Extradition: Gulf States

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will take steps to ensure that the National Crime Agency notifies UK citizens of any red notice that has been attached to them by a Gulf state.

Answer

It is HMG’s long-standing policy to neither confirm nor deny (NCND) the existence of an INTERPOL Red Notice or Diffusion against any named individual.

This is in order to support the functioning of our judicial processes. Working with the National Crime Agency, the UK Border Force ensures that relevant information is made available to front-line officers working at the border.
