The search for Abdul Shokoor Ezedi
It was a vicious attack in a wealthy, residential area of south London. The suspect is still at large a week after the attack, despite a nationwide police search.
It was a vicious attack - in a wealthy, residential area of south London. A week on – it’s still not clear why a mother and her two daughters were the target of a corrosive liquid attack in Clapham. In the hours that followed, police named the suspect as Abdul Shokoor Ezedi.
There have been sightings of the 35 year old on CCTV in London and Newcastle – and now a £20,000 reward is in place for information leading to his arrest. Hundreds of officers are involved in the search.
Police say they’re using all their resources to try to find the suspect – but what does that involve? And why – in an age when there are cameras in every street – is it so difficult to find a man with a serious facial injury; someone whose name and picture has been widely published, printed and broadcast.
