Achieving British Citizenship and Interpol Red Notice Removal for Mr A

The Challenges Faced

Mr A, from a prominent Bahraini family in education and property, faced political persecution, false criminal charges, and a 5-year in-absentia sentence. After relocating to the UK via the Tier 1 Investor route, his 2024 citizenship application was rejected due to this conviction, with an active Interpol Red Notice adding complexity.

How Latitude Law Helped

Our expert team, with deep international law expertise, secured Mr A’s 2014 international protection claim to protect him from an international warrant. In 2024, we drafted a compelling submission for his citizenship reconsideration, emphasizing the political nature of his charges. Following a Home Office rejection, our strategic judicial review advice and pre-action letter prompted reconsideration. Concurrently, we successfully removed the Interpol Red Notice through a precise Access Deletion Request to Lyon, expertly navigating CCF procedures.

Outcome

Mr A gained British citizenship without litigation, is applying for his first passport, and had the Red Notice cancelled. He continues managing a major UK property portfolio and IT business.
