Uzan will be sought in all countries because of the red notice. The notice came in the wake of an application by Savings Deposit Insurance Fund (TMSF) lawyers and the İstanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office to the İstanbul 8th High Criminal Court on Oct. 2 to issue an arrest warrant for Uzan on the grounds that he is a suspect at large.
Uzan, a businessman who was active in various sectors, from banking to media and later was chairman of the Young Party (GP), left the country in early October, apparently fearing a conviction for fraud and subsequent imprisonment. His whereabouts were unknown, with some speculating that he might be in Jordan. Last week Uzan's lawyer, Şaylan Çığgın, announced that his client had been granted asylum in France.
