Red and blue corner notices

Red Notice: It is issued by Interpol to seek location and arrest of wanted persons with a view to extradition or similar lawful action. It is the closest instrument to an international arrest warrant. It meant to provide the information to the national agency / authority on whose request the Notice was issued.

Blue corner notice: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) website refers to Blue Notices as ‘B Series (Blue) Notices’. It says, “The ‘B’ series notices are also called ‘enquiry notices’ and may be issued in order to have someone’s identity verified; to obtain particulars of a person’s criminal record; to locate someone who is missing or is an identified or unidentified international criminal or is wanted for a violation of ordinary criminal law and whose extradition may be requested.”
