Croydon police are hoping they can jingle all the way to the cells with their most wanted crooks this Christmas.

Officers have released 12 images of people that are wanted by the police, either on recall to prison, failing to appear at court or in connection with a police investigation.

Detective Sergeant Steve George, from Croydon’s Wanted Offender Unit said some of the men have been wanted for some time.

DS George said some of them are wanted in connection with serious offences and it is in the best interest of the public that the police track them down.

He said: ““We are hopeful that somebody will know where these people are and get in touch.

“We’ve had some good successes with recent appeals, with a man who was wanted for more than three years located after we released his image to the media.

“You don’t have to leave your name or details and you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers with any information you have. They pass details to us anonymously and we can do the rest.”

Daniel Anderson, 25, is wanted in connection with a serious assault in Croydon. He has links to the Woking and Southwark areas.

Kadie Spence, 26, who has links to Croydon and other south London areas, is wanted on recall to prison having been previously convicted of possession of a firearm.

Keeroy Orlando Whittle, 32, is wanted by police in connection with an allegation of possession with intent to supply illegal drugs.

Mr Whittle has ties to the Mitcham and Croydon areas.

Police also want to speak to Michael Phelps, 25, who is wanted in connection with a serious assault in Croydon.

He has links to Croydon and Penge.

Faisal Butt, 36, is wanted in connection with an allegation of fraud and theft of a motor vehicle. Mr Butt has ties to Morden and South Croydon.

Officers are also trying to locate 30-year-old Jermaine Green who has charged with dangerous driving and criminal damage and is wanted for failing to attend Southwark Crown Court.

He has links to the Streatham area.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of any of the 12 people should contact police by calling 101 or contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
