South Korea said Interpol requested law enforcement worldwide to locate and arrest fugitive Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon.

(Bloomberg) — South Korea said Interpol requested law enforcement worldwide to locate and arrest fugitive Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon.

Prosecutors in Seoul said Monday the international police organization has issued a Red Notice for Kwon. He faces charges in South Korea related to the $60 billion wipeout of cryptocurrencies he created.

Officials have accused Kwon and five others of crimes including breaches of capital-markets law. Kwon earlier this year moved from South Korea to Singapore, where his now collapsed Terraform Labs had a base, but his location became unclear after the city-state on Sept. 17 said he’s no longer there.
