30/05/2013 Crimewatch Update

a busy night. There is lots to tell you about. Let's begin with a

reminder of the murder a month ago of 82-year-old Mohammed Saleem in

the area of Birmingham. He 28 years old. Attacked from

behind. Stabbed brutally. He was killed. There was no way he could

defend himself -- he was 82 years old. We have to find out so at that

we can grieve properly as a family. Find out who did this and why he did

it in such a nasty and a brute a -- brutal way.

Now, Detective Superintendent Mark Payne how have we been doing?

we have had very interesting calls. Some anonymous calls as well. It is

reimportant important there for them to know that we will take care of

them. We need to get this man who did this off the streets.

Now. A year ago, this man was at home when three men burst into his

apartment and attacked him. They attacked him in a sustained and

extremely violent attack. They stabbed him many times. He died in

his hallway. Now, this was an horrific crime?

was an horrific case. They were at home on the 14th of May about 9.

30pm. Sharif answered the front door, he was confronted by three

men, all wearing hoodies, carrying knives. He attacked him. Stabbing

him many times. As he lay dying he demanded jewellery and cash from his

terrified partner. She herself was stabbed. She got medical treatment

and fortunately survived. You have CCTV, what does it show?

have CCTV from Vineyard Way itself. You can see the men walk walking

away. We can see them three minutes later, they are moving away in the

direction that they came from. I believe that the three men are

responsible for the vicious assault on Sharif. If anyone has

information, please contact us. An awful crime if you recognise

these men in the CCTV or have information, call us here in in the

studio just now. Now, we appealed in relation to the 17-year-old Georgia

Williams, missing from her family home since last Sunday. We have had

several calls to the studio. Relating to sightings of the van in

the relevant areas. We have passed this on to the investigating team.

Anyone with further information should call the Incident Room on:

Now let's return to the terrifying attack on a woman as she drove off a

petrol forecourt in Dunstable, one evening in February.

As I got to the ramp, I was watching the traffic in the main road. Then I

saw a man in a blackjack et coming towards my car.

No! Oh, my God. Drive!I grabbed for the knife. I managed to get the

handle. I thought if I did not let go, he could not hurt me.

Well, Detective Inspector Ruth Dodsworth, you have had good

responses tonight? Excellent response. Lots of calls giving a

name based on the attacker, based on the description.

That is great news. We should remind people of this important bit of

evidence he left on the scene? We are keen to hear of anyone who

knows of someone who owns Startex condoms.

So, very important. Distinctive. Now, the huge rise in mobile phone

theft. He said give me your phone and

wallet. I was pushed against the window, I am pretty sure. He grabbed

the phone from my hands and started hitting me. The level of the crime,

the way I was punched did not equate to what he got out of it.

Well, DCI -- DCI Bob Mahoney from the National Mobile Phone Crime Unit

is here again. A vicious assault. We have had good information? Six or

seven calls. One of which is interesting. We are following that

up as soon as possible. We are lucky in the case. We have a very good

image of the attacker. Anyone who recognises him, we urge you to ring

into us. The attack took place on a train going from Waterloo to Putney.

Somebody on the train saw what happened. We need them to get in

touch with us as well. It goes to show that the phones are stolen and

they are creating very violent crimes.

Now, John Archer Barnett, the convicted paedophile. Lots of calls,

texts and e-mails. Some of them placed in the area of Kent. Wanted

was Robert Mark Knight. Including some sighting as early as today.

All interest. That is all for now. Details of the cases are all on the
