Dear Neighbourhood Watch coordinator

During the evening and into the night of Saturday 6th August 2011 public disorder and criminal damage to residential and business premises ensued within the London borough of Haringey.  This has been widely reported in the media both at local, regional and national level.

On Sunday 7th August and Monday 8th August further disorder has resulted in criminal damage to shops, residential buildings and vehicles being badly damaged across London.

The Metropolitan Police Service has dealt with several incidents of ‘copycat criminal activity’ across London which has resulted in over 450 arrests for criminal offences.  The MPS is aware of the impact this is having on our community and is making every effort to combat further criminal activity by increasing the levels of high visibility patrols across London.

At this time criminal activity is taking place across a number of areas.  There is no intelligence of specific targeting of identified business premises.

Operation Withern has been set up to investigate the disorder and violence in parts of London over the past few days.  The Operation Withern team will investigate and identify those people responsible to ensure that they are brought to justice. 

An incident room has been set up and anyone with information should call the major investigation team on

020 8345 4142.

The MPS has extra resources on duty across the capital.  We are carefully monitoring any intelligence and ensuring we have our resources in the right places to support the ongoing policing plan.  We will continue to respond to the needs of London’s communities and deal with any incidents of criminality.

People with business premises may wish to take the following precautionary measures. Please pass this information to people you may know that this could assist:

• Where possible retail premises should be suitably staffed with security guards
• Ensure staff report any suspicious activity to security and/or police
• Consider regular checks of the building and surrounding area
• Identify areas that are vulnerable to forced entry
• Make sure all service doors are kept locked and secure when not in use
• Ensure your CCTV system is fully operational
• In case of an emergency is there a record of the names of keyholders who can be contacted
• Consider removing high value goods from display windows overnight
• Consider keeping as little cash as possible on the premises
• Ensure that your premises are secure and if fitted your alarm systems are fully operational
• In the event of a non emergency, call the police on non emergency number 101
• In the event of an emergency, call the emergency number 999

Suspect images released re disorder

Operation Withern is investigating the serious disorder and violence that has been affecting parts of London.
Today (Tuesday 9 August) police are releasing the first of many images of suspects.

Operation Withern's priority is to bring to justice those who have committed violent and criminal acts.

These CCTV images are from incidents of looting in Croydon over last night and in Norwood Road SE27 in the early hours of this morning.

To view the images visit http://www.met.police.uk/rioterswanted/

In addition Flickr is hosting the same photos so that the public have as many opportunities as possible to help the MPS identify those responsible: http://www.flickr.com/photos/metropolitanpolice/sets/72157627267892973/

If anyone recognises individuals in the photographs or has any information about the violence and disorder that has occurred they

Dear Neighbourhood Watch coordinator
I am doing my best to send you as few emails as possible so have put a few together in one email:

Officer/police dog injury update
The serious criminal unrest experienced in London over the past three days has left dozens of officers injured, some seriously.

111 officers have been reported injured across London after having experienced unprecedented violence directed at them as they have been policing London, striving to protect the public, local communities and property.

Many officers are still undergoing hospital treatment, some requiring surgery. Injuries range from fractured bones, serious head injuries, concussion, cuts and sprains, even injured eyes from smashed and thrown glass.

Officers have been attacked with bricks, bottles, planks of wood and other missiles. In some incidents, officers have been hit by motor vehicles, seriously risking their lives and those of the public.

Five police dogs have been injured as they have undertaken their duties in dealing with the unrest.
Linpol Luke, also known as Obi, sustained a serious head injury from a thrown brick and requires further treatment.
Marshfield Mia was injured after being hit by a thrown bottle. Both dogs were injured on duty on Sunday.
On Monday, Minstrel Blaze, Quirk Ruby and Zach all sustained injuries, including broken teeth and cuts from thrown missiles.

Mounted section officers have played a vital role and after successive shifts facing hostile crowds the officers and their horses are tired yet no injuries have been sustained and they will continue to play their part in keeping London safe.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Steve Kavanagh said:

"The level of violence directed against our officers as they have bravely done their duty to keep London safe is unprecedented. We haveover 50 officers who have needed treatment - some may even require surgery. Our dog units and mounted section have faced tough conditions
and some have suffered injuries also.

"We are dealing with dangerous criminals; men and women, boys and girls, who are willing to put lives at risk and target the very people that are here to keep our communities safe.

"But this is not just about my officers who continue to do their very best. This is also about the damage these thugs are doing to our neighbourhoods. Local shops and businesses have been ruined, householders have been left homeless and great damage done to our local
services and infrastructure.

"We are now undertaking an operation to identify those responsible and to bring them to justice. We will not tolerate this dangerous behaviour."

