The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) expressed hope that in the near future Interpol will place former Ukrainian high ranking officials on its red notice wanted list.

"They have a law bureau, which refers to the regulations of the organization [Interpol], which say that the organization does not have the right to interfere in cases of religious, military or in other humanitarian matters," the head of the chief investigative department of SBU Vasyl Vovk said on Friday, December 5.

Commenting on delays with putting former Ukrainian high ranking officials on the wanted list, he said that they are registered in the Interpol database, but they do not have a red notice, which means that an individual is on the international wanted list.

"Believe me that we'll see this in the near future," Vovk said.
