15/12/2011 Crimewatch

Tonight, the 15-year-old schoolboy attacked out of the blue by a

complete stranger. Boy, come over here. Mo. He suffered 90% brain

damage and will never recover. Knowing how lively he was, it seems

absolutely desperately sad. Every parent expects their child to be

pushing them around in their wheelchair. So who did it? Welcome

Crimewatch. We're going bring you the appalling case of Mo Bourner in

a mo.. First, a quick look at -- Mo Bourner. Jim Morrison was stabbed

after chasing a thief through Covent Garden in 1991. It seems

awful that somebody is still out there that has committed a murder

and is walking around having a life. And Rav is here with the wanted

faces. Yeah people wanted for murder fraud

and drug dealing and unbelievable CCTV, including this new footage of

the summer riots in London, showing terrified staff at a money exchange

literally fleing from a mob of looters.

Police in Essex need your help to catch whoever has been throwing

rocks from road bridges, causing serious injuries to motorists. And

Matthew will have the latest news on cases solved thanks to your call.

Including this man from our last show, who having robbed a string of

bookies was spotted by a viewer and has already been sentenced to six-

and-a-half years in prison. And I bet there are lots of people who'd

love to see something like this waiting for them on their Christmas

morning, but can you help to track down the thieves who've stolen

�30,000 worth of similar model railway from a museum.

We start tonight with the completely unprovoked, but

devastating attack on 15-year-old schoolboy, Mo Bourner. It happened

in Bexhill in East Sussex. It happened on the Hallowe'en weekend.

After six weeks in a coma, he is now in a stable condition in

hospital, but has lost 90% of his brain function. He'll never be the

He's really, really lovely boy, kind, such a beautiful young man,

looking forward to life. He's a very well known, popular lad. He

doesn't wish harm on anybody ever in his life. He's peace loving. He

likes to go out and enjoy himself. Weed we'd go off on his BMX and

he'd do a crazy stunt. I'd have my heart in my mouth. But he'd be up

there, so fearless. To then see him laying there, being kept alive and

knowing how lively he was, it seems 15-year-old Mo Bourner's life has

changed forever, following a violent and completely unprovoked

attack. I now urgently need to trace the man who with a single

punch has taken away Mo's future and left his family feeling utterly

devastated. The last week I was with him was

half term. He was down from London for this week staying with me here

on the farm. He was helping me take a fence down and he was working

really hard. He was using all the tools, as hide shown him. He was a

boy, but he was coming into being a young man and I had a glimpse of

what he was going to be like for his future life. He was really

looking forward to go to the beach party with his friends. The last

thing he gave me a big thumbs up. "Dad I love you. I'll give you a

ring later tonight, when we're through with the party and you can

I've been friends with Mo for three, four years now, ever since I met

him, he's always been there. I've always been there for him. It's a

two-way friendship. It was a very lively atmosphere. Me and Mo and

about ten other people rapping round the fire. It was starting to

get a bit late. I said I'd better go home. He said, see you later

mate. Get home safe and that, he said, yeah I will. I assumed he

would get home all right. I left. At about midnight Mo and a group of

his friends decided to go back towards the town centre, where he

was planning on calling his father to pick him up. Boy, come over here.

I'll go and see what he wants. You've got a problem. I don't have

a problem. Someone needs to teach you a lesson. Mo! With that one

punch, Mo was knocked backwards, hitting his head on the car and

then the pavement and left with severe head injuries. The attacker

then ran off towards the centre of Bexhill and may well have spent the

rest of the evening in local bars. I'm convinced he would have told

others about what he'd just done. It's those people I need to come

forward tonight. It went past midnight and I thought, well, maybe

he's with a friend and he'd give me a ring soon. The next thing I know

was any parent's worst nightmare. Straight into the A&E. There he was,

recognisable, but only just because he had so many pipes and tubes,

full life support. He was in such a serious condition. Many people

don't realise a single punch can have devastating conconstituencies.

We've done a detailed brain scan on Mo. The brain is still very swollen.

Areas of the brain whiter than the rest are deeply injured brain cells

that will go on to die. He was being fed through a tube and

has not shown purposeful movement. The Mo that his family knew before

will never come back. Every parent expects their child to be pushing

them around in their wheelchair W him, we've just got to be strong

for him. Any mother watching this will

understand what I mean, to be a mother and, you know, your child

going through that, I wish that happened to me, not Mohammed.

heart breaking. DCI Nick Sloan from Surrey and Sussex major crime team

is leading the investigation. This was a fine, decent young boy, about

to start sitting his GCSEs. Devastating for the family,

obviously. Let's go to the facts, what do we know about the attacker?

