00:16before they then run full sprint.
00:20Do you know where he might be?
00:22Welcome back to Crimewatch Live.

02:06First this morning, a family have been left in ruins
02:09after 22-year-old Rijkaard Siafa
02:11was stabbed to death in Croydon in April 2024.
02:15I call Rijkaard my Rijkaard man.
02:23He calls me his queen.
02:27Said, Mom, you're my queen.
02:31Rijkaard's love for life was unmatched.
02:36He loves his football.
02:37His first thing was football.
02:39He sleep with his ball.
02:42He was playing for Crystal Palace Academy
02:44a couple of years ago.
02:47He wanted to be a coach
02:48and his certificate came just after he passed away.
03:02On the 12th of April 2024,
03:05Rijkaard Siafa spent most of the day at a friend's house
03:08in Fellmonger's yard, Croydon.
03:12He'd messaged his girlfriend to come and collect him.
03:16So he'd come out at roughly around 6pm
03:19to meet with his girlfriend.
03:20As Rijkaard gets to the end of Fellmonger's yard
03:27at the junction with Surrey Street,
03:28he immediately meets two men.
03:36They see him and run straight into Fellmonger's yard
03:39and then there's another male
03:40that runs straight after the other two.
03:42He's attacked and suffers multiple stab wounds.
03:57The three men leave very quickly.
04:00The men who had chased Rijkaard ran from the scene.
04:05Rijkaard had been stabbed multiple times
04:08and was seriously wounded.
04:11Rijkaard managed to get up to his friend's house
04:14where he collapsed.
04:16His friends called for an ambulance.
04:19Paramedics and doctors tended to Rijkaard
04:22but unfortunately they were not able to save his life.
04:27Rijkaard Siafa was only 22 years old.
04:31Rijkaard was only 22 years old.
04:32Rijkaard was only 23 years old.
04:33Life changed drastically, everything.
04:39I go to the toilet and cry.
04:42When I'm having my lunch, I cry.
04:46So it's like I'm crying every day.
04:48Hours after the fatal attack,
05:00police launched a murder investigation.
05:02They started by taking witness statements
05:04and trawling CCTV from the local vicinity.
05:09Surrey Street generally has a market.
05:11Around that sort of time,
05:12the market would have been clearing up
05:14but it was still quite busy with people.
05:16Witnesses told us
05:19that they had seen three black males
05:22and that two of the males
05:23were wearing face coverings.
05:26One of the witnesses told us
05:27that he could clearly see
05:29that one of the suspects had a knife.
05:31Another witness told us
05:32that he'd seen one of the suspects
05:35repeatedly stabbing Rijkaard
05:37before they then run full sprint
05:40out of Felmonger's yard.
05:41We searched all of the streets for CCTV
05:48from business premises
05:49and the local authority
05:51so we can identify who the males were
05:55and also where they've gone
05:57in order to try and apprehend them.
06:00We tracked the suspects
06:02and find that they go
06:04to the Spread Eagle public house
06:05and then get a taxi
06:09from there to another address.
06:12And we see here
06:13that they change their clothes.
06:17From this address,
06:18they get a taxi
06:19to another block of flats in Croydon
06:22and they change their clothes again.
06:25They're trying to change their appearance.
06:26With clear images of the three suspects,
06:31police used facial recognition technology
06:34in an attempt to identify them
06:36and they had a match.
06:38The three people that we identified
06:40were David Walcott,
06:43Ramon Malley
06:43and Jordan Vincent.
06:48We knew who they were.
06:50It was just finding where they were
06:51to be able to arrest them.
06:52Within a week,
06:56David Walcott had been arrested.
06:59We knew that Ramon Malley
07:00had left the country.
07:03But early in May,
07:04Ramon Malley returned to the country
07:06and was arrested at Gatwick Airport.
07:09They were both charged
07:10with murder of Rijkaard.
07:14David Walcott was also charged
07:16with possession of a knife.
07:18In February 2025,
07:20they were found guilty
07:21of Rijkaard's murder
07:23and they were sentenced
07:24to 27 years in prison.
07:29But one of the suspects,
07:3228-year-old Jordan Vincent,
07:34had disappeared
07:35and police need to find him.
07:38I do not know
07:39where Jordan Vincent is.
07:42So I am actively seeking
07:43his whereabouts.
07:44They took my life.
07:53It's like I'm in prison now.
07:56You know,
07:57without Rijkaard.
08:00I smell his clothes every day.
08:03I put on his shoes
08:04and his clothes.
08:06Every day I'm looking at the phone
08:08and say he will text me.
08:10I look over the window
08:12to see that I can see him
08:14and hear his voice,
08:16but he's no longer there.
08:18So they left me
08:20heartbroken.
08:25Police can't establish
08:26any reason or motive
08:28for this attack
08:29that took Rijkaard's life.
08:31For anybody that knows
08:35where Jordan Vincent is,
08:39I'm urging them
08:40and I'm pleading
08:41and asking
08:42for them to bring him forward.
08:45I don't want it to happen
08:46to any other family.
08:48Please,
08:49as a mother,
08:50I'm asking.
08:54It's just so sad.
08:56I'm now with DCI Sam Townsend.
08:58You saw her from the film there,
08:59from the Met Police.
09:00Sam,
09:01understandably,
09:01this has just been so hard
09:04for Rijkaard's mother,
09:05his wider family.
09:06It's really,
09:07really devastating,
09:08isn't it?
09:08Yes,
09:09it has been,
09:09Rav.
09:10Totally.
09:11She's absolutely distraught.
09:13We can see that.
