Police officers are 'growing increasingly concerned' for missing Sunderland teenager Mohamed Ahmadzai.
The 16-year-old left an address in the Claremont Terrace area of the city last Thursday, June 30, morning and is thought to have intended to travel to Manchester to see a friend. However, he has not been seen since and police are growing increasingly concerned for his welfare.
It is believed that Mohamed may have travelled to Manchester – or possibly another area of the UK, as he also has links to London and Brighton.

Officers want to make sure Mohamed is safe and well – and are today appealing to the public for help in their search for him. A range of enquiries are being carried out across Wearside and other areas of the country in a bid to find him.
Mohamed is described as having dark hair and brown eyes, of slim build, and was last seen wearing a black jacket and grey tracksuit bottoms.
Anyone who has any information about his whereabouts is asked to contact police via the ‘Tell Us Something’ page of their website or by calling 101 quoting log NP-20220630-0973.