Anyone with information relating to the violent unrest experienced in London is urged to contact the incident room hotline, to report any information which may assist investigators as they bring arrests against those responsible for looting, disorder and violence. Call the incident
room hotline on 020 8345 4142 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Arrests update
The Metropolitan Police Service has now arrested a total of 768 people in connection with violence, disorder and looting across London.

Since 9pm on Tuesday 9 August, 81 arrests have been made for various offences.

These include:

- At approx 23:00hrs, in a proactive operation, officers executed a search warrant at an address in Church Road, Harlesden, NW10. A mobile phone was found containing pictures of a looted shop and jewellery. A gold chain matching the photo on the phone was also found.

A man in his late teens / early 20s was arrested for handling stolen goods and is in custody.

 At 00:30hrs officers on patrol in West Ella Road, Harlesden, NW10 arrested 19 people on suspicion of conspiracy to commit burglary after they were seen standing by two transit vans appearing to be preparing to go looting.

The men, aged approximately between 18 and 30-years are currently in custody.

Police are appealing for members of the public only to contact the Operation Withern Major Investigation Team number (020 8345 4142) if they have specific information about those individuals who have been involved in the violence and disorder that has occurred across London over the past few days.

The team are receiving a significant number of calls that are not directly related to their investigation. These calls are impeding the ability of those with relevant information to get through to officers.

Members of the public who would like up-to-date information or advice about the disorder should visit the Metropolitan Police Service website: www.met.police.uk

You may also wish to consider subscribing to the official police messaging system 'Neighbourhood Link'. To subscribe to this service please visit: www.neighbourhoodlink.met.police.uk

9 August 2011

Dear Neighbourhood Watch Co-ordinator,

We hope very much that you and your Watch are keeping safe in the current dreadful state of affairs locally, all over London, and now extending across the country.

If you have been personally affected, we extend to you our sincere good wishes and hope that the levels of violence and lawlessness will diminish as quickly as possible. 

It’s important that our Watches are kept informed of what is happening to allay rumour and unnecessary scare-mongering.   It’s also important that they pass on any information they may have about youngsters who have been taking part in the rioting and looting. 

Pauline Syddell has been sending out regular information as have the SNT sergeants.    Please ensure that information from them is passed on to your Watch and that your more vulnerable members are being reassured and supported.   Probably our most important role as Co-ordinators at the moment is to do just that and to continue to build the positive sense of community that already exists in the Watches.

We will ensure that there is time set aside at our next Haringey Association of Neighbourhood Watches meeting in September to discuss the aftermath of the situation and to share ideas about ways forward into the future.

More details of the meeting will be forwarded later.

Keep safe!

With very best wishes,
Robert How (HANHW Chair) and the Committee

Dear Neighbourhood Watch coordinator

During the evening and into the night of Saturday 6th August 2011 public disorder and criminal damage to residential and business premises ensued within the London borough of Haringey.  This has been widely reported in the media both at local, regional and national level.

On Sunday 7th August and Monday 8th August further disorder has resulted in criminal damage to shops, residential buildings and vehicles being badly damaged across London.

The Metropolitan Police Service has dealt with several incidents of ‘copycat criminal activity’ across London which has resulted in over 450 arrests for criminal offences.  The MPS is aware of the impact this is having on our community and is making every effort to combat further criminal activity by increasing the levels of high visibility patrols across London.

At this time criminal activity is taking place across a number of areas.  There is no intelligence of specific targeting of identified business premises.

Operation Withern has been set up to investigate the disorder and violence in parts of London over the past few days.  The Operation Withern team will investigate and identify those people responsible to ensure that they are brought to justice. 

An incident room has been set up and anyone with information should call the major investigation team on

Dear Neighbourhood Watch coordinator
I am doing my best to send you as few emails as possible so have put a few together in one email:

Officer/police dog injury update
The serious criminal unrest experienced in London over the past three days has left dozens of officers injured, some seriously.

111 officers have been reported injured across London after having experienced unprecedented violence directed at them as they have been policing London, striving to protect the public, local communities and property.

Many officers are still undergoing hospital treatment, some requiring surgery. Injuries range from fractured bones, serious head injuries, concussion, cuts and sprains, even injured eyes from smashed and thrown glass.

Officers have been attacked with bricks, bottles, planks of wood and other missiles. In some incidents, officers have been hit by motor vehicles, seriously risking their lives and those of the public.

Five police dogs have been injured as they have undertaken their duties in dealing with the unrest.
Linpol Luke, also known as Obi, sustained a serious head injury from a thrown brick and requires further treatment.
Marshfield Mia was injured after being hit by a thrown bottle. Both dogs were injured on duty on Sunday.
On Monday, Minstrel Blaze, Quirk Ruby and Zach all sustained injuries, including broken teeth and cuts from thrown missiles.

