Mark Buddle closer to being deported back to Australia after red notice issued

Exiled Comanchero boss Mark Buddle is closer to being deported to Australia after authorities issued a red notice for his arrest.

Detained Comanchero boss Mark Buddle is set to be extradited back to Australia after a red notice was issued for his arrest, according to reports in Turkish newspapers.

Buddle, who was arrested in North Cyprus earlier this month, has been held in a high-security prison in the Turkish capital of Ankara for the past 18 days.

There has been speculation that Buddle may have to pay a massive fee to stay in the country, but according to Turkish journalists the government is close to finalising his deportation.

At the time of his dramatic arrest in a top secret mission, which Buddle later revealed involved seven cops who came through the window of his home in the beachside area of Iskele, he was only the subject of Interpol Blue Notice, which sends alerts to the home country of the subject when they cross international borders documenting their whereabouts.

The police operation involved the Turkish Security Forces Command, the General Directorate of Police, the Turkish Coast Guard on the orders of the Interior Ministry.

The Turkish Government has been ridding the country of unwanted foreigners who are a risk to safety and peace, including alleged crime and underworld figures.

When Buddle was grabbed there was no international arrest warrant for him in place and it is understood he was attempting to buy his own plane ticket out of the country to Jordan.

But Turkish newspapers are now reporting the government has confirmed Buddle is the subject of a Red Notice, which is an arrest warrant and he will be deported.

When contacted for comment the NSW Police said it was a matter for the Australian Federal Police.

A spokeswoman said: “The AFP has no comment.”

Interpol has been contacted for comment.

It comes as Buddle’s ex-partner former Sydney woman Mel Ter Wisscha, the mother of his children, remains in an immigration detention centre in southwestern Turkey.

Buddle with former partner Mel Ter Wisscha.

Ms Ter Wisscha, was living 500km away in a posh suburb in Bitez near the seaside resort of Bodrum in southwestern Turkey.

Official sources have said she was travelling in a taxi between her home and the resort city when she was stopped by police and detained. It is understood she is considered a foreigner who poses a risk to public order or security because of her links to her ex partner.

Ms Ter Wisscha is being held in a detention centre which is surrounded by armed guards.

It is understood her family have arrived to support her and are using visits of 15 minutes a day to drop off fresh clothes.

Ms Ter Wisscha has told The Daily Telegraph she and Buddle are separated and she has not seen him for a year. She said their children see him but she doesn’t.

She has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing.
