Are Ukrainian Interpol notices related to draft evasion or military service valid under Interpol rules?

Interpol’s Article 3 explicitly prohibits the organisation’s involvement in matters of a military, political, or religious character. Notices based solely on failure to report for military conscription, desertion, or related military-administrative offences typically fall outside Interpol’s mandate. However, Ukrainian authorities sometimes frame these cases as general criminal matters. The CCF examines the substance of the underlying charges, not just their formal classification. A well-prepared challenge must demonstrate that the true nature of the prosecution is military or political, supported by documentary evidence and contextual analysis.
