Hypothetically, how would someone know there was a warrant out for their arrest in another country? That doesn’t seem like public information.

I figure most cyber criminals assume they are untraceable until they get arrested.

I got a speeding ticket in Colorado on a business trip and later moved clients and thought to myself “meh I just won’t pay it I won’t be back to Colorado any time soon” and I was stopping entering the country on a trip from the Caribbean for “outstanding warrants”. If I can get stopped for that they should know if they have real criminal charges to not play around.

In this particular case the person arrested had been very publicly indicted years ago and was most certainly aware.

Is “interpol” public information?

There are many sellers on .ru language darknet forums offering Interpol and Schengen information system lookups. In many countries every single police officer has access to this, it's not very hard to corrupt one person when the only requirement is that they be any police officer.

If you have friends in the FSB, yes.
