- INTERPOL Abuse Exposed - Information and Press Pack
Interpol Red Notice Press & Information Pack - Interpol Abuse - Interpol Red Notice Removal - Interpol Lawyer Download your free Media and information pack on Interpol Abuse (PDF attached), produced by leading expert Radha Stirling, one of the most prominent voices against Interpol abuse since 2008. Radha Stirling founded IPEX Reform, an advisory for Interpol and Extradition process reform, aiming to increase pressure on Interpol to make member countries accountable for their abuse of the database and to make Interpol liable for abuse. Stirling speaks on this issue at legislative level, at think tanks, conferences and to the media, exposing corruption and inadequacies present in the international crime reporting organisation. When Interpol fails to uphold standards of fairness, transparency, and accountability; and when it is allowed to become a mechanism of injustice, persecution, and extortion, global law enforcement is in a worse position than if Interpol did not exist at all. Stirling has been helping people clear the name from Interpol’s unregulated database for a decade and a half. Stirling has seen all kinds of notices, green, blue, red and has helped victims of Interpol Red Notices get their freedom back, and their reputations. Stirling’s clients have included prominent businessmen, politicians, journalists, and a number of bank debtors who have been misreported under the category of “fraud”. A number of Stirling’s Interpol victims have been reported as a means to extort, harass or blackmail individuals. She has deleted Notices from South Korea to Egypt, the Middle East, Europe and beyond. She defends Interpol Abuse victims against extradition requests and state harassment and is leading a team in legal actions against the body.

- Sheikh Offers Compensation for Hacking
Radha Stirling hails Azima Judgment in RAK case The recent victories in the case of Farhad Azima against the criminal activities of the Ras Al Khaimah Investment Authority (RAKIA) and former attorneys of Dechert LLP, come after years of litigation support, media outreach and investigations, coordinated between the Azima legal team and Detained in Dubai. “We are proud of our contribution in this case, helping not only to vindicate Mr. Azima, but also to expose the entrenched corruption and criminality of RAKIA, which includes unlawful detentions, torture, intimidation of witnesses, and other grave human rights violations,” Detained in Dubai Founder and CEO Radha Stirling said after RAKIA abandoned their defence in a UK trial and offered a million-dollar settlement to Azima. “For well over a decade, Shekih Saud bin Saqr Al Qassimi, the ruler of Ras Al Khaimah, has operated like a mafia don,” She continued, “His Dechert lawyers acted as henchmen and fully participated in criminal abuses of power; believing they were above the law”. It has been established that Neil Gerard of Dechert LLP hired India-based tech firm CyberRoot Risk Advisory Private Ltd, through an intermediary, to hack Mr. Azima’s emails to illegally obtain evidence they could use to tarnish his reputation and to vacate a previous judgment that required RAKIA to pay him $3.7 million. Based on the hacked emails, RAKIA indeed won in court, and did not have to pay the earlier settlement. Detained in Dubai reports UAE's Israel-US hacking agent to FBI Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre “Overwhelmed by the proof of Dechert’s wrongdoing, RAKIA has basically confessed,” Stirling explained, “They have offered Mr. Azima a $1 million settlement, but he has refused and instead launched a counterclaim to invalidate the judgement based on the hacked emails, so that RAKIA will again be required to honour the original $3.7 million settlement of 2016.” Dechert scandal leads to worldwide UAE investment warning Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre Once Detained in Dubai became involved in Azima’s case, they were able to cross-reference the relevant players in Ras Al Khaimah, and provide his legal team with crucial background and a wealth of new evidence. “We have dealt with multiple cases in Ras Al Khaimah, particularly those connected to RAKIA and the conduct of Dechert’s lawyers working for Sheikh Saud,” Stirling said, “We are very familiar with characters like Neil Gerard, who has been implicated in serious human rights violations involving our other clients; and we have documented a litany of abuses committed by Sheikh Saud. When Mr. Azima’s team contacted us, suffice it to say, we were well-equipped to support the litigation.” RAK’s Volatile Dictatorship Unsafe for Investors Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre Radha Stirling has distinguished herself as the preeminent expert on the UAE and is frequently consulted by leaders in government and the private sector, as well as appearing regularly in the media to discuss legal, political, and economic issues related to the Gulf. She has expanded her work through the creation of Due Process International which supports victims of legal abuse across the globe; as well as lobbied for Interpol and extradition reform through her organisation IPEX. The King of Interpol Abuse Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre “What we were able to bring to the Azima case exemplifies the unique basket of skills and expertise we have assembled in these 3 organisations over the past 