09:14So let's,
09:15can you just start
09:15by recapping
09:16just what happened
09:17that evening?
09:18So we're talking about
09:19the 12th of April,
09:202024.
09:22Rijkaard had been
09:23at a friend's house
09:23in Felmonger's yard
09:24in Croydon.
09:26He left around 6pm,
09:28heading down
09:29towards Surrey Street.
09:31We know that
09:32within Surrey Street,
09:33the three suspects
09:34were there,
09:34Ramon Malley,
09:35David Walcott
09:36and Jordan Vincent.
09:38They met with him
09:39at the corner
09:40of Felmonger's yard
09:41and chased him
09:42into Felmonger's yard
09:43and that's where
09:44he's fatally stabbed.
09:45And then afterwards,
09:47we can see on this map here,
09:50this is now the movements
09:51of what occurred
09:51after that fatal stabbing.
09:53So the three of them
09:55then leave Felmonger's yard
09:57at speed
09:57and they go to
09:58the Spread Eagle
09:59public house
10:00where they have a drink.
10:02From that,
10:03from the public house,
10:04they then move to
10:04Malcolm Wick's house,
10:05which is a tower block.
10:07And from there,
10:08at their address,
10:09they change their clothing.
10:11They then move to Delta Point
10:13and they change
10:13their clothing again.
10:15It's after Delta Point
10:16that we lose them
10:17on the CCTV.
10:19OK.
10:19And then after that,
10:21some very swift police work
10:23did lead to the arrest
10:24of two of those males.
10:25So this is David
10:26Walcott Ramon Malley.
10:28We can see them here.
10:29They were arrested,
10:30they were charged,
10:31they were convicted
10:32and they are serving
10:33very lengthy sentences
10:34for this murder.
10:35But there is this
10:36one outstanding male,
10:38this man,
10:39this is Jordan Vincent.
10:41He is the one
10:42you still need to find,
10:43isn't he?
10:43Yes, he is.
10:45I don't know
10:45where Jordan Vincent is.
10:47OK, well, let's try
10:48and find where he is now.
10:50How would you describe
10:51this man?
10:53So Jordan is 28 years old.
10:55He's approximately
10:56five foot nine,
10:58black male.
10:59He's got short road hair
11:02and black beard.
11:03Obviously, Rav,
11:04that could have changed.
11:06We know that he's got
11:07a tattoo on his right hand
11:09of a crown
11:10with an A and a B
11:11underneath.
11:12So quite a distinctive
11:13mark in there.
11:1428 years of age.
11:15He's only just had a birthday,
11:17so he's only just turned 28.
11:18But that is the man
11:19you need to find,
11:20Jordan Vincent, there.
11:21And it's worth saying
11:22where this happened
11:23and when this happened,
11:24Croydon,
11:25it's a busy part
11:26of South London,
11:27isn't it?
11:276pm,
11:28there's lots of people
11:28that are surely
11:29going to be around,
11:30therefore lots of
11:31potential witnesses.
11:32Yeah, we did have
11:33a lot of witnesses
11:33come forward.
11:35It's very busy.
11:37Surrey Street
11:37has a market.
11:38At that time of the evening,
11:39the market was closing down,
11:41so there was still
11:42lots of people in the area.
11:43Yes, we need to hear
11:44from those people.
11:45And if anyone does need
11:47any further incentive
11:48to come forward,
11:49there's actually
11:49a financial reward
11:50that has been put up
11:51for this case.
11:52Yes, the Metropolitan Police
11:53have put up to
11:55a £10,000 reward
11:56for information
11:57leading to the arrest
11:59and conviction
11:59of Jordan Vincent.
12:00So if anyone does
12:01that information,
12:02don't keep it to themselves.
12:04Sam, it's worth saying this,
12:06you are a detective
12:07with an incredibly long
12:08career in the Met.
12:09You're also a senior
12:10investigating officer,
12:11but above all,
12:12you're a human being.
12:13You have dealt
12:14with Rykard's mother
12:16many, many times.
12:17You know how much
12:18it would mean to her
12:19to get this last man
12:20caught, apprehended
12:22and convicted
12:23for this crime,
12:23don't you?
12:24Yeah, this has
12:25devastated Hassan Utu
12:26and the wider family,
12:28of course.
12:29So it would be
12:30really good
12:31to get the last person
12:33involved in this offence
12:34to face justice.
12:35Yeah, you're not
12:36going to give up.
12:37I know that, Sam.
12:40Well, if you do know
12:41anything about this case,
12:43it's worth saying
12:43the bottom of the screen,
12:45you can see a QR code.
12:46If you scan that
12:47with your phone's camera,
12:48it will take you
12:48through to our website.
12:49And on that,
12:50we've got all the links
12:51where you can contact
12:52Sam's team
12:53with any information
12:54that you've got.
12:55Do take a look at that.
12:56And if you want to get
12:56in touch with us,
12:57of course, please do so.
12:59All the ways to do that,
13:01the contact details
13:02are at the bottom
13:02of the screen below.
13:05Well, Rykard Siafa
13:06is just one victim
13:07that has lost his life
13:08to knife crime.
13:09And over the last 10 years,
13:11there's been an 81% increase
13:13in police-recorded offences
13:14involving a knife
13:15or sharp instrument.
13:17I'm now with Martin Tilbury
13:18and Millie Mae Adams
13:19from the charity
13:20Street Doctors,
13:21who are working to tackle
13:22this national crisis
13:23in a very practical way.
13:25Thank you both for joining us.
13:26Great to see you.
13:27So, Martin, tell us,
13:28what is Street Doctors
13:29all about?
