Urgent: Reward to find Most Wanted Muridi Bahdon over knifepoint robberies on London Underground
We are offering a reward of up to £5,000 for information that helps find 23-year-old Muridi Bahdon.
The suspect is wanted for questioning over two recent serious incidents on the London Underground involving a knife.
The two violent incidents are as follows:
- Saturday 1 July at around 6.15pm, Earls Court station: Victim was queuing at a shop in the station when a man demanded he handed over his watch. The victim attempted to fend off the armed man with the coat in his hand but was lunged at with a large knife in an attempt to stab him in the stomach. Fortunately, as the suspect fled the scene, the victim sought safety behind the shop counter.
- Tuesday 4 July at around 1.40pm, Sloane Square station: A different victim boarded a District Line train when he was approached by a man who sat beside him and began to stare at his watch. Feeling nervous and uncomfortable, the victim left the train at Sloane Square but was quickly approached by the man who produced a large knife and demanded his watch. As the victim tried to escape, he was attacked with a knife, suffering slash injuries to his head. He also endured lacerations to his neck, shoulders and legs. As the victim made a desperate attempt to escape, his shirt was ripped from his body during the assault.
The public are asked not to approach Muridi Bahdon.
