Japan Escalates Politically Motivated Attacks Upon Eco-Hero Captain Paul Watson and Sea Shepherd

Interpol Issues Second ‘Red Notice’ for Sea Shepherd Founder and Renowned Marine Conservationist

Captain Paul Watson

FRIDAY HARBOR, Wash. — September 16, 2012 — Interpol reports it has issued a second ‘red notice’ to its member nations for Captain Paul Watson — iconic marine conservationist and founder of Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, and focus of the hit docu-reality TV series “Whale Wars.” This notice was issued at Japan’s request and was clearly filed in retribution for the eco-hero and his nonprofit’s successful interventions against Japanese whaling in an established, internationally designated whale sanctuary.