What do -- where do we think he went? He was tacked by a stranger

in his early to mid-20s. Having punched Mo he ran into the town

centre, down brassy Road. There he spent the rest of the evening in

bars and clubs. He may have confided in someone about what he'd

just done. Now, it might be that those people don't realise just how

serious, just how life shattering that assault was and if they were

spoken to that night, if they heard something, I need them to come

forward and tell me the truth. Those are the people you need to

talk to, those people who are watching tonight might think if

this bloke is capable of that, I'm worried about my own safety. What

can you say to reassure them? can offer them reassurance and

anonymity. They can have confidence and come forward to talk to us.

Thank you very much. That appeal to come forward goes to

the person who threw the punch. You may not have intended to cause such

a serious injury. If you think you can help, whoever you are, I would

urge you please to call now. You saw what happened: Or call

Crimestoppers, and do that anonymously.

Now the first batch of wanted faces. We start with this guy, Mohammed

Tariq. He's wanted in connection with the murder of a man after a

suspected road rage incident in Derby in August. The 26-year-old

uses the name Tariq Rafiq as well. Number two is this fella, Gavin

Carabini. Police want to speak to him about a burglary at the home of

an 84-year-old widow during which jewellery worth more than �12,000

was taken. He uses the alias Robert Murray has links to Dublin,

Llanelli, Liverpool and Carlisle. He's considered to be dangerous. If

you see him call the police. Number three is this guy, this is Nisar

Dad. He's wanted for assaulting a partner. He has links to London,

Leeds and Birmingham. Then Robert Taylor-Barefoot. He's a convicted

fraudster who coned people out of almost �250,000, which he used to

fund his lavish lifestyle. The 33- year-old, who had a tribal tattoo

on his left arm, has linked to Shropshire, Surrey, London,

Australia. All of tonight's faces are on the website. If you know

where they are please call: You can also text. This week marks the 2078

anniversary of the brutal murder of a police officer in Covent Garden.

Detective Constable Jim Morrison was off duty when he tried to stop

a bag thief. His sense of duty may have ult muttly cost him his --

One thing that he wouldn't ever do would be to turn a blind eye and

walk away. That wasn't in his character to do that. Christmas in

Covent Garden in London's glittering West End can be a

magical time. But it was here, two decades ago, that a promising young

police officer thought nothing about his own safety, when, off

duty, he chase aid thief through these streets. Tragically his

heroic actions were to cost him his life. The murder of Detective

Constable Jim Morrison on December 13th, 1991, was headline news at

the time. ARCHIVE: Police are calling for

witnesss to the murder of an off duty detective... Despite the

efforts of police, his killer has never been caught. His family and

colleagues mourn the death of a pop already and well-liked man. I was

about 19, when we first met. We met in a bar. We hit it off and romance

and relationship blossomed from there. We had made plans for our

future. We had made plans about starting a family in a few years'

time, at that point. I came down from Scotland to join the police,

Jim had actually joined before me, about six months in front of me. We

just bonded straight away. It was a really good friendship. It kind of,

almost like a brother type set up, I would imagine. Christmas 1991,

we'd been married just over three years. We were making plans to go

up to spend Christmas with his family, which was the first

Christmas that we were both able to get the time from work to go up. So

we were quite looking forward to going away for a week or two. The

morning of the 13th was like any We both got ready. We had breakfast.

We both went to work. A member of the Metropolitan Police since 1983,

Jim had moved quickly from being a uniformed beat officer in Covent

Garden to his first role as a detective. He was incredibly

passionate about the job. He really believed completely in what he was

doing. He called me from work to say that he was going to go for a

drink after work, and he would be in around the same time as me.

MUSIC Jim was one of many people in

Covent Garden's pubs that night enjoying the festive season. A pint

of the usual, please. But while the majority were simply

having a good time, others were looking to take advantage of the

relaxed atmosphere. A group of thieves was targeting pub goers.

Jim was experienced at spotting this type of criminal, and it's

thought he came across one of these thieves on his way home.

What you got there, sir? I'm a police officer. You're coming with

me. OK. Stop. At the Transport Museum in Covent Garden, Jim was

spotted struggling with the bag snatcher.

