We understand from reporting from Prague, where Mr Muslim was arrested on 24 February, that the arrest was made under a "red notice" submitted to the Czech authorities via Interpol by the Turkish government, rather than through a European Arrest Warrant. We note that Mr Muslim was released without charge on 27 February and is free to carry on his travels.
