etsittävästä

Etsittävä is a Finnish term that translates to "wanted" or "person sought" in English. It is commonly used in legal contexts, particularly by law enforcement agencies and the courts. When an individual is designated as etsittävä, it signifies that they are being actively searched for by authorities. This status can arise for various reasons, such as an outstanding arrest warrant, a need to question them in relation to a crime, or to serve legal documents.

The term is often seen in official police communications and media reports concerning individuals who are evading apprehension or whose whereabouts are unknown but are of interest to law enforcement. The designation of etsittävä does not necessarily imply guilt, but rather indicates a need to locate the individual. Law enforcement agencies may release descriptions and images of etsittävä persons to the public to solicit assistance in their apprehension. The process of locating and apprehending an etsittävä person is a part of ongoing investigations and legal proceedings.
