Financial Times reported on September 19 that the South Korean government requested Interpol to issue a red alert notice for Do Kwon, founder of Terra.
The report claimed that the South Korean prosecutors requested to revoke Kwon’s South Korean passport due to his supposed unwillingness to cooperate and that he was still “on the run.”
It was reported that Kwon’s attorney informed the prosecution that his client would not reply to the summons right away.
On September 14, South Korea issued a warrant for Kwon’s arrest.
In April, Kwon shut down Terraform Labs’ office in South Korea and moved to Singapore. Kwon, however, was discovered to have left the nation as of September by the local police. The police department pledged to help South Korea find the Terra founder.
South Korean prosecutors stated that they are working hard on their hunt for him and have “begun the procedure to place him on the Interpol red notice list and revoke his passport.”
The Interpol website explained that a red notice is a worldwide law enforcement request to “locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal actions.” This means that Kwon would be added to the wanted list of 195 countries.
Although the Terra founder is stated to be uncooperative, he asserted that he was not “on the run” on Twitter.
