Interpol Asks to Arrest WikiLeaks’ Founder

Interpol Asks to arrest the founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange who published U.S. secrets cables in the last days, which caused chaos in global diplomacy

The international police organization sent a “Red Notification” to 188 states against WikiLeaks founder, because, Assange has a research for “Violation and sexual assault” in Sweden.

“There is a ‘red notice’ public from Sweden,” a spokesman for Interpol said to the AFP.

The organization received from Sweden on November 20 arrest warrants for extradition.

The “red notices” are used to request the provisional arrest with a view to extradition of a wanted person, and are based on an arrest warrant or a court order.
