Can a Red Notice be removed if the underlying charges are politically motivated?

Yes, Article 3 of Interpol’s Constitution prohibits involvement in cases of a political, military, religious, or racial character. If you can demonstrate that the requesting state is using criminal charges to persecute you for political opposition, journalism, or human rights activism, the CCF may order deletion. Successful challenges require substantial documentary evidence—such as country condition reports, asylum decisions, or NGO documentation—establishing a pattern of persecution. The CCF typically decides deletion requests within 4–9 months, though urgent requests may be expedited where ongoing detention is involved.