13:30Yeah, Street Doctors
13:31is a national charity,
13:32and we train about
13:3316,000 young people
13:34every year
13:34in the physical
13:35and psychological effects
13:36of street violence.
13:38And we're supported
13:38by 250 healthcare volunteers
13:41like Millie Mae.
13:43And we do a lot of work
13:44with training young people
13:45to be young leaders
13:46and almost we empower them
13:48to support the addressing
13:51of street violence.
13:52Really important.
13:53And some of this
13:54is practical training.
13:55Just describe some
13:56of the practical training
13:57that people would see
13:58on this course.
13:59Yeah, we do a lot of work
14:00around knife injuries
14:02and how to actually
14:03illustrate things
14:04in a simple way.
14:05So Millie Mae,
14:07you can just highlight
14:07a couple of those for us.
14:09Yeah, so you use
14:09a really simple mnemonic
14:11called AS ALERT,
14:12and these are the steps
14:12to follow if you find
14:13someone in this situation.
14:15So A is to call an ambulance,
14:17so even if you can't
14:18do anything else,
14:18that can make a huge difference.
14:20Then it's safety,
14:21so is it safe for you
14:22to intervene?
14:23And you apply pressure
14:24around the knife,
14:26lie them down,
14:27elevate their legs,
14:28reassure them
14:28because they'll obviously
14:29be very worried
14:30in this situation,
14:31and then regulate
14:32their temperature,
14:32so keep them warm.
14:33So AS ALERT is what
14:34we're remembering,
14:35but you talked about
14:36applying pressure
14:37near the wound
14:38because there's something
14:39very important
14:40you're going to give us
14:40a demonstration of right now.
14:42We've got a spoon
14:42and a bottle here
14:43to help us.
14:44There is good reason
14:45for that, I'm sure.
14:45There is good reason,
14:46this is important.
14:47Can you talk us through
14:48why it's so important
14:49that you leave the knife in?
14:51Yeah, it's a very easy
14:52visual representation
14:53of what's going on
14:54with blood loss.
14:54So this represents
14:56the knife or sharp object.
14:58So the idea is
14:58with it left in
14:59it creates a plug
15:00so you don't have
15:01that much loss of blood.
15:03But if you take the knife out,
15:05this is the blood loss
15:06that you'll have.
15:07It's quite simple
15:07but it's so effective.
15:08It's so simple
15:09because the natural reaction
15:10instinct of so many people
15:11surely is to want
15:13to just pull it out
15:14thinking they're doing
15:14the right thing
15:15but as you say
15:16apply pressure,
15:17so important
15:17but a lot of people
15:19wouldn't realise
15:19going around
15:20makes the difference
15:22that it does.
15:22And seeing something
15:23like that hopefully
15:23makes you remember it
15:25as well.
15:25But how did you get
15:26involved in the first place,
15:27Millie Mae?
15:27I grew up in an area
15:29of Cardiff
15:29where I witnessed
15:30quite a lot of streets
15:31and gang violence
15:32and I felt quite helpless.
15:34So I was looking
15:34for something
15:35that was tackling this
15:36and street doctors
15:37focuses on prevention
15:39as well as what to do
15:40if you find yourself
15:41in that situation.
15:42So it does save lives.
15:44And saving lives
15:44is obviously very,
15:45very important to you,
15:46Millie Mae.
15:46You're a fourth year
15:47medical student at the moment
15:48and during your medical studies
15:50you actually became Miss Wales
15:52and you actually used
15:53that platform
15:55to really push
15:56the message
15:57about street doctors,
15:58didn't you?
15:59Tell us about that.
16:00Yeah, I proudly represented
16:01Wales at Miss World
16:02and I'm the current
16:03Miss United Kingdom
16:04and I had the chance
16:05to highlight the impact
16:06that street violence
16:07is having in the UK
16:08but also globally
16:09and I won an award
16:11called Beauty
16:11with a Purpose Award
16:12for this
16:13and it's recognition
16:14of the best social impact
16:16that the girls
16:17are having globally
16:17and street doctors
16:19obviously needed
16:19to be highlighted for that.
16:21Congratulations on that.
16:21It's amazing, yeah,
16:22to get that recognition globally
16:23because lots of great projects
16:24are recognised
16:25but street doctors
16:26are very much up there
16:27and Martin actually talking
16:28of street doctors
16:28and the campaign,
16:29you've got a current campaign
16:31out at the moment.
16:32It's all about
16:33basically dispelling
16:34the idea that
16:35there is a safe place
16:36to stab someone
16:36not to kill them
16:37which is absolutely
16:38categorically not true.
16:40Let's have a wee look
16:41actually at that
16:42latest campaign right now.
16:45Where is a safe place
16:47to stab?
16:48Right here
16:49is probably safe place.
16:50If you want to just
16:50injure them
16:51like round here.
16:53I lost my son
16:54through a single stab wound.
16:57I don't want it
16:57to happen to anybody else.
17:00Young people
17:00are going online
17:01every week
17:02searching
17:03where is there
17:04a safe place to stab?
17:05There is no safe place
17:07to stab somebody.
17:12It's powerful.
17:12It is powerful.
17:13It's incredible to see.
17:14So what was the point
17:16of taking on
17:16a project like this?
17:18Why is it so important, Martin?
17:19It was really important for us.
17:21We know a lot of young people
17:22are carrying knives
17:23because they feel unsafe
17:24unfortunately
17:25and one of the challenges
17:27is sometimes
17:28they might use a knife
17:29thinking they actually
17:30can't do a lot of harm
17:31and what this film
17:33is generating for us
17:34is to highlight
17:35that there's no safe place
17:36to stab somebody
17:37and it does actually
17:38you have a loss of life.