13 years” Stirling reflected, “We offer a hybrid of PR and media strategy prowess, combined with legal knowledge, geopolitical and economic savvy, and access to a broad network of professionals, academics, NGOs, and experts across fields from law and human rights, to media, to government. We are glad that we were able to assist in this case, and will continue to support Mr. Azima moving forward. In our experience, the UAE does not self-correct; without persistent pressure and exposure of abuses, their default posture is one of defiance and intransigence. But reforms and improvements can be made over time as long as we remain diligent and pursue justice through every possible channel.” Due Process International Litigation Support & PR ‘Fitch must review new Ras Al Khaimah evidence’, says UAE expert Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre Israeli Snoop-for-Hire Posed as a Fox News Journalist for a Spy Operation Detained in Dubai: http://www.detainedindubai.org Detained in Doha: https://www.detainedindoha.org Radha Stirling: http://www.radhastirling.com CLAN - Crypto Legal Advocacy Network - https://www.bitclan.org/ Due Process International: http://www.dueprocess.international IPEX - Interpol & Extradition Reform & Defence Experts - https://www.ipexreform.com/ Podcast: http://www.gulfinjustice.news Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6KH20nw...

- FIFA 2022 - Arrests expected in Qatar & the Middle East
Qatar is set to attract millions of football fans to the world cup in November and December with hotels so scarce that many visitors plan to commute from neighbouring countries like the UAE, Oman and Bahrain. With this sudden influx of foreigners, Detained in Doha is receiving dozens of calls asking just how safe Qatar is. Regional expert Radha Stirling, CEO of Detained in Doha & Detained in Dubai, has grave concerns. “Although Dubai is often the focus of criticism over wrongful arrests and lengthy detentions, Qatar follows the same patterns and is very aggressive with their application of the law and pursuit of foreign nationals abroad. Those alleged to have violated laws will face lengthy and unfair detention, a lack of consular support, a substandard justice system and expensive lawyers. “Qatar in a sense, is less concerned about their international image. They have faced extensive criticism from Arab neighbours and human rights organisations for their alleged support of terrorism and their treatment of migrant workers, making them more resilient. “A number of British and foreign nationals have faced human rights abuses within Qatar and are still detained in prison for crimes they have not committed. Local VIP’s with “Wasta” have significant influence over local law enforcement and judges. “We have seen the way a flight of Australians were treated, strip searched and violated by local authorities. This treatment should serve as an indication of the immaturity and lack of rules and procedures within law enforcement. Australian government slammed for buckling to Qatar royals who “consider us infidels” Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre "Tourists have faced detention for trivial issues including having alcohol in the system, “rude” behaviour that is often a cultural difference or subjective in nature, disputes with hotels, rental car companies or other businesses and false allegations from vindictive locals. “Conor Howard was arrested for having a brand new herb grinder in his luggage, later freed then placed on Interpol’s database which caused him to be detained in Greece for several months. Interpol Red Notices can be issued by Qatar for the most trivial of reasons and they will vigorously pursue their target. British tourist, 27, faces extradition to Qatar after being found with a cannabis grinder Daily Mail Online “Most Embassies in Qatar are there to promote trade relations. They are generally unsupportive of citizens who face legal or human rights abuses and help should not be expected. MPs wined and dined by Qatari royals in £4,000 ‘freebie’ Metro News “Members of the LGBT community have already been denied rooms at hotels and care should be taken to hide their sexual orientation. Homosexuality is illegal and the penalties can be severe across the entire Middle East. “Care should be taken to delete any explicit photographs or videos before travel as these can also lead to arrest if discovered. “Swearing, road rage or offensive behaviour will lead to arrest and lengthy detention. Often the allegations are fabricated by the instigator but if he or she complains first, their account will be favoured. “If visitors are at a location where someone is found to have drugs, police may arrest everyone at that location. If one is accused of trafficking, friends or groups may be charged simply for being in the vicinity. “Visitors should take care with their social media presence and even private communications on WhatsApp or text. Anything deemed to be offensive by an onlooker or the recipient can result in a police complaint. “Brits should consider whether they want to support a regime that has jailed and abused people like Jonathan Nash, Joe Sarlak and Ranald Crook. The regime has misused Interpol’s database to extort and try to jail British nationals in Europe as a means to harass them. Countries who treat foreigners with such contempt are a risk to those who travel and visiting could be a one way ticket”.

