( CNN ) -- Joran van der Sloot , who authorities say has confessed to the murder of a Peruvian woman , faces criminal charges in Alabama because he tried to extort $ 250,000 from Natalee Holloway 's mother , according to an Interpol document . U.S. authorities last week announced an arrest warrant for van der Sloot on charges of extortion and wire fraud , but they did not name the victim . In an Interpol document obtained by CNN Wednesday , American authorities ask Peruvian police to arrest van der Sloot and begin a process of extradition to the United States . The document states that Peruvian authorities can hold him if he is facing charges there . According to the document , around March 29 , van der Sloot contacted a representative of Holloway 's mother , Beth Holloway . The Dutch citizen , who was twice arrested in connection with the disappearance of Natalee Holloway but released for lack of evidence , said he would reveal the location of the body and the circumstances surrounding her death for $ 25,000 in cash . He asked for $ 250,000 in total , the document states . Van der Sloot and Beth Holloway 's representative met in Aruba , where a payment of $ 10,000 was made to him , followed by a transfer of $ 15,000 to a personal bank account in the Netherlands , the document states . In exchange , van der Sloot showed the representative a house where supposedly Holloway 's remains were , according to the document .
