The International Police (INTERPOL) has placed former Suriname president Desi Bouterse on its Red Notice list, nearly three months after he was sentenced to 20 years in jail for murder.
The police in Suriname issued an arrest notice for the convicted former president on January 17.
A 'Red Notice' is an official request to law enforcement authorities worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest an individual pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action. It is based on an arrest or court order issued by the judicial authorities in the requesting country.
The whereabouts of the 78-year-old remain a mystery after he first failed to keep his scheduled appointment in January to report to the prison in Santo Boma, just south of the capital, Paramaribo.