He chased him towards the Aldwych. Put the knife down. Put the knife

It felt as if we'd been in the hospital for a long time before a

doctor came in and informed me of - of what had happened, and it was

fatal. Police launched a major investigation to help reach as many

people as possible. They also turned to Crimewatch. Taking calls

that night were Jim's friends and colleagues, including Detective

Inspector Dave Willis. The night of the appeal - that must have been a

difficult, difficult evening for you. Yes, we handle serious and

major crimes on a daily basis. Jim was a good friend of mine. When

your friend is stabbed in those circumstances, it's a horrific

thing to be investigating. But you did get good demfgs that night?

We established a woman who had her handbag stolen from the Maple Leaf.

This was a useful bit of information that took the inquiry

forward. Even now, 20 years on, we're desperate for information

that'll help us catch Jim's killer. It feels awful that somebody is

still out there who has committed a murder and is walking around having

a life. It's now 20 years since Detective

Constable Jim Morrison was killed here, where his memorial now stands,

but his killer is still at large. For the sake of his widow and his

family, if you know who did this, it's time to finally come forward.

I really miss his friendship and him being there, yeah, a big hole

in our life. Whenever somebody dies or is killed tragically like that

any time of year is going to be horrendous, but at Christmas, it

just felt, for me, very hard because it was Christmas, you know,

and I used to walk through Covent Garden and see the Christmas trees,

and just - and life goes on for everybody else, but you don't

really want it to. We're joined now by Detective Chief Inspector Amanda

Hargreaves. Given when this happened, around about

Christmastime this must have been a particularly difficult time of year

for Jim's family. Devastating, totally devastating, compounded by

the fact it was just before his birthday, just before Christmas,

truly devastating for everyone. you talk us through what happened

where. He tried to arrest the suspect outside the Transport

Museum. He ran off towards the Aldwych. Jim gave chase. The chase

ended up in Montreal Place where he was fatally stabbed. Of course, we

have to bear in mind this happened 20 years ago. Is it useful, though,

to give a description of the suspect? Yes, there were plenty of

people around that night. Witnesses describe the suspect as being

between 27 and 30 years of age, male, of North African, Algerian

appearance, about 5'10", short, dark hair with distinctive dark

curls at the front wearing a leather jacket. It's interesting

you and your team have been approached recently by potentially

important witnesses here. Yes, two callers have phoned into the

incident room. They have left numbers. When they tried -- we

tried to call back, we have had no answer. We'd like them to call

again. There is a substantial reward being offered.? �20,000

leading to the arrest and prosecution. We wish you and your

team the best tonight. Thank you. We saw there - it has

been 20 long years of waiting for Jim's widow. If you know anything,

tonight is the night to come forward. Call us now, 0500 600 600.

Now, Rav has got some CCTV for you to take a look at.

We start in Nottingham. Check out the guy in the sunglasses

as he waits in line at a Lloyds TSB bank on a Monday morning in July.

He approaches the counter and hands the cashier a note demanding money

and saying he's got a gun. Nonchalantly, he waits for his haul

branch of Lloyds in the City. He's still sporting his shades, and the

routine's the same. He approaches the counter and gets out his

shopping bags, then hands over the note, which again demands cash and

threatens he has a gun. There is a �25,000 reward for

information leading to his conviction. So can you name this

shady character tonight? A man and a woman enjoy a pizza as

they wait for a late-night train at Hackney central overground station

on a Friday night in August. As they sit chatting, a man wheeling a

mountain bike wheels his way towards the platform. Then, without

provocation, the cyclist knocks the pizza box on to the floor before

attacking the man, knocking him And even hitting him with his bike.

But the attacker then leaves the way he came. The victim suffered a

head wound and had to be taken to hospital. Tell us - who is this

This is a footpath in the town of Berkhamstead in September. A woman

has just walked past when a man attracts her attention, exposing

himself as he does. This isn't the first time he's done it. He has

been at it since March. If he wanted exposure, he certainly got

it now. Name, please. That footage is all on the website.

If you know who any of them are, call 0500 600 600 or text 63399.

OK. A quick appeal for information now on a case you may have seen in

the news. Police are investigating two incidents where pieces of rock

or concrete have been dropped from bridges on to cars on the A12 in

Essex. Both happened during the evening of Thursday, December the

1st. Now, during the first incident - it happened around about 9.30pm

near the Fryeming Bridge. This big rock was dropped on to a Vauxhall

Astra where a mum and daughter were driving along. The car was damaged,

but amazingly, neither was hurt. It was just as if somebody put their

hands over my eyes. I just heard a bang, and my windscreen shattered.

