'Blue Corner Notice' issued against Prajwal

NT Correspondent

Bengaluru: Karnataka Home Minister Dr G Parameshwara on Sunday said a Blue Corner notice has been issued and Interpol's help is being taken to bring NDA's Hassan Lok Sabha candidate Prajwal Revanna, who is facing sexual harassment cases, back to India.

A Blue Corner Notice is issued by the international police cooperation body to collect additional information from its member countries about a person's identity, location or activities in relation to a crime.

The Congress party kept up the attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the matter, asking him to break his 'silence' on the issue in which the BJP's alliance party leader is accused.

What does it mean?

A Blue Corner Notice is a part of Interpol's colour-coded notices that enable countries to share alerts and requests for information worldwide.

They are international requests for cooperation or alerts allowing police in member countries to share critical crime-related information.

There are seven types of notices - Red, Yellow, Blue, Black, Green, Orange, and Purple.

A Blue notice is served to collect additional information about a person's identity, location or activities in relation to a criminal investigation.
