Police warn public not to approach offender who ditched electronic tag in south London

Police are warning members of the public not to approach a dangerous offender who has gone on the run in south London.

Nasar Mohammed Hussein, 33, was released from jail on licence.

But he removed his electronic tag and left an address in Camberwell on Thursday.

In June last year Hussein, also known as Nasser Hussein, was convicted of possession of an offensive weapon and assault on an emergency worker.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: “Officers are appealing for the public’s help in locating a man wanted on recall to prison.

“He has links to Hounslow, Camberwell, Clapham and the Finsbury Park area.

“For an immediate sighting please do not approach him, but dial 999.”

Anyone who may have seen Hussein, or has information as to his whereabouts, is asked to call 101, ref 4758/24FEB24.