17:40It's an important campaign
17:41for obviously everyone to see
17:43but the people involved in it
17:44felt very strongly
17:46about it as well, didn't they?
17:47Yeah, we were very fortunate
17:48that there was a lot
17:49of brave families
17:50who were involved
17:51after losing somebody
17:53and they really wanted
17:55to share their message
17:56and highlight this campaign
17:58to really get the message out
17:59to many more young people
18:00at the moment.
18:01I think it makes it
18:02all the more powerful.
18:03I remember my time
18:03in the police
18:04I'd give a talk to youngsters
18:06I had a tray full of knives
18:07massive ones
18:08down to tiny little pen knives
18:09and I'd say
18:10what's the minimum
18:10that would actually kill someone
18:12and Millie Mae
18:13I think you know
18:14what I'm going to say here
18:14because the youngsters
18:16would all pick
18:16for the big ones
18:17they'd all say
18:18that one, that one, that one
18:18and Millie Mae
18:19you know the answer to this
18:20don't you?
18:20It's literally
18:21any single one of them
18:23is enough to kill
18:23and that's the message
18:24part of the message
18:25you want to get across.
18:26The smallest object
18:27can have catastrophic outcomes
18:29so we really need
18:29to push that message.
18:30Yeah, well you're doing
18:31a fantastic job
18:32in doing that.
18:33You really are.
18:33Thank you for talking
18:34to us today
18:34and I'll tell you
18:35we've actually put a link
18:36on our website
18:37that will actually
18:39be able to show
18:40your website on there
18:41for anyone that wants
18:42to check it out.
18:42Definitely have a look
18:43at that and details
18:44of how to see them
18:45on at the bottom
18:45of the screen.
18:46Yeah, absolutely.
18:48Now, how an opportunist
18:50group of crooks
18:51found a way to rinse
18:52as much money
18:53out of their victims
18:54as they possibly could
18:55with a theft
18:56and then a fraud scam.
18:57This wasn't just
19:00a one-off.
19:01It was a highly organised,
19:02sophisticated operation.
19:06The suspects were targeting
19:07hard-working people
19:08who were just trying
19:10to make a difference.
19:11I was checking
19:12my banking app
19:13and there was two lots
19:14of money transferred
19:15out of my account
19:16and it was gone.
19:19I felt sick.
19:21Absolutely sick.
19:22Just a blind panic.
19:27On the 14th of April 2023,
19:33Sarah went to work
19:34as usual
19:35at a residential home
19:36in Lincolnshire.
19:38I went into work,
19:41put my bag down,
19:42went and made a brew,
19:43then went in for handover
19:45and then got on
19:46with my day
19:47and it must have been
19:48about half ten
19:49that somebody rang me.
19:53And I get this man
19:54on the phone saying
19:55two girls in Skegness
19:58have my purse.
20:00I felt absolutely sick
20:03and running from room to room
20:04to check my handbag.
20:06Just a blind panic.
20:09I didn't know what to do.
20:12Never had anything stolen before.
20:15Sure enough,
20:17her wallet had been taken.
20:18He'd said that my card
20:22had been used
20:23at a shop in Horncastle
20:24and I'd spent a certain amount
20:26on a certain date
20:27and I remembered that purchase
20:28so I didn't really have
20:29any reason to doubt
20:31that it wasn't genuine.
20:33He asked for some digits
20:35off the back of my card.
20:37I said,
20:38I don't know what numbers you want.
20:40And he said,
20:41well, if you give me a pin,
20:42I can cancel your card
20:44so that they can't take
20:45any more funds out.
20:46In my head,
20:47I thought,
20:47they don't usually ask for that
20:49but because I was panicking,
20:51it just blurted out
20:52and I just told him my pin.
20:54My friend said,
20:56have you given him your pin?
20:57And I said,
20:58yeah.
20:58She says,
20:59he's trying to scam you.
21:01You need to ring your bank.
21:02So I was on the phone
21:04to the bank
21:05and checking my banking app
21:07and there was two lots of money
21:09trying to be transferred
21:11out of my account
21:12and, yeah,
21:14it was gone.
21:17The thieves stole
21:18£4,000.
21:20I realised that
21:22it wasn't two girls
21:23going on a shopping spree
21:25in town.
21:25It was actually
21:26somebody scamming me
21:28and taking a lot of money.
21:30You tell other people,
21:31don't give your number out
21:33and then when it actually
21:34happens to you,
21:35you just feel awful.
21:36It's the worst feeling
21:37in the world.
21:38It turned out
21:41that Sarah wasn't
21:42the only victim
21:43to report a crime
21:44just like this.
21:46Detective Sergeant Adam Petty
21:48works at the Serious
21:50and Organised Crime Unit
21:51with Lincolnshire Police.
21:54In November 2023,
21:56he began investigating
21:57a spate of thefts
21:58where thieves
21:59had sneaked into places of work
22:01and stolen wallets
22:03and bank cards.
22:04The suspects were targeting
22:06people who were
22:07working in doctor's surgeries,
22:10nurses,
22:11care homes,
22:12schools,
22:12hard-working people
22:13who were just
22:14trying to actually
22:15make a difference.
22:17The first one
22:18was at a doctor's surgery
22:19in Market Raisin.
22:21The second one
22:22was a doctor's surgery
22:23in Boston.
22:24That was about
22:24two weeks later
22:25and then there was
22:26a further one
22:27at a care home
22:28in Woodall, Spark.
