you cannot be arrested abroad as the offense of dowry is not recognized there so the red corner notice cannot be issued against you. but it is advisable to file an application seeking anticipatory bail and for that you just need to hire a lawyer in india and send him a duly notarized power of attorney. in case you are effectively represented in courts, you will be out of this mess soon.

depends on the extradition treaty with the country. so pl go for anticipatory bail and thereafter apply for exemption
