First “Silver Notice” from Interpol – pilot project launched for tracing criminal assets
The exchange of information at Interpol basically takes two forms: “Notices” and “Diffusions”. “Notices” are alerts that the respective member state forwards centrally to Interpol, from where they are distributed to all member states. “Diffusions” are sent by the requesting member state directly to the desired member state as a recipient. Interpol subsequently also records them in its database. Depending on the purpose of the request (search for suspected criminals, missing persons reports, etc.), Interpol distinguishes between eight color categories for notices and diffusions (red, yellow, blue, black, green, orange, purple and silver).