22:30The suspect was wearing
22:31a mask,
22:32COVID mask,
22:33baseball cap.
22:35He would walk around
22:36the doctor's surgeries,
22:37or care homes
22:37or hospices.
22:39The team started
22:41by working to identify
22:42the vehicles used
22:44in the thefts
22:44and a VW Tiguan
22:46quickly caught their attention.
22:49That vehicle travelled
22:50all the way from Coventry
22:51and that vehicle
22:53was insured to use
22:54by a Daniel Sutherland.
22:57He had some previous
22:58offending
22:59for similar offences
23:01so we thought potentially
23:02he would be
23:03the suspect for this.
23:04When they looked
23:05into Sutherland further
23:07they found
23:08he also owned a van.
23:10And that van
23:11was in Lincolnshire
23:12for the other two offences.
23:14There was a clear link now
23:16to show that
23:17it was there
23:17when the sneaking offences
23:18happened.
23:19It was a key breakthrough.
23:22Police put markers
23:23on the vehicles
23:24so they'd be alerted
23:25if they turned up
23:26in Lincolnshire.
23:28And on the 3rd of May
23:29one of them did
23:30police went
23:31to arrest the driver.
23:35You're under arrest
23:36in the suspicion
23:36of conspiracy
23:37to commit murder.
23:38You don't have to say anything.
23:39Inside the car
23:40was Daniel Sutherland.
23:41He was with a second man
23:43called Darren Wikes
23:44who was also arrested.
23:48The vehicle itself
23:49had all sorts of things in it.
23:51It had lots of different
23:52workwear type clothing
23:53different lanyards
23:54but most importantly
23:56was the same jacket
23:57that the male suspect
23:59was wearing
23:59in the offences
24:00in the CCTV.
24:02There was also
24:03a purse
24:04stolen an hour before.
24:06Police seized their phones
24:07and carried out
24:08complex data analysis
24:10on what they'd downloaded.
24:12This painstaking work
24:14revealed a link
24:15to the number
24:15that had called
24:16the victims
24:17posing as the banks.
24:19One number
24:20was very active
24:21and was linked
24:22to a man called
24:23George Quinn.
24:27All it did
24:28was to call
24:29doctor surgeries,
24:30care homes,
24:32schools,
24:32hospices
24:33and mobile numbers.
24:34I then started
24:35contacting the mobile numbers
24:37and there's 19
24:39further offences.
24:41Clearly
24:41there was
24:42a lot of work
24:43I had to do
24:44to actually get
24:44all the evidence
24:45for that.
24:46I would obtain
24:47the statements
24:47from all the victims
24:48myself,
24:49liaising the different
24:50forces to get
24:51all the CCTV,
24:52did all the ANPR work.
24:54They weren't just
24:55targets in Lincolnshire.
24:56They were targeting
24:57all over the country.
24:59There was no sort of
25:00link between
25:01the different forces
25:02and it was only
25:03when I really
25:04started looking at it
25:05I could establish
25:06how big this was
25:07and how far
25:08and wide
25:08they were travelling.
25:10It was a highly
25:11organised,
25:11sophisticated
25:12operation.
25:14Police were now
25:15building a clear
25:16picture of how
25:17the gang were working.
25:19Weix would enter
25:20a premises
25:21posing as a builder
25:22or delivery man.
25:23Once in,
25:24he'd steal any
25:25wallets or purses
25:26he could find
25:27from the staff's
25:28bags and coats.
25:30He'd then call Quinn,
25:31giving him card details
25:32and any receipt
25:34information he'd found
25:35so that Quinn
25:36could win the trust
25:37of the victims.
25:39George Quinn
25:39was very, very good
25:41at making people
25:42believe that he
25:43was from the bank.
25:44Hello, it's Richard
25:44Markham here
25:45from Lloyds Bank
25:46Card Services.
25:47How are you this afternoon?
25:48Two young girls
25:48have gone into
25:49a Tesco Superstore
25:50and tried to buy goods
25:51on a Lloyds Visa debit
25:53card in your name.
25:54You know your
25:55four-digit PIN number?
25:56I can put a block
25:56on it via that way
25:57for you.
25:58I was always told
25:59we shouldn't give
25:59the four-digit though.
26:02Yeah, I'll just
26:03confirm to you
26:04your date of birth.
26:05I'll get it up
26:05on the screen.
26:07He would say
26:08I can provide you
26:09details of any
26:10recent transactions.
26:11Remember going to
26:12Asda in Kidderminton
26:13and you've been
26:13749?
26:15Yeah, I remember
26:16that, yeah.
26:17That's just to
26:17confirm me why.
26:18Obviously, if you
26:18didn't know that
26:19verification number
26:19on the back of your
26:20card, if you've got
26:21that four-digit PIN
26:22number to hand,
26:22I can put a block
26:23on it via that
26:23way for you now.
26:25OK, yes.
26:26Once Quinn had
26:27the PIN code,
26:29he'd pass it on
26:29to Wikes,
26:30who'd go to
26:31ATMs or travel
26:32agencies where
26:33he'd be able to
26:34withdraw large
26:36sums of money.
26:37The gang's
26:37deceit spanned
26:3813 counties
26:39and Lincolnshire
26:41Police collaborated
26:42with 12 other
26:43police forces.
26:45They uncovered
26:45enough evidence
26:46that linked the
26:47gang to 46
26:49separate offences.
26:51on the 29th
26:53of May,
26:542024,
26:55both Wikes
26:55and Quinn
26:56were arrested.
27:00At Darren
27:01Wikes' address,
27:02we found some
27:02money hidden
27:03in a cooker
27:05hood,
27:05several thousand
27:06euros.
