Q&A: TPims explained

Suspects must wear an electronic tag

A terror suspect who has gone missing after changing into a burka at a west London mosque was subject to an order designed to restrict his movements and activities.

As police hunt for 27-year-old Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed, we look at this order, otherwise known as a TPim, to find out what it involves and what people think of it.

How many people are subject to them?

Are the suspects always identified?

When was the system introduced?

What did it replace?

Do TPims work?
