Two Irishmen feature on Interpol’s Most Wanted List, it was revealed yesterday.
The international police organisation recently issued “red notices” for Dubliner James Staurvik and Conor Vincent D’Monte. A red notice is a request to law enforcements worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action.
The two men are wanted in connection with alleged murder/manslaughter and conspiracy to commit murder. Interpol’s website currently shows there are a total of 7,109 public red notices in circulation.

James Staurvik, 39, from Dublin is wanted by police in the Netherlands over his alleged role in the murder of Dutch man Adam Sawaryn Radowslag, who was 31. He was killed at his home in the town of Mijdrecht on October 7, 2011.
Staurvik became a prime suspect after several witnesses claim they saw the two men argue shortly before Mr Radowslag’s death. According to his red notice, Staurvik speaks both Irish and English.
Meanwhile, 44-year-old Conor Vincent D'Monte faces one count of first degree murder and three counts conspiracy to commit murder in Canada. D'Monte is also an Irish national, and he was a fugitive for 11 years before he was arrested in Puerto Rico last year.
D'Monte had been living there for years under the alias Johnny Williams, volunteering for a charity and playing beach tennis almost daily. He was known to have used at least four aliases during his time as on the run, and was also known to have had his tattoos removed in a bid to avoid detection.
He was also wanted over his alleged role in the 2009 shooting of Kevin LeClair. Sources said LeClair was a gangster in the organised criminal mob the Red Scorpions, who are based in British Columbia in Canada.
D’Monte, an alleged member of the feared United Nations gang, also faces charges of plotting to kill two other gang members.
