Fichier des personnes recherchées
Fichier des personnes recherchées (French pronunciation: [fiʃje de pɛʁsɔn ʁəʃɛʁʃe], "File of Wanted People"), or FPR, is a French database of criminals and wanted people run by the French Interior Ministry and used by the national police and other law enforcement agencies in France.
About
[edit | edit source]The FPR began as a paper filing system in 1969, and it included criminals ranging from mafia members to escaped prisoners.[1] The file is also consulted during applications for a national identity card, a passport, a residency card of a visa.[2]
In 1995, the FPR was expanded to include missing people and abducted children.[3]
Each file contains:[2]
- identity of the person sought;
- physical description and photograph if available;
- reason for the search;
- instructions in case a wanted person is discovered.
The FPR contained 620,000 records as of 14 November 2018.[2][4]
