Iran issues arrest warrant for Trump over killing of Soleimani; Interpol rejects request for help
ktla ^ | Jun 29, 2020

Tehran prosecutor Ali Alqasimehr said Trump and 35 others whom Iran accuses of involvement in the Jan. 3 strike that killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad face “murder and terrorism charges,” the state-run IRNA news agency reported.

Alqasimehr did not identify anyone else sought other than Trump, but stressed that Iran would continue to pursue his prosecution even after his presidency ends.

Alqasimehr also was quoted as saying that Iran requested a “red notice” be put out for Trump and the others, which represents the highest-level arrest request issued by Interpol. Local authorities generally make the arrests on behalf of the country that requests it. The notices cannot force countries to arrest or extradite suspects, but can put government leaders on the spot and limit suspects’ travel.

After receiving a request, Interpol meets by committee and discusses whether or not to share the information with its member states. Interpol has no requirement for making any of the notices public, though some do get published on its website.

Interpol later issued a statement saying its guidelines for notices forbids it from “any intervention or activities of a political” nature.

Man, that legal and justified elimination of the terror general responsible for 100s of American service member deaths really sticks in the craw of the pedophile worshipping sand monkeys.

It must have really made an impression.

Iran started a war against the United States in 1979 by attacking the US Embassy. A military commander is a legitimate target.

Iran put an arrest warrant out on Trump for that? I was just about to send him a belated Thank You card.

They should also seek the cooperation of the UN. I would love to see the blue helmets trying to get to the White House to enforce the arrest warrant.

“Tehran prosecutor Ali Alqasimehr” just became uninsurable.

President Trump should be awarded an international honor for ridding the world of its chief murderer.

UN Peace Prize is spoken for. It goes posthumously to Pol Pot, I think.
