Abstract: 

On November 28, 2022, the media reported that the Angolan government has requested that Interpol issue a Red Notice against Isabel dos Santos, the daughter of Angola’s former president and ex-billionaire, in connection with the corruption investigation that is continuing.[1]  On November 30, Interpol confirmed it has issued a Red Notice. Although no criminal charges have been filed yet, Angolan prosecutors are investigating her of causing more than $5 billion in losses to Angola during her father’s  administration.[2]
