“We maintain our relentless day and night 24/7 approach to locate our most wanted suspects. We recognise that every day these people remain at large is a day which leaves them able to commit more crime and impact on victims and more broadly the community.

"We ask the public who have information which may assist our efforts to share this information with us. This can be in confidence via Crimstoppers or via our local 101 reporting process. We encourage anybody who features on our most wanted list to immediately hand themselves in.

"We will continue our relentless approach to locate these people and do so to protect the public and deliver justice for victims."
