Warnings

The Warnings datasource is a data source containing information about individuals internationally sought by Interpol. Interpol (International Criminal Police Organization) maintains a database of international arrest warrants issued by judicial authorities of its member countries. These warrants are issued for individuals wanted for suspicion or accusation of serious crimes such as terrorism, drug trafficking, financial crimes, violent crimes, among others. The information contained in Interpol's lists includes the names of wanted individuals, their photographs, physical descriptions, details of the crimes they are wanted for, and other relevant information to facilitate their identification and location on a global scale. These lists are used by law enforcement authorities, security agencies, and other entities responsible for law enforcement worldwide for the capture and extradition of international fugitives.
