D. Green Notice	4. To identify and trace criminal assets

Select an option to attempt

Explanation

The INTERPOL uses a colour-coded system of notices to enable countries to share alerts and requests for information worldwide. The correct matching of the notices with their descriptions is as follows:

Silver Notice: It is a recently introduced intelligence tool designed specifically to identify, monitor, and trace illicit criminal assets across international borders. (A matches 4)

Blue Notice: It is issued to collect additional information about a person’s identity, location, or activities in relation to an ongoing criminal investigation. Unlike a Red Notice, it does not request the provisional arrest of the individual. (B matches 2)

Black Notice: It is used to seek information on unidentified bodies. It functions primarily as a humanitarian and forensic tool to help establish the identity of deceased persons found across international borders. (C matches 1)

Green Notice: It is issued to provide warnings and share intelligence about individuals who have committed criminal offences and are considered a possible threat to public safety in other countries. (D matches 3)

Therefore, the correct matching is A-4, B-2, C-1, D-3, which corresponds to Option C.
