London and Cardiff searches for 'Wales' most wanted man' Mohammed Ege
- Published
More than 10 properties have been visited by police in Cardiff and London in the past week in the search for the man they say is "Wales' most wanted".
Mohammed Ali Ege, 41, is wanted in connection to the mistaken murder of 17-year-old Aamir Siddiqi in Roath, Cardiff, in 2010.
Aamir was stabbed at his home after his killers, hitmen Jason Richards and Ben Hope, went to the wrong house.
South Wales Police said there are "no plans to scale down the search".
Mr Ege escaped in India on 12 April 2017 while in a New Delhi railway station toilet as officers prepared to extradite him back to the UK.
South Wales Police Det Ch Insp Paul Giess: "Two years on, his current whereabouts are unknown but we are still as determined as ever to find him."
Previously Mr Geiss said Mr Ege has had access to different identification which would allow him to travel extensively on false documentation.