Maybe if I was travelling that one mile an hour more, it could have

come through my windscreen. They could have killed four people

within half an hour and just go home and sleep. I don't understand

how people could do that. They're obviously not normal people

to do something like that. I'm scared that it's going to happen

again to somebody else, and I want them to be caught, really.

As if that wasn't bad enough, around about half an hour after

that, a couple were driving under the West Hanningfield Bridge

towards Brentford when their niece was hit by this block of concrete.

The block crushed the female passenger, 57-year-old Carol Manley

causing her serious head injuries. It's being treated as attempted

murder. Police are appealing for information who has information to

contact Essex Police. OK. It's time for some updates on

some previous cases. We start with news on an appeal

from our last programme. We asked for information about the death of

Rico Gordon, who was shot after he was caught in the crossfire of a

gunfight in the eastern area of Bristol in July. Two men from

London, one 30 and one 26, have since been arrested and charged in

connection with his murder. Officers have also identified two

of the three witnesses they were seeking, but they'd still like to

hear from anyone else who was on Stapleton Road on the night of the

shooting or from anyone else who can help. If you can, contact Avon

and Somerset Constabulary via Crimestoppers, 0800 555 111.

In September, we appealed for information about the theft of this

rare rhino head from the Haslemere Museum in Surrey. As a direct

result from calls to the show, a 32-year-old man from Tilbury in

Essex has been caught. An excellent result on a case we

featured in May. A young woman was raped after she made her way out

for a meal on Valentine's Day this year. We showed you this CCTV

footage of her attacker just moments before he subjected her to

the terrifying ordeal watching the programme that night was an officer

from a neighbouring force who recognised similarities to a case

that he was investigating. The shared intelligence led detectives

to 27-year-old Michael Tejkowski from Maidstone. Last week he was

found guilty of raping two women and sexually assaulting a third,

sentencing him to 18 years in prison. The judge described him as

"a thoroughly dangerous man" who had shown not a shred of remorse or

human compassion towards his victims.

Still to come tonight: why was 37- year-old Errol McKenzie shot dead

in an East London park in an apparently random shooting?

I just got in from church, and the telephone rang, and my eldest

daughter said to me, "Mum, Errol died. Errol is dead." And can you

identify the gang behind a shockingly violent robbery at the

home of an elderly couple near Leicester?

SHOUTING I was watching the one with the

machete, which was a bit frightening, when I was hit in the

face with a crowbar. And police in Glasgow need to know who these men

are. They are both wanted for serious sexual assaults on the same

woman. We'll have the inside story of how - sorry about that - we'll

have the inside story of how detectives caught the killer of

Birmingham taxi driver Mohammed Arshad. They brought the case to

Crimewatch after a sharp-eyed detective spotted a new piece of

CCTV. That's when we had a real

breakthrough. But first, Matthew has the latest

on what has been happening on the phones so far. It is very busy here

on the floor tonight. Let's talk to Nick, who is investigating that

devastating attack on the 15-year- old boy in Sussex. I know just in

the last few seconds as we were starting chatting, you had some

exciting information coming in. the calls, the texts, the e-mails -

we're into double figures now, and the same person has been named on

more than one occasion. Someone who has phoned through clearly know a

lot about what happened. They don't want to leave their name, but I

need them to phone back. One day these people could be parents.

They've got to step forward and do the right thing now because they

won't get the opportunity to turn the clock back. Thank you very much.

If it was you that made that call, please call back. Rav

Number five is this fellow. This is Rehan Suleman. He's wanted

in connection with the large-scale supply of heroin and crack cocaine

as well as firearm offences. Suleman, who is 27, has connections

to Bradford and is known to use the alias Mohammed Baber. This one is

taken from CCTV and is what he may look like now. Have a look at that.

Next is this guy here. This is Steve James, also known as Mr Koch

or Mr Horse. He's Peter James Waller, due to stand trial for

stolen antiques and jewellery worth more than �130,000 but didn't turn

up to court. He has various tattoos including

one on his thumbs saying "mum" and "dad" and one "love" on his right

knuckles. And lastly tonight, this is 33 year

old Sodor Alom. Police need to trace him in connection with the

rape of a woman in Newport in South Wales in January. He failed to turn

up at court in August and has been wanted ever since. Alom, who may

The couple whose Leicestershire farmhouse was raided by a gang.

