Intern­ationa­l police term sons of former premie­r as 'politi­cally expose­d person­alitie­s'Interpol has refused to issue red warrants for the arrest and extradition of former prime minister Nawaz Shairf’s sons Hassan and Hussain Nawaz. Interpol, while rejecting the Federal Investigation Agency’s request, stated that the Hassan and Hussain are politically exposed personalities, hence their red warrants can not be issued, Express News reported on Sunday. The FIA has also informed the interior ministry and high officials in this regard. Subsequently, the FIA submitted an application to the Interpol headquarters in France with the request to issue red warrant of Hassan and Hussain. The National Accountability Bureau had also sought the help of the interior ministry for the arrest of both brothers.