27:07But what was
27:08key was the
27:08fact that we
27:09got the clothing
27:10which matched
27:11recent offences.
27:14Sutherland
27:14handed himself
27:15in,
27:17and all three
27:17were convicted
27:18of conspiracy
27:19to commit
27:20burglary
27:20and theft.
27:23Wikes,
27:24the sneak thief,
27:25was sentenced
27:26to five years
27:27and five months
27:28in prison.
27:29Quinn,
27:30the cold-calling
27:31conman,
27:32was given five years.
27:34And Sutherland,
27:35the driver,
27:36was given a 21-month
27:38suspended sentence
27:39for two years.
27:40I'm really, really
27:41pleased that finally
27:43justice has caught up
27:44with them.
27:44They have no morals
27:45at all.
27:46They were targeting
27:47people,
27:48they're most vulnerable
27:49and all this was about
27:51was making money
27:52for them.
27:53Darren Wikes
27:54put £123,000
27:56in cash
27:56through his bank
27:57accounts,
27:58paid in at post office
27:59and over half a million
28:00pounds gone through
28:00his bank accounts.
28:01Not bad for someone
28:02that's not working.
28:03The fact that they'd
28:06actually come into
28:07my place of work
28:08and taken something
28:10that didn't belong
28:11to them
28:11and we have people
28:13living there as well,
28:15that was really scary.
28:18My advice to anybody
28:20would be
28:21if somebody rings you
28:23asking for your
28:23PIN number
28:24off your bank card,
28:26don't give it out.
28:27Always double-check,
28:29ring your bank
28:30because they will know.
28:35Great advice there.
28:36Never,
28:37ever
28:37give out
28:38your PIN code.
28:39Absolutely not.
28:40Intense investigation there
28:41but great result
28:42in the end.
28:42Now,
28:43we have a couple
28:44of quick appeals
28:45for you.
28:45First,
28:46officers in South Yorkshire
28:47are hoping to identify
28:49this man
28:50in connection
28:51with an allegation
28:52of rape.
28:53At 4am
28:53on the 1st of January
28:55of this year,
28:56a woman reported
28:56that she had been raped
28:58by an unknown male
28:59in a room
29:00at a hotel
29:01in St. Mary's Gate
29:02in Sheffield.
29:03Now,
29:03police have been
29:05conducting extensive
29:06inquiries
29:07since the incident
29:08was first reported
29:09to them
29:10and are now appealing
29:11for the public's help
29:12to identify the man
29:13in this image
29:14who they believe
29:15may have vital information
29:17that could help
29:18with this investigation.
29:20He is described
29:21as being
29:215 foot 10,
29:23tall,
29:24slim,
29:24with short black hair,
29:26a stubbly beard
29:26and a slit
29:27across one of his eyebrows.
29:30So take a good look.
29:31Does he look familiar
29:32to you?
29:33This image
29:33was taken in Sheffield
29:35so perhaps you've seen him
29:36locally
29:36in that area maybe.
29:38Get in touch
29:39if you recognise him.
29:41Now,
29:41our second appeal
29:42is from police
29:43in North Wales
29:43who want your help
29:45in connection
29:45with what they call
29:46a series of highly
29:48sophisticated thefts
29:49of keyless cars.
29:51Have a look.
29:52This is them
29:52in action.
29:53In total,
29:54eight cars
29:54were stolen
29:55by a gang
29:56across North Wales
29:57and Cheshire
29:58between January
29:59and March
29:59of this year
30:00valuing more
30:02than half a million pounds.
30:04Staggering amount
30:04of money there.

30:46Now our next guests
30:47are here to talk
30:48to us about
30:48Ask for Angela
30:49a scheme designed
30:50to keep women safe
30:51when they're out
30:52on dates in bars
30:53and clubs.
30:54It's named in memory
30:55of Angela Phillips
30:56who in 2012
30:57was killed by her
30:58then husband
30:59Thomas Crompton.
31:02We're joined now
31:02by Angela's daughter
31:03Holly and
31:04Sylvia Oates
31:05who is the CEO
31:06of Ask for Angela.
31:07Thank you both
31:08so much for coming in.
31:10Holly I'm going to
31:10come to you first
31:11because tell me
31:12a wee bit about
31:12your late mum Angela.
31:14What was she like
31:15and the circumstances
31:17that led to her name
31:17being used in this way?
31:18She was really fun
31:20very creative
31:21vibrant
31:22smart
31:23funny
31:23she was always
31:25the fun parent
31:25and everyone
31:26wanted to be around.
31:29She met a man
31:31who she soon
31:32went on to marry
31:33and then shortly
31:34after that
31:35he killed her
31:36in their home
31:37so a victim
31:39of domestic violence
31:40and then
31:42it was actually
31:42a mutual friend
31:44of hers
31:45who was a police
31:46officer at the time
31:47and she's the one
31:48who set up
31:49and named it
31:49in her memory.
31:51Yeah horrific
31:52circumstances
31:52but an incredible
31:53legacy to leave behind
31:54and Sylvia what is
31:56the Ask for Angela
31:57campaign
31:58and how does it
31:59work in practice
31:59because I've been out
32:00I've been in the
32:01toilets of a bar
32:02and I've seen the posters
32:03like it is very visible
32:04it is out and about
32:05everywhere.
32:06Yeah it's everywhere
32:06isn't it?
32:07It's great.