They made off with rare and valuable shot guns and rifles. Not

only are they worth a lot of money, they could be deadly in the wrong

They loved the countryside and what it contains, different wildlife,

bird life, all sorts of wonderful things. We're down a long farm

drive. Our immediate neighbours are halfway down the farm drive. We've

been here about 31 years now. Shooting and hunting and fishing,

it's part of the rural thing, you know. It's how we've been brought

up. This is the home of Sandra and David Clarke, a Smallvilleage south

of Leicestershire. -- Leicester. A masked gang put the couple through

a terrible ordeal. They were tied up and David was savagely beaten

with a machete and iron bar. It was a very normal day about the farm

and about the yard, just normal. Mucking out, turning out, feeding

and then I cooked dinner in the evening. I was watching the

programme on the television. Sandra was in the other room watching a

different programme. I'd just switched over to news at 10pm when

I was watching the one with the machete, which was a bit

frightening, when I was hit in the face with a crow bar. It knocked my

teeth out and that was the end of me then. Then I went down in a hail

of blows from cricket bat and the machete. They took my watch and

wallet and the keys. The keys to the gun cabinet. I did hear a noise.

The next thing I knew there was a man standing alongside me with a

crow bar in his hand. He just grabbed me and pulled me from the

chair. They were still knocking David about and I remember shouting

to them to leave him alone, because I said he'll have a heart attack,

he's not well. I said that at least two or three times, which they

didn't take any notice of me. That was the start of my ordeal with

them. Where is the money? haven't got any. Don't lie! Tell me.

Where is it. He got a screw driver that he poked in my cheek. Then he

put it in my mouth, threatened me and then he threatened me with the

machete. They wouldn't believe me that we hadn't got a safe. They

trashed the office. There was rub esh -- rubbish everywhere. They

crow barred the door but used the key to open the gun safe. Several

of them are Purdey shot guns, which are the best money can buy. They're

works of art. They certainly are my pride and joy and to see them being

handled so roughly, it horrified me. He threatened to blow my head off

with one of my guns if I didn't tell them where the safe was.

said "You're lying to us. Where is the money?" They wouldn't believe

us there wasn't any. They just wouldn't believe us. We were both

taken back into the front room. They tied our legs and then they

tied my legs then to the coffee table. We assumed they were loading

up the vehicles with the guns. One of them went round and drew all the

curtains. He went. Haif gone. police? We've been robbed. They've

stolen my cars and a lot of guns. Things are things, they can rob you.

To do what they did to us just was unnecessary really. It's never

worried me being here on my own, even at night, it's never worried

me. But I think it will do now. horrified me to think that some of

the guns they took could be threatening some poor shopkeeper or

something like that. We were lucky that we weren't badly hurt. We were

sort of, bad enough, but the next time they do it, it will probably,

it could well escalate into somebody being killed. Isn't that

terrible. Detective Constable Tim Smith is with me now. It's worth

pointing out that the Clarkes have completely revised their security

arrangements. You think it was a targeted attack. You don't, however,

think that these thiefs were going for the guns, but that's what they

got. Take me through the guns they stole. The most prominent one is a

gun like this, it's a Purdey gun. It's worth about �70,000., in a

pair. There are several others stolen. Around about �150,000. The

cars were stolen as we heard Mr Clarke say there, two cars. What

can you tell us about them? They had personal aislesed number plates.

We believe they were taken off We believe they were taken off

shortly after the robbery. We're hoping somebody saw them beforehand.

More detailed descriptions are on the website. For now, thank you. A

reward of �5,000 in this case leading to arrest and conviction.

Quite an ordeal for that couple. It is really important that those guns

are found. Call the detectives here are found. Call the detectives here

now on: Depr Next, the shocking story of a father fatally gunned

down in Leyton in East London. 37- year-old Errol McKenzie's body was

found in a park. He had been shot three times. Detective Chief

Inspector Mark Gower joins me now. What can you tell bus this? It was

on April 11, 2010, shortly after midnight the body of Errol McKenzie

was found by a passer-by in the playing fields off Seymour Road in

Leyton. He was shot three times in the legs an chest. We have no idea

if or why he was targeted. It seems like a random shooting. Given it

was a random shooting, understandably his family are

entirely shocked by this. Let's hear from his mother.

I just got in from church. The telephone rang. My eldest daughter

said to me, "Mum, Errol died. He is dead. Yes, mum. I can't believe it

myself, but he is dead. "It won't kill the sadness in my heart as

long as I live, but we would like the person or persons who have done

it to be brought to justice. Tell us what you know about his last

movements on that day? We know he went to Tottenham that evening.

