What happens if I am arrested in Thailand before my CCF petition is decided?

Arrest during a pending CCF review is unfortunately common, as Interpol does not suspend Red Notices automatically upon petition filing. In Thailand, you would likely face provisional detention while the requesting state has up to 60 days to submit formal extradition papers. Your Thai defense counsel can file habeas corpus applications and argue for bail, though Thai courts rarely grant bail in extradition matters involving serious charges. Simultaneously, urgent submissions to the CCF requesting expedited review and provisional suspension of the notice become essential to prevent extradition before Interpol rules.
