What were Ezedi’s last known movements?

Manhunt cops say Ezedi’s car was seen in Newcastle at quarter past midnight on Wednesday.

By 6.30am the car was seen travelling into Tooting, south west London.

A further sighting of his car was confirmed in Croydon at 4.30pm and Ezedi was seen driving in Streatham at 7pm.

The attack on a 31-year-old woman, and her daughters, aged three and eight, took place in Lessar Avenue in Clapham at 7.25pm that night.

The mum is believed to be known to Ezedi, cops said.

Ezedi made off in his car but it crashed nearby. He then left the vehicle and ran off.

At 7.33pm Ezedi boarded a Northern line train at Clapham South Tube station.

Ezedi got off at King’s Cross just before 8pm.

He was seen on CCTV leaving a Tesco Express at 21 Caledonian Road, near King’s Cross, and turning right.

The suspect had significant facial injuries and is believed to have bought a bottle of water.

Ezedi re-entered King’s Cross Tube station at 9pm and boarded a southbound Victoria line train.

The latest confirmed sighting of Ezedi is now on Southwark Bridge at 9.47pm on Wednesday.

The suspect has not been seen since.

Does Ezedi have a criminal record?

Ezedi was convicted of a sexual offence in 2018 and given a suspended sentence at Newcastle Crown Court.

The Crown Prosecution Service confirmed he was sentenced on January 9 of that year after pleading guilty to one charge of sexual assault and one of exposure.

He was put on the Sex Offenders Register for 10 years.

Why was Ezedi given asylum in the UK?

Ezedi was granted asylum in 2020 on his third attempt – after he was convicted of the sex offence.

He reportedly arrived in the UK on the back of a lorry in 2016 and claimed to have converted to Christianity to back up his asylum bid.

A priest told the Telegraph that Ezedi had converted to Christianity and was “wholly committed” to his new religion.

What happened to Ezedi’s face?

CCTV from Wednesday night shows Ezedi with what police have described as very “significant injuries to the right side of his face”.

Met Police Commander Jon Savell addressed him directly, saying: “Abdul, you clearly have got some very significant injuries.

“We’ve seen the images. You need some medical help, so do the right thing and hand yourself in.”