We've not been able to establish how he got back to Leyton, where he

was seen on CCTV in a shop buying alcohol on Lea Bridge Road. Leaving

the shop he turned right. We don't know why because it wasn't the

direction home. Tell me about the gun. The gun is this type weapon.

It uses 9mm short ammunition. We know the gun has since been used in

the North London area. We need to get it off the streets. Yeah. We do.

You have CCTV of potential witnesses. We know he was in the

park. The footage shows a small hatch back car driving into the

park, also two cyclists, cycling into the park also via Marsh Lane.

We would like to Thais trees people. There is a reward of �20,000. For

now thank you. Can you ID fi anyone in the CCTV you've just seen. Ring

the usual number or call Crimestoppers. Do that anonymously.

It's time for more CCTV. Several police forces are still

hard at work examining the hundreds of thousands of hours of CCTV

footage from the summer riots. Tonight, the Met need your help to

identify people caught on camera in identify people caught on camera in

London on August 8. This is inside the party store in lavender hill in

Battersea. Two men are inside the shop which had been broken into

earlier in the day. One man sets light to a rail of clothes and the

fire quickly spreads. The shop and the flats above it were destroyed

in the blaze. Can you name the man time. A tiny newsagent's kiosk is

the focus of looters' attention. They grab handfuls of cigarettes

and chocolate. The shopkeeper desperately giving them what they

want in an attempt to make them leave. Suddenly a man appears

leave. Suddenly a man appears wielding a large crow bar. That

sparks a second round of looting. Later and further up High Street

North an the gangs attention -- a tension turns to a money shop. They

head upstairs. One of them taking a large wrench. The terrified staff

can see them coming and make a run for it, before the gang use hammers

and wrenchs to break in. They make off with thousands of

pounds in British and foreign Later on that evening, and this is

a cash machine outside the Asda supermarket in beck to be -- beck

ton in East London. See the bright sparks, an angle grinder is being

used. They attack the hinges with little success. They try the middle

of the door with the same result. Well, as luck would have it, some

of their mates turn up in a flashy black Mercedes, the car, which

police believe were stolen, is used as a battering ram. But despite

their best efforts, they still couldn't get to the cash. Name

these reckless, ram-raiders tonight. Remember all the footage stays

Remember all the footage stays online until they're caught. If you

recognise anyone, you know what to In the early hours of Sunday 30th

January, a night out in Glasgow city centre came to an horrific end

for a young woman. She was sunted to a violent sexual assault by not

just one but two different men. remember them being quite forceful

towards me, pushing me forcefully up against the Coroner of the

doorway and then, pushing me down onto the ground. They then pinned

me down by kneeling on my ankles and holding onto my wrists. I

remember screaming for my friends, because I thought they would have

been back out to come and get me, but they never heard me. I'm joined

by Detective Sergeant Duncan Cameron. I should tell people what

we're about to talk about and see is really, I think, very

distressing indeed. Can you tell me first of all, describe a little bit

more of what happened to this young woman. The victim had been out with

friends in a local nightclub in Glasgow. She'd had a few drinks and

had fallen asleep within the club. This led to staff putting her out

the back door from where she walked to the main street, Buchanan Street.

She was targeted by a male who dragged her into the alleyway and

sexually assaulted her. We have CCTV. People may find this pretty

distressing. We feel we have to show it so people understand how

show it so people understand how horrific this attack was. Tell us

what we're seeing. This guy is practically carrying the victim

into the lane. Then he drags her into a nearby doorway, where he

subjects her to substantial and sustained sexual assault. We've got

another piece of CCTV, almost beyond belief. Let's run it now.

You tell people what we're seeing here. Five minutes after the first

attacker leaves, this second guy comes into the same lane, our

victim's on the floor. He can't see her from the street. Initially it

looks as if he's there to help her, but he doesn't. He picked her up,

throws her into the same doorway and sex lay saults her. It appears

that there's been contact with the first attacker and the second.

is extraordinary. There is an important, could be a very

important witness, again also on CCTV. This is during the first

attack, this female comes into the lane. She walks about halfway down.

Then she turns on her heels and walks straight back out again.

