The INTERPOL National Central Bureau (NCB) in Pretoria, at the heart of the South African Police Service (SAPS), continues to record commendable successes in dismantling transnational crime syndicates and arresting international fugitives in the country.
This week, the INTERPOL NCB Pretoria Extradition team arrested a 57-year-old Chinese fugitive who is reportedly linked to a case of fraud reported in China.
According to a preliminary report, INTERPOL circulated a Red Notice to all member countries to locate and provisionally arrest the Chinese national.
Wanted persons often flee to another country to evade their arrest.
The suspect reportedly applied for a VISA at the United States of America embassy in Sandton when his fugitive status was flagged, leading to his arrest on Tuesday, 22 July 2025.
The suspect made his first appearance in the Randburg Magistrates Court on Wednesday, 23 July 2025.