Mounted section officers have played a vital role and after successive shifts facing hostile crowds the officers and their horses are tired yet no injuries have been sustained and they will continue to play their part in keeping London safe.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Steve Kavanagh said:

"The level of violence directed against our officers as they have bravely done their duty to keep London safe is unprecedented. We haveover 50 officers who have needed treatment - some may even require surgery. Our dog units and mounted section have faced tough conditions
and some have suffered injuries also.

"We are dealing with dangerous criminals; men and women, boys and girls, who are willing to put lives at risk and target the very people that are here to keep our communities safe.

"But this is not just about my officers who continue to do their very best. This is also about the damage these thugs are doing to our neighbourhoods. Local shops and businesses have been ruined, householders have been left homeless and great damage done to our local
services and infrastructure.

"We are now undertaking an operation to identify those responsible and to bring them to justice. We will not tolerate this dangerous behaviour."

Anyone with information relating to the violent unrest experienced in London is urged to contact the incident room hotline, to report any information which may assist investigators as they bring arrests against those responsible for looting, disorder and violence. Call the incident
room hotline on 020 8345 4142 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Arrests update
The Metropolitan Police Service has now arrested a total of 768 people in connection with violence, disorder and looting across London.

Since 9pm on Tuesday 9 August, 81 arrests have been made for various offences.

These include:

- At approx 23:00hrs, in a proactive operation, officers executed a search warrant at an address in Church Road, Harlesden, NW10. A mobile phone was found containing pictures of a looted shop and jewellery. A gold chain matching the photo on the phone was also found.

A man in his late teens / early 20s was arrested for handling stolen goods and is in custody.

 At 00:30hrs officers on patrol in West Ella Road, Harlesden, NW10 arrested 19 people on suspicion of conspiracy to commit burglary after they were seen standing by two transit vans appearing to be preparing to go looting.

The men, aged approximately between 18 and 30-years are currently in custody.

Police are appealing for members of the public only to contact the Operation Withern Major Investigation Team number (020 8345 4142) if they have specific information about those individuals who have been involved in the violence and disorder that has occurred across London over the past few days.

The team are receiving a significant number of calls that are not directly related to their investigation. These calls are impeding the ability of those with relevant information to get through to officers.

9 August 2011

Dear Neighbourhood Watch Co-ordinator,

We hope very much that you and your Watch are keeping safe in the current dreadful state of affairs locally, all over London, and now extending across the country.

If you have been personally affected, we extend to you our sincere good wishes and hope that the levels of violence and lawlessness will diminish as quickly as possible. 

It’s important that our Watches are kept informed of what is happening to allay rumour and unnecessary scare-mongering.   It’s also important that they pass on any information they may have about youngsters who have been taking part in the rioting and looting. 

Pauline Syddell has been sending out regular information as have the SNT sergeants.    Please ensure that information from them is passed on to your Watch and that your more vulnerable members are being reassured and supported.   Probably our most important role as Co-ordinators at the moment is to do just that and to continue to build the positive sense of community that already exists in the Watches.

We will ensure that there is time set aside at our next Haringey Association of Neighbourhood Watches meeting in September to discuss the aftermath of the situation and to share ideas about ways forward into the future.

More details of the meeting will be forwarded later.

Keep safe!

With very best wishes,
Robert How (HANHW Chair) and the Committee

Dear Neighbourhood Watch coordinator

Haringey Council have arranged for a community clean up tomorrow to show the strength of community spirit in Tottenham.

As Tottenham High Road re-opens on Saturday following last weekend’s devastating disturbances, this is a chance for people to unite in efforts to get the area back on its feet.

Haringey councillors and volunteers will be out on the streets tomorrow morning (Saturday, August 13) aiding the clear-up operation and showing support to local traders.

Anyone who would like to help is invited by the Council to come along and lend the community their backing – either by sweeping the streets, helping to clear rubbish from affected homes and businesses, or simply popping into local stores to do some shopping.

"This is our chance to celebrate Tottenham’s unique strength of character and unity in the face of recent disturbances.", said a council spokesman.

Those interested in taking part are invited to gather on the green on Tottenham High Road by Rheola Close, just south of the junction with Lansdowne Road, from 10.30am for an 11am start.

Note: Tottenham High Road will be re-opened on Friday evening. Lansdowne Road, Dowsett Road and Factory Lane remain closed until further notice

A clear and unified vision to return Haringey to everyday life and business

The events of Saturday 6th, Sunday 7th and Monday 8th August were unprecedented in scale and breadth. Monday night was the worst the MPS has seen in current memory for unacceptable levels of widespread looting, fires and disorder. Officers put themselves on the line to protect life and communities.

Officers across Haringey are working hard to engage with the local community and businesses.

Regular meetings are being held between police, community representatives and partners including the local authority and fire brigade.