Whether she's seen or heard something we don't know. We want

her to get in touch with the programme or if anybody recognises

her, she's wearing a short jacket with a furry hood. Thank you. If

you are that woman, potentially a very important witness or you think

you can help, you saw how appalling you can help, you saw how appalling

that was, I would urge you to call now. If you have been a victim of

crime, you can call the Victim Now, two years ago Crimewatch

appealed for your help to find the killer of Mohammed Arshad, a

married father of three who worked as a taxi driver in Birmingham.

He'd been stabbed six times in the head, and he was dumped in a

country lane. Matthew takes up the story of how the murderer's own

diary would ultimately help secure "I know I deserve to be caught, but

instincts are telling me to run. I have been on the edge of breaking."

I look back, and it's all like a Mohammed Arshad was a taxi driver

working for A Cars in the West Midlands Police area. He was

married with three small children, all of them under the age of ten.

He was expecting his fourth child at the time of his murder. When

Arshad picked up a passenger on July 22nd, 2009, it would be for

Arshad was stabbed in his taxi. He was stabbed from behind. It was a

particularly frenzied attack. And having been stabbed, he was pulled

from the taxi and left for dead at the side of the road. A passing

motorist arrived as Arshad's killer was leaving the scene.

Suspicious, the driver investigated and discovered Arshad's body lying

in the ditch. Arshad had received in excess of 15 stab wounds. Six of

those stab wounds were to his head, and one of them had penetrated his

brain. Such force was used that the knife actually broke. Police found

the taxi dumped later that night. Early evidence was available in the

form of two palm prints on the rear off-side window and door of the

taxi. Now, those palm prints were quite significant in that they were

bloodstained. With an attack of this nature, it seemed likely a

killer would have a record of violence, but a search of the

national database found no matches. We realised then this wasn't going

to be an easy case, and it was going to be a very detailed, very

painstaking investigation. �187 had been left in Arshad's taxi, but if

this wasn't a robbery, what was the motive? We honestly had no idea

what the motive for this attack was. CCTV showed Arshad's final

passenger, the police's main suspect, making his way to the taxi

pickup point. It was very grainy. The image was of such poor quality,

I wasn't even prepared to give a physical description. With no

motive, no match for the palm prints and the poor CCTV TV images,

police needed a new approach. Could geography be the key to catching

this killer? The phone box where the taxi had been booked, the

passenger's pickup point and the street where the car was dumped all

lay within a specific area of south Birmingham. We really felt with all

those locations that the answer laid in that area, and this was

very much a local attacker. Police mapped out a zone where they felt

Arshad's murderer was likely to live. And that's when we embarked

upon a mass screening of the area, taking fingerprints, DNA and

photographs of all males from between 15 and 45 years old.

there were 3,000 households within that area, and at least 700 men

fitting the murderer's profile. knew the mass screening was going

to take month, but we just couldn't sit back and do nothing. So the

CCTV trawl also continued. We're now getting to the stage where

we're viewing that CCTV which is further away from the scene,

further away from those critical areas we were looking at. And

that's when we had a real breakthrough. A sharp-eyed

detective spotted a man on a local bus on the day of the attack and

recognised him from the CCTV of Arshad's final passenger. Suddenly,

the pressure was on. And I thought, well, if this is the person, we

need to get these images on Crimewatch as soon as we can.

tapes were couriered to an imaging company who would compare the CCTV

of the man on the bus with the images of the suspect. As soon as

we got the information from the forensic imaging company that it

was the same person, the courier that delivered it was ordered

direct to the Crimewatch studio. And the new clearer CCTV sparked a

response. The day after the programme, two

separate people rang in to say they knew the man on the bus and named

him as Andrew Bayliss, and alarm bells started ringing when both

callers told police that Bayliss had shaved his head and grown a

beard so he no longer looked like the CCTV pictures.

To add to our suspicions, he actually lived right in the area

where we were doing the mass screening. Police also discovered

Bayliss's name had been logged on the police system the previous

month after his belongings were found apparently abandoned in mid-

Wales. As a result, police had visited Bayliss's home and were

told he'd gone to Wales to clear his head and that he was having

emotional problems. And that in itself coupled with the change of

appearance - this guy is very fast becoming a serious suspect in this

case. Their suspicions were right. 29-

year-old Bayliss had debts of around �20,000. He may have planned

the attack as a robbery, but events have taken a much more violent turn.