32:08Yeah so it's an
32:08initiative that's been
32:10going for about 10 years
32:11and it's now supported
32:12by a not-for-profit
32:13company to try and
32:15make sure that it's
32:15successful wherever
32:16it's implemented
32:17and there's around
32:195,000 plus venues
32:21that operate this
32:22initiative as you say
32:22it's everywhere
32:23about 10,000 people
32:25have been trained
32:25and what that means
32:27is it tends to be
32:29night time economy
32:29staff so far
32:30but actually this
32:31initiative would work
32:32anywhere
32:32and those people
32:35are trained to ensure
32:36that if you
32:37if they spot
32:37someone that's
32:38vulnerable
32:38so they're trained
32:39to spot as well
32:39as support
32:40vulnerable people
32:41and if they spot
32:42someone or someone
32:43comes and asks for
32:43help they know
32:44how to react
32:44in that moment
32:45appropriately to
32:46provide the help
32:47that they need
32:47so if you're out
32:49and about in a
32:50public environment
32:51that operates
32:51Ask for Angela
32:52you can go up
32:53to a member of
32:54staff and ask
32:55for help
32:55or ask for Angela
32:56or you know
32:57if you're at a bar
32:58you could say
32:58is Angela working
32:59tonight?
32:59Something like that
33:00so it's as simple
33:01as using those words
33:02you can just say
33:03is Angela
33:03there in it
33:04If the word
33:05Angela is heard
33:06at a bar
33:06then the presumption
33:07is that you're
33:08asking for Angela
33:09that's how we train
33:10even if there's
33:10someone called
33:11Angela working
33:11it's you know
33:12if Angela's mentioned
33:13it's someone
33:14that needs some help
33:14first and foremost
33:15and you know
33:16so you go to the bar
33:18you ask for Angela
33:19or you can just say
33:20I need some help
33:20whatever you feel
33:21comfortable with
33:21and the people
33:23there will be trained
33:23if they operate
33:24the scheme
33:24they'll be trained
33:25to take you
33:26to a place of safety
33:27and understand
33:28you don't need
33:29to explain exactly
33:30you know
33:30why you need help
33:31just that you do
33:31need some help
33:32and they'll support you
33:33however you want
33:34to be supported
33:34and that's you know
33:35we put the power
33:36back to the person
33:36that's feeling unsafe
33:37so that can mean
33:39you know
33:39phoning a friend
33:40or family member
33:41or a taxi
33:42for them to get home
33:43reconnecting them
33:44with their friends
33:45in the venue
33:45if they've perhaps
33:46lost their friends
33:47or even
33:48we like to empower
33:49people to stay actually
33:50so getting rid of the person
33:51or kicking out the person
33:52from a
33:53if it's say for example
33:54a pub or something
33:55there's someone
33:55that's really causing
33:56them some distress
33:56it's actually getting
33:57that person out of the venue
33:59so that the person
33:59that feels unsafe
34:00can stay
34:01very much so
34:01that's brilliant
34:02that's so important
34:03exactly
34:04it's about sort of
34:05empowering that person
34:06and making them feel
34:07like it's not their fault
34:08and actually this is
34:09you know
34:09something to support them
34:10and actually it's not
34:11just for women either
34:12anybody can use the scheme
34:14so that's also a common
34:15misconception that it's
34:16just for girls
34:16but actually it's
34:17for anybody to use
34:18that is amazing
34:19and a very important message
34:20how did you actually
34:21get involved in
34:21Asphalangela
34:22Sylvia?
34:23well I've been working
34:23in hospitality
34:24for a long time
34:25how I cut my teeth really
34:26and I came across
34:27the initiative
34:28through working
34:29you know
34:29with hospitality
34:30and then I kind of
34:31transitioned to working
34:32with police forces
34:33and councils
34:34around kind of
34:35safe and night time
34:36spaces
34:36and I recognise
34:37the benefits
34:39of the scheme
34:39but also that it needed
34:40a bit of extra support
34:41so we set up
34:42the not-for-profit organisation
34:43developing
34:44you know
34:45taking down the barriers
34:46for anybody
34:46to implement the scheme
34:48by doing sort of
34:48free materials
34:49and sadly
34:50you know
34:51even now
34:51there's still a real need
34:53for it
34:53so statistics show
34:54that 7 in 10
34:55women have experienced
34:57sexual harassment
34:58of some form
34:58and of those victims
35:0075% have experienced
35:01it in a public space
35:02now obviously
35:03hospitality is only
35:04only a part of that picture
35:05but hospitality
35:08like to do
35:08what we can
35:09to help
35:09and also
35:10there's some
35:11compelling reasons
35:11to do it
35:12so 63%
35:13of women
35:14say that they
35:15would choose
35:16a venue
35:16that they know
35:17is operating
35:17this kind
35:17of safety initiative
35:18so yeah
35:19we want people
35:20to feel that
35:21if they are
35:21going to a venue
35:22and they see
35:23Ask for Angela
35:24they can get help
35:25if they need it
35:26and they can be
35:27reassured that they
35:27can socialise safely
35:28in that space
35:29and those stats
35:30speak volumes
35:30obviously
35:31it is needed
35:31people want to feel safe
35:33and that makes so much sense
35:34and you're
35:35Holly looking to make
35:36this mandatory
35:37because it sounds like
35:37it's already been picked up
35:38by so many places
35:39but you want it to be mandatory
35:40talk us a bit through that
35:42yeah I mean
35:43having worked
35:44in these kinds of environments
35:45and also visiting
35:46as a customer
35:47I've seen
35:47how important it is
35:49to have these in place
35:50in practice
35:50it's just such a simple scheme
35:53I mean you guys
35:54have worked really hard
35:54to make it
35:55pretty much foolproof
35:56for everyone to use
