Certain requests used by
Interpol are sent by forms of Notices. The color of each notice
determines the type of information being sent or received by Interpol and
its members. Here are the notices and the type of information they contain.
RED NOTICE
BLUE NOTICE
BLACK NOTICE
GREEN NOTICE
YELLOW NOTICE
ORANGE NOTICE
Red notices are used to
ask for a criminal found in one county to be arrested because of an arrest
warrant found in another country called extradition. This is used as a new
age wanted poster.
Blue
notices are requests from one country to ask if any other country in
Interpol knows any specific information about a person, so the country
sending it can find information on a suspect of a crime. These are also used
in kidnappings.
Black notices are sent by countries that are
requesting any information from any other country to identify a deceased
person that is not in that country's records.
Green
notices are warnings from one country to another to warn that a suspect
is traveling to that country and might commit another crime. This
information is used to have police keep an eye on that person.
Yellow notices are used to help locate
missing persons that are being searched in a country. They are also used to
identify persons who cant identify themselves.
Orange notices are used to warn
countries or their governmental facilities of an attack from concealed
explosives that can be devastating.
The notices are from the
Interpol website. |