Tortured by what he'd done, Bayliss had fled to Wales and wrote an

agonised diary pouring out his thoughts. "Felt like a dream". "I'm

in so much trouble" "I feel sick with guilt" - "I feel paranoid"

"just watching the police get closer." Bayliss had since returned

home to the West Midlands, which is where police made their arrest. His

palm prints were an exact match for those found on Mohammed Arshad's

taxi. Police also found Bayliss's journal when they arrested him.

could just not sit at home and wait to be called. I have such paranoia

from this, every siren I hear. I could just die on the spot.

diary was vital in convincing the jury of his guilt, and he was

sentenced to a minimum of 30 years in prison. This was a brutal,

unprovoked murder. Mohammed Arshad had a family. He was hardworking,

and he did nothing to deserve this attack. We still don't know today

what the true motive was, but whatever happened on that day, he

didn't take any money. It was a life taken for nothing. Matthew,

that sums it up - a life taken for nothing. It was senseless, random

and incredibly savage. Bayliss was drowning in debts, addicted to

gambling, drugs, alcohol, and he really picked out a soft target, a

taxi drive. That was Arshad. I remember running it on the night,

the CCTV. It was brilliant. They spent four months going through

hundreds of hours of CCTV. Remember, at that stage, all they had was

that one grainy image from outside of the school. I was talking to the

detective who made the breakthrough. He said he'd seen that image so

many times, it was imprinted on his brain, just the body shape of this

man, the profile, his hairline, how he moved. When he saw that man on

the bus, instantly, he said, that's him. There was something about his

hair, something that caught his eye. Even his colleagues weren't so sure,

but actually, he was right. Remarkable. In the end another

crucial piece of evidence was the diary. Yes. He'd started by writing

in the diary, "I don't know what this is - maybe an explanation, a

confession" - he talked about "swimming in guilt" - he said, "I

have wasted my life and destroyed others". When he got to court, he

plead not guilty. He said he met a friend, who was the killer, but in

the end, there was only one killer. It was Bayliss. Thanks, Matthew.

It's time for some more news on previous cases.

Firstly an update on a couple of wanted faces. Kemar Campbell

featured last year for the suspected murder of Abdiriskak

Mohamoud in Bristol in July 2010. Well last month 21-year-old

Campbell of Easton in Bristol pleaded guilty to Abdi's

manslaughter and was sentenced to 12 years in prison. Whereas this

guy, Rohan Crooks, made it onto the board in 2009 after deliberately

running over a cyclist and dragging him for 40 feet under the car,

before leaving him for dead in Oxford. Well, last month 34-year-

old Crooks was sentenced to nine and a half years for wounding with

intent and was banned for driving for ten years. Two great results.

There was a nasty situation in a train station - 38-year-old Matthew

Althorp in Preston was found guilty and sentenced to 30 years.

A few days after this show, a viewer recognised this man from a

bookie's in Bristol. He was arrested. He's since pleaded guilty

as well as three other robbers and has been sentenced to six-and-a-

half years in prison. In a case we featured five years

ago Leslie Cumming was viciously attacked outside his home in

Edinburgh suffering horrendous injuries. After an exhaustive

investigation, his attacker was identified as 48-year-old Robert

Graham, who fled to Australia. He was extradited back to to stand

trial and last month was found guilty. He was sentenced to 11

years for the murder, a great result.

Now, how many of you are secretly wishing for something like this

from Santa? Sets like these have become more than just toys. They

are now an attractive target for thieves. Earlier this year a small

family-run museum in Wales was raided for �30,000 of trains. Tell

us, Sergeant Dave Nickels what happened. In June the Conwy Valley

Railway Museum was broken into. The thieves disabled the CCTV cameras

and stole �30,000 worth of model railway trains. It was pretty well

executed. It was a focused raid. There were 180 individual pieces

that were stolen. There are details of a lot of the pieces on the

website. You don't think that this is an isolated incident. No, we

believe there was a similar burglary in Kent in May of this

year, and we have been liaising with officers there. We believe

that most of the items are heading for foreign markets over in Europe,

but we would ask anyone that has been offered similar items or has

seen them for sale to contact us tonight. Thank you very much indeed.

It really has hit this little museum hard, so if you can help,

call 0500 600 600. Time for a kick last update from

Rav. The calls are flying in on Mo

Bourner. We have had is encallers naming the same person, nearly 35

calls and texts, rising all the time. Some anonymous information.

We need you to call in. Please call back. We have had a few calls in on

this brutal attack on a couple in Leicestershire. If you can help, do

get in touch. Remember, you can view all the

reconstructions, wanted faces and CCTV online. Just go to
