Yerlikaya previously stated that hundreds of internationally wanted suspects have been returned to Türkiye during the current government’s term. In one recent case, five Red Notice fugitives were detained in Georgia and extradited to Türkiye. Another high-profile return involved Erkan Yılmaz, a crime-group leader arrested in Armenia who was wanted on 43 national and international warrants.

These operations are typically coordinated between the Interior Ministry, the Ministry of Justice and Interpol’s National Central Bureau in Ankara. Turkish officials emphasise that the increased pace of extraditions reflects the country’s determination to confront transnational organised crime and ensure that suspects wanted for serious offences face justice in Türkiye.