- United Nations to hear US FBI abuse of crypto expert Chris Emms
British national and crypto expert, Chris Emms, has filed a petition to the United Nations to rule on his wrongful detention in Saudi Arabia and human rights violations at the request of the United States. The FBI issued an Interpol Red Notice against 30 year old Christopher Emms for allegedly ‘conspiring to violate’ US sanctions under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) by attending a cryptocurrency conference in North Korea (DPRK) in 2019, a time where the US President and diplomats were bridging the gap in relations. US seeks extradition of British national over cryptocurrency conference: The case of Christopher Emms. Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre “IEEPA specifically provides that it only applies to US citizens”, explains extradition expert Radha Stirling, “and Chris is not a US ‘person’. He is not required to abide by US domestic law unless he is actually within the United States. Chris is a British citizen who, in attending the Pyongyang conference, did not violate any British, European or international laws. Frankly, nor did he violate any US laws. It is absurd that the government of the United States would try to impose its domestic laws on foreign nationals, abuse their membership to Interpol and cause the arbitrary detention and human rights violations of a young man in Saudi Arabia. It is insulting to the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia and the international community that the US is imposing on their sovereignty and trying to export domestic laws with aggressive and abusive tactics. “Countries need to draw a red line and let the US know that their jurisdiction stops 12 nautical miles from their land borders. Foreign nationals can NOT be expected to learn American law at school and should never be extradited for alleged violations of US domestic law OUTSIDE of the US. Extradition of British crypto expert to USA would challenge UK sovereignty Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre “It starts with going after ‘terrorists’ or journalists and then it extends to average people like Chris Emms who the US wants to use to make a ‘point’ to the crypto community. The US wants their sanctions to be obeyed by everyone, not just the sanctioned party but abusing the law to enforce their foreign policy is not the way to do it. If they want Brits to follow US sanctions, they should lobby the British government to impose the same sanctions on their citizens. British citizens are only required to follow the legal sanctions of their own country. “Our governments must be held to account for their increasing overreach of powers. We are calling on The United Nations to emphasise the principles of sovereignty to the US and to recommend the immediate release of Christopher Emms and compensation for the hundreds of thousands in legal bills he has had to foot”. See why the US is persecuting crypto professionals: Colonising the Cryptosphere - by Radha Stirling Due Process Newsroom & Media Centre Stirling has helped clients delete wrongful Interpol Red Notice’s since 2008. “The misuse of Interpol’s database is so appalling, especially so when it comes from countries like the US from whom we expect a better standard of due process. We regularly defend clients from extradition proceedings all over the world. These are the most frightening times of people’s lives. It’s something nobody expects they will have to deal with in their lifetime. They are not international fugitives, drug lords or terrorists. They are average workers, flight attendants, pilots and entrepreneurs with no criminal history but because Interpol has immunity, there is no incentive to improve their standards.” Stirling has acted for a number of clients petitioning for United Nations involvement, including Dubai’s Sheikha Latifa Al Maktoum. “The UN is often the last resort for those who have tried everything legally and diplomatically to resolve their situation. It’s important that the UN human rights and sovereignty principles are enforced against countries who would willingly violate them. We hope the FBI will review their criteria for submitting Interpol Red Notices to ensure they are acting within international guidelines in the future”. Home | CLAN Crypto Legal Advocacy Network.

