Nonsense. If you read your own link red notices are simply issued for wanted criminals likely to flee to another country; what crime was committed is largely irrelevant.

This is opposed to yellow notices, which are for missing persons.

According to the rules of Interpol, it should only be used for serious crimes. There should be some kind of non-exhaustive list, but it's probably not public.

Also important to add that red notices themselves are not arrest warrants. People get that confused.
