  + stars: | 2024-02-20 | by ( Jane Bradley | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Interpol is the world’s largest police organization. It serves as a powerful bulletin board that governments and law enforcement agencies use to team up to pursue fugitives across the globe. Here are some of the ways countries can exploit Interpol:Red NoticesInterpol’s red notice, the closest thing to an international arrest warrant, has long been dogged by controversy. And William F.

  + stars: | 2024-02-20 | by ( Jane Bradley | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
For years, strongmen and autocrats had a novel weapon in their hunt for political enemies. They used Interpol, the world’s largest police organization, to reach across borders and grab them — even in democracies. In response, Interpol has toughened oversight of its arrest alerts, known as red notices, making it harder than ever to misuse them. Abuse of this important antiterrorism tool got so bad that Interpol temporarily blocked Turkey from using it. Belarus is now subject to special monitoring after Interpol spotted a wave of politically motivated entries, officials said.

So, the duchy raised rents? Records show that the Duchy raised rents by 3 percent over the last fiscal year, which is just below the pace of private rental increases that have contributed to a cost-of-living crisis. Private rents are increasing at their fastest rate on record across the United Kingdom, though the official figures only go back to 2016. The Duchy said that “refurbishment and restoration” had led to “improved rental values.”Of course, Charles is not a typical landlord. Standards of living are falling as wages fail to keep pace with rising housing and food costs.