- #Qatar National Bank extradition request denied
Qatar National Bank (QNB) issued an #Interpol Red Notice against an #Australian citizen over “forged bounced cheque” he could not have authored. The bank never communicated there were any issues with his account and the first he heard of it, was when he was arrested in Prague and jailed on the basis of the Interpol Red Notice. This is not the first time Prague has detained a foreign national on behalf of Qatar. He was denied bail and forced to hire a lawyer to defend the extradition request. The last time #Czech detained a foreigner on the basis of a Qatar notice, the courts ruled it was a violation of his human rights but it seems they have not learned their lesson. After months in prison, a judge finally denied the extradition request. It was not possible that he had written the cheque in question and was not even in the country at the time. “QNB is one of the most aggressive banks with their use of Interpol’s database, frequently using the crime reporting system to extort, harass and punish customers”, said Radha Stirling, Interpol expert and founder of IPEX. “We will be removing the Interpol Red Notice but urge anyone who could be at risk of red notice to check with us before travel. The notices are not published on Interpol’s website and numerous people have been apprehended in Europe and abroad”.

- British cryptocurrency expert accused of helping North Korea avoid sanctions by the US
[Article by Hannah Lucinda Smith, Originally published at The Times, Friday June 03 2022] North Korea’s first cryptocurrency conference proffered an irresistible prize to digital currency evangelists. Held in Pyongyang in April 2019, it promised a rare glimpse into the hermit kingdom’s fabled cryptocurrency sector, which experts believe the country is using to help fund its weapons programmes. Three years on, that conference has sparked an extensive US investigation, which has already led to the conviction and 63-month imprisonment of Virgil Griffith, an American citizen and former developer with the blockchain ethereum, one of eight foreigners who attended. Now, the dragnet has also ensnared Christopher Emms, a Briton, who is awaiting an extradition hearing in Saudi Arabia having been detained there under an Interpol red notice. Others in the cryptocurrency sphere who were invited said that they were invited either by Cao de Benos or by people who said they were cryptocurrency developers in China — not by Emms. The US believes that North Korea’s sophisticated hacker army has amassed billions of dollars in cryptocurrency since 2017, much of it through cyberattack ransoms. British citizens are allowed to visit North Korea, and the UK is one of the few western states to maintain diplomatic relations. On his return from Pyongyang in April 2019, Emms was stopped at Gatwick and was questioned by police officers about his trip. When he got home, he called the MI6 hotline and asked whether he could offer any information. In late 2019, he met security services officers twice in the United Arab Emirates. “I felt they were trying to get to the bottom of whether any laws were broken,” Emms said. “They were very interested in the conference. But it was very casual: ‘Tell us about you. What did you see? What happened?’.” A couple of days later, one of the officers told Emms that they would not be taking the case any further. “He said don’t be silly, don’t mess up your life,” Emms recalled. But when Griffith was then indicted in the US in January 2020, Emms was listed as a co-conspirator. He hired a US lawyer, and offered to speak t0 prosecutors. They were not interested in talking to him. But everything seemed to change after Griffith pleaded guilty in last September, taking a deal in return for a reduced sentence. After he was sentenced last month, the prosecutors issued their indictment against Emms, by then detained in Saudi Arabia, and Cao de Benos, who remains on the run. Radha Stirling, the lawyer who is helping Emms fight his extradition, said the US’s target appears to be reigning in cryptocurrency, not Pyongyang. “American authorities are trying to creatively expand the legal applicability of the IEEPA (US sanctions legislation) to non-US persons; and they are doing it in Chris’s case through blatant intimidation.” Emms is now hoping to be allowed to return to Britain to fight his extradition. He is also applying to open a case against America at the UN tribunal for deprivation of liberty. “My reputation and Virgil Griffith’s is already ruined. I don’t have much left to lose,” he said. “But I can’t just go to the US and sit there and plead guilty. If I do, they will keep doing this to others.” The Times approached the US Department of Justice, the British Foreign Office and Treasury and Cao de Benos for comment. None had responded by the time of publication.

