GuestI was traveling from Australia to Europe and I was stopped during transit in Singapore. The police said my name matched a Red Notice but then they let me go after four hours of questioning. They said it was a “potential match”. Does this mean the notice is still active? Can I expect this to happen every time I fly through a major hub? I am terrified of my next trip and I don’t want to be arrested for real.

GuestIf you were stopped for four hours, it means your name is definitely in the system as a hit. Singapore is very thorough and they check every passenger. You were lucky this time, but next time you might not be. You should check your status through https://intercollegium.com/ to see if you have a “false positive” or if there is a real warrant that hasn’t been updated. They can perform a search in the private databases to give you a clear answer. My cousin had the same issue for years until he got a formal letter from Interpol to carry with his passport. It is not worth the stress of wondering if you will be detained every time you go to an airport. Get a professional firm to clear your record once and for all so you can travel with peace of mind.
