It will be much harder for these criminals to hide from the law.
It is hoped that the action will encourage people to come forward with information which could help locate them.
The public appeal will also feature on BBC’S Crimewatch Roadshow today and operational teams will be working to respond to any live intelligence received. Chief Inspector Jim Corbett, from Operation Venice, said: ‘These offenders have callously robbed, stolen or burgled from communities, commuters and tourists within London, often using violence and weapons, for their own financial gain.‘We are relentlessly pursuing violent offenders and bringing them to justice, but we need the help of the public as well.
‘All information is treated confidentially and if you don’t want to speak to us, you can contact Crimestoppers who are totally independent of the police.‘If you see someone or you know the current location of someone who is wanted, please dial 999. Do not put yourself at risk, or confront the individual. Find an appropriate place to make the phone call where you cannot be seen or heard.