35:57and to follow
35:58whether it's people
35:59needing the help
35:59or people offering the help
36:00so it just seems silly
36:02for it to not be mandatory
36:03in these places
36:04unfortunately I think
36:07half the issue
36:08is creating these safe spaces
36:10and the other half
36:10of the issue
36:11is like tougher prosecution
36:13for people doing these things
36:15yeah absolutely
36:16and if there are any venues
36:17watching and they want
36:18to get involved
36:19how can they find out more
36:20so we have a website
36:21askforangela.co.uk
36:23and there's a range
36:24of different options
36:25from free
36:26up to you know
36:26paid training
36:27and other support
36:28and it's not just for venues
36:29so any public space
36:30we're able to work
36:31with transport providers
36:32and lots of different
36:33types of organisations
36:34to implement
36:35an effective scheme
36:35amazing
36:36and Holly just finally
36:37how do you think
36:38your mum would react
36:39to knowing that
36:40the incredible legacy
36:41that her name has now
36:42I think she'd be really proud
36:44I think now
36:45the askforangela scheme
36:46is actually worldwide
36:47so the US
36:48Australia as well now
36:50so I think she'd just
36:51be really happy to know
36:52that her name is
36:53being used to help
36:54other people in need
36:55yeah well it's clearly
36:56already having a positive
36:57impact and that's only
36:58going to continue to grow
36:58thank you both so much
37:00for coming in and
37:00telling us a bit more
37:01about it
37:02and you can find out
37:03more or sign up
37:04with the campaign
37:05at askforangela.co.uk
37:07now we're meeting a man
37:11who's combining his
37:12influence as an imam
37:13and police officer
37:14to tackle issues
37:15in his local community
37:16my name is Imad Chowdhury
37:20I'm a police officer
37:21for Westmanian Police
37:22I grew up in an area
37:25called Sparkbrook
37:26an inner city area
37:28within Birmingham
37:28it's a place
37:31where I'm really proud of
37:32and I still call it
37:33my home
37:34growing up
37:38one of the things
37:38that I noticed
37:39was that Sparkbrook
37:41has some challenges
37:42some of those challenges
37:44are around education
37:45depravity
37:47lack of role models
37:48I felt like I need
37:51to do something there
37:52and I realised
37:53that one of the things
37:54that would really
37:55make me feel fulfilled
37:56is to give back
37:58one of the ways
37:59you give back
38:00is you become a service
38:01to people
38:01and I felt like
38:02I can be myself
38:03within policing
38:03I also have another role
38:10within the community
38:11I'm an imam of a mosque
38:13there's an oneness of duty
38:15upon me
38:15towards community members
38:17so I serve
38:18in that particular
38:19platform as well
38:20my faith Islam
38:25and the law
38:26are massively connected
38:27if you look at it
38:28from a
38:28from basic perspective
38:30my faith talks
38:32about being good
38:33being a good person
38:34and being good to people
38:35and creating some
38:37form of peace
38:38and harmony around us
38:39so that the place
38:40where we live
38:41is nicer
38:43winning the Pride
38:52of Birmingham Award
38:53was a complete surprise
38:54to me
38:55not something I expected
38:55at all
38:56it was a really
38:57humbling experience
38:59it was to recognise
39:01how I'm unique
39:02being a police officer
39:04and being an imam
39:05at the same time
39:06marrying the values
39:07of both together
39:08and tackling an issue
39:09within our community
39:10in this particular case
39:12it was knife crime
39:13and it was really nice
39:16not just for myself
39:16to be recognised
39:17but more so
39:18for the work
39:19to be recognised
39:19Project Guardian
39:22is a unique project
39:23by West Midlands Police
39:24in response to
39:26the rise in knife crime
39:27and violence
39:28mainly concerning those
39:30under the age of 25
39:31I spent probably the best
39:34one and a half year
39:34so far of my policing career
39:35aligned to that project
39:37knife crime carries huge risk
39:39of the loss of life
39:41and in my experience
39:42as a police officer
39:43that has a huge impact
39:44on communities
39:45families
39:46the individuals themselves
39:48for me
39:50as somebody who sits
39:51as part of society
39:53in a role
39:54that's influential
39:55I feel like
39:56I need to do something
39:57pre-emptive
39:58because I don't believe
39:59that communities
40:00can remain passive
40:01about the issue
40:02we need to do something
40:03about it
40:03especially for our young people
40:04who are our future
40:06so what we did
40:08we designed
40:08a mosque-led
40:09community-led
40:10initiative
40:11that reduces
40:12the risk
40:13of criminality
40:14and serious violence
40:15amongst young people
40:16things like
40:17peer-to-peer mediation
40:18so how do young people
40:19resolve issues
40:20amongst themselves
40:21amicably, peacefully
40:22a session around
40:24exploring opportunity
40:26exploring who you want to be
40:27having that mindset
40:29where I want to achieve the best
40:31so what that does
40:33to young people
40:33it makes them feel empowered
40:35that I can actually do something
40:36and I can bring
40:37a positive influence
40:38because too often
40:39you tell young people
40:40that there is
40:41negative influence
40:42and also for the elderly
40:43members of our community
40:44it paints the young people
40:46in a better light
40:46that they're not all like that
40:48and there's a lot of good people
40:49out there
40:49well said Ahmad
40:54now before we get to
40:56today's Wanted Faces
40:57we thought it'd be worth
40:58sharing that around

41:14Crimewatch viewer
41:15he was quickly

41:18Carl Searle

41:25for imprisonment

41:30good results