Several key members of the community from ward panels, trading associations, and Independent Advisor Group (IAG) representatives attended a meeting at the police patrol base in Wood Green on 11.08.11 to discuss concerns and find ways to drive the borough forward and back to normality as soon as possible.

Haringey Borough Commander Sandra Looby, who attended the meeting, said: “One thing that has been incredibly apparent over the last few days has been the overwhelming desire of the community to unite against the disorder. There is a clear and unified vision to return Haringey to everyday life and business.

“The community have actively embraced police and worked with police to unite against wanton criminality. We all share a determination to bring to justice those responsible for damaging the very fabric of our community and to move forward.

“Already those that have harmed the community have seen the wrath of the law, with more than 900 arrests and counting across London.

“We are working together with our partners to make Haringey a safe borough for young and old alike and to ensure that those most affected by the disorder receive the appropriate support. We will do everything in our power to ensure that businesses are up and running as soon as possible.

“I would sincerely like to thank the community for their patience and their messages of support. I hear of people talking to officers on cordons or on patrol in the street and thanking them for their efforts. There are many other members of the police service, including detectives and members of police staff, that have been working around the clock to deliver the levels of policing you have been seeing. I know they all really appreciate your kind words.

"People have shown the community spirit that is representative of Haringey and together we will return the borough to the safe and harmonious area that it deserves to be.”

Clasford Stirling MBE, a community developer who has worked on the Broad Water Farm Estate for 32 years, said: "This unity of all the different agencies in the borough working together will not stop until we improve our borough and try to address what has happened and bring our lives back to normality. I am proud to be part of this united approach.

"I understand all the problems going on and I strongly disagree with how people have echoed their frustration in the wrong way, putting their own lives and the lives of police and others at risk. The police are part of our community and everyone should welcome them. The bravery of police to help residents during the disorder is to be commended."

Hello everyone.

I just thought I'd give you an update on the current situation and the proposed changes.

The team have been subject to long hours under some difficult circumstances. All have assisted in preserving the scene at the shooting incident and from then on have been involved in taskings off and on the borough. We have had regular engagement with the youths from the estate and sort to reduce any tension regarding the outbreaks of disorder. It would appear that thankfully things are returning back to normal and we would hope to revert back to normal duties by early next week.

The decision on the reduction on SN Sgts has been delayed for another week. The changes will mean that Hornsey will amalgamate with Stroud Green, Highgate with Crouch End and Alexandra Palace with Fortis Green. Muswell Hill will stay unchanged.

Wednesday 17 August:

Royal visit
Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall visited the Community Assistance Centre in Tottenham Green Leisure Centre, Philip Lane today, Wednesday 17 August, to speak to some of the people affected by the disorder, that had been displaced due to the damage caused by fire.

They also spoke with Officers from Haringey Police, London Fire Brigade and the London Ambulance Service about their experiences during the disorder.

Tuesday 16 August:

Uniformed Youth Groups Stand up for London’s Communities

Following the violence and criminality witnessed on London’s streets last week, young people across various uniformed youth groups in London are standing up to challenge the image and perception this has created of youth, and remind communities of the positive contribution that most young people can, and do make to our city.

On Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th August 2011, members of the Volunteer Police Cadets, and other Uniformed Youth groups as part of YOU London and Youth United, will take to the streets and work with their communities to help repair some of the damage inflicted during the recent disturbances.

Young people in some of the worst affected boroughs, including Haringey, Lewisham, Hackney, Bromley, Croydon and Lambeth, will be visiting businesses and residents who have had their property damaged, to find out how they have been affected, and what more the police and uniformed youth groups can do to help reassure and rebuild their confidence and livelihoods.

For example, over the next two days, cadets in Haringey will be painting and decorating boarded up shop fronts on Tottenham High Road, creating a ‘Peace Wall’ as has been done in Peckham and Manchester, to help unite the community. They will also be visiting local care homes, handing out crime prevention advice to local residents. In Lambeth on Wednesday Morning, cadets will be distributing plants and planters donated by the local B&Q, to the worst affected and most vulnerable residents and business owners.

B&Q, ASDA and Waitrose are sponsoring this event by providing t.shirts, packed lunches and equipment for all young people involved.

YOU London is a unique partnership of the oldest, largest and most experienced uniformed youth organisations in the capital, from the Army Cadets to the Scouts and Volunteer Police Cadets.

Being a member of a uniformed youth group provides young people with the opportunity to develop their confidence and social skills within reasonable boundaries, achieve a sense of identity and respect in a safe environment, make friends, gain qualifications, and have unique experiences which will equip them to become capable, contributory and socially responsible members of their communities.

There are around 90,000 young volunteers who are members of uniformed youth organisations in London, and 1.25 million nationally as part of Youth United. Uniformed youth groups rely on adult volunteers to keep going. Across London this week young people will also be giving the public information on how they can volunteