Some are wanted in connection with drug offences, while others are on the run from a lengthy murder sentence, or facing charges of terrorism.

Interpol, or the International Criminal Police Organization to give it its full name, is an the inter-governmental organisation that links police work across nearly 200 countries.

It issues Red Notices to fugitives who are either facing charges abroad, or are awaiting punishment for a crime they committed.

There are over 7,000 people worldwide who have Red Notices served on them by Interpol - and these are the 14 who are known to be from the UK.