- FBI 'Most Wanted' talks Universal Jurisdiction with Radha Stirling on the Gulf in Justice Podcast
Extradition expert Radha Stirling hosts first discussion with British citizen Christopher Emms on the Gulf in Justice Podcast. Chris was listed on Interpol's Red Notice database in February for allegedly "conspiring to violate" US sanctions when he attended a cryptocurrency conference in North Korea. Chris is not a US citizen and is not subject to US law. He is not required to know or learn US law. He violated NO British or international laws but the US is throwing their weight around, intimidating and bullying foreign citizens. Radha Stirling, CEO of Due Process International and IPEX Reform said "Emms and the expert allegedly answered specific questions about blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies for the DPRK audience, including individuals whom they understood worked for the North Korean government, proposed plans to create specialized “smart contracts” to serve the DPRK’s unique interests, and mapped out cryptocurrency transactions designed to evade and avoid United States sanctions, including by diagramming such transactions on a whiteboard for the North Korean audience." #FreeChrisEmms #FreeAssange #StateHarassment http://www.dueprocess.international http://www.ipexreform.com http://www.bitclan.org http://www.radhastirling.com
- Wow! US expands GLOBAL jurisdiction (for itself only) - FBI hunts innocent Brit after Assange abuse
The US is feeling emboldened after persecution and near extradition of Julian Assange. Now, they're hunting a British citizen who LEGALLY attended a conference in North Korea that the British government approved. He's broken NO British or international laws and is NOT an American or even required to learn US law. It's a disgraceful overreach of FBI powers to be able to harass an innocent British citizen by listing him on Interpol and seeking to extradite him for "conspiring to violate" US sanctions he is not even required by law to follow. The US would NEVER accept any OTHER sovereign nation imposing their laws or values on US citizens so why would any other country give the US the right to do that to their citizens? If we do so, we are ceding sovereignty to America simply because they are willing to harass, blackmail and bully other nations and victims into submission and compliance. Christopher Emms from Reigate, Surrey is currently detained in Saudi Arabia fighting extradition to the US under a law that specifically only applies to US citizens. This is state harassment and it needs to stop before any country has the ability to pluck any citizen from another part of the world and jail them. Imagine if Saudi, Russia or China tried to do this? It would be a violation of international law. The US does not get a 'free pass' to violate international law. Britain and the rest of the world must stand up against the bullying and legal abuse of their citizens. If not, just make it official and become another state of the US. Radha Stirling, CEO of Due Process International who is assisting Mr Emms said "There are at least two objectives in the US case against Chris Emms, and sanctions against North Korea are only tertiary to those objectives. America, along with most Western governments, is increasingly interested in commandeering the cryptocurrency sphere for the introduction of CBDCs – digital money issued and controlled by the Federal Reserve and central banks. This necessitates the gradual elimination of independent cryptocurrencies, as well as establishing control over the blockchain and all mechanisms of digital transactions. Anyone who is involved in developing, distributing, or promoting technologies that enhance privacy or crypto autonomy, is likely to find themselves under pressure. In relation to this, the US is attempting to assume global jurisdiction over all issues pertaining to cryptocurrency, regardless of where a transaction or interaction takes place, and regardless of the nationalities of those involved. To this end, American authorities are trying to creatively expand the legal applicability of the IEEPA to non-US persons; and they are doing it in Chris’s case through blatant intimidation". #FreeChrisEmms #FreeAssange #StateHarassment http://www.dueprocess.international http://www.detainedindubai.org http://www.bitclan.org http://www.radhastirling.com
