances, determining if INTERPOL is processing any data about the individual and its content becomes crucial. Our goal is to accurately identify the data held by INTERPOL to effectively challenge its processing.
  • Pre-emptive request: If a client suspects they may be targeted by a future Red Notice request from a member state, we will submit a pre-emptive request outlining the unlawfulness of the prospective request to prevent its publication.
  • Request for deletion: Once a Red Notice has been published, we prepare a formal request for the deletion of the notice, diffusion, or any data concerning our clients processed through INTERPOL’s channels.
  • Application for revision: In cases where the CCF has decided against the deletion of a Red Notice, and provided certain criteria are met, we will submit an application for revision of the CCF’s decision.
  • Assistance in extradition proceedings: We collaborate with local counsel to prevent our client’s extradition. By offering these comprehensive services, we aim to provide the best possible legal support for individuals facing Interpol-related issues in India.

Challenging and Removing Red Notices issued by India

Challenging and removing Red Notices issued by India requires a thorough understanding of both domestic and international laws, as well as the procedures followed by Interpol. When a Red Notice is issued by Indian authorities, it can have severe consequences for the individual involved, such as restrictions on travel and financial activities. To challenge and remove a Red Notice issued by India, experienced Interpol lawyers must meticulously examine the case, identifying any legal flaws, political motivations, or procedural violations that may render the notice invalid. Once these issues are identified, the lawyers will prepare a well-reasoned and persuasive request for deletion, presenting the case to the Commission for the Control of Interpol’s Files (CCF). The CCF will then review the request, and if they find merit in the arguments presented, the Red Notice may be deleted, allowing the individual to regain their freedom and resume their normal life. Navigating this process successfully necessitates the expertise and dedication of skilled Interpol lawyers who are well-versed in the intricacies of both Indian and international law.
