Answer: (c) A-4, B-2, C-1, D-3

  1. INTERPOL's Silver Notice (launched in pilot phase in 2025) is issued to identify and trace criminal assets (A-4), and a Blue Notice collects additional information about a person's identity, location, or activities in relation to a criminal investigation (B-2).
  2. A Black Notice seeks information on unidentified bodies (C-1), and a Green Notice provides warnings and intelligence about persons who have committed criminal offences and are likely to repeat them in other countries (D-3).
  3. So A-4, B-2, C-1, D-3, which is code (c).
