Police Colonel Chairit Anurit, Commander of Immigration Division 3, ordered an investigation team to carry out the arrest of Daniel K., a 33-year-old Finnish criminal wanted on an INTERPOL’s Red Notice for serious crimes in Norway.

After continuous investigation and tracking, authorities were able to clearly identify the suspect’s residence and successfully planned and executed his arrest.

Serious Criminal Background

Norwegian authorities consider Daniel a dangerous criminal who poses a significant threat to public safety. He is wanted for three major felony cases that have prompted international manhunt efforts.

The charges against him include his alleged role in a brutal murder that shocked the town of Kongsvinger in November 2024.

Additionally, he operated an extensive drug trafficking network in the same region, manufacturing and distributing narcotics while working with organized crime groups to transport large shipments across the Swedish-Norwegian border using automobiles.

Police Colonel Chairit revealed that this operation was carried out according to orders from the National Police Chief, emphasizing the government’s urgent policy to crack down on transnational criminals.

This action aims to prevent and suppress foreign nationals who disguise themselves and infiltrate the country to commit crimes that threaten public peace and national security. Serious enforcement will help maintain the country’s image and build confidence in law enforcement.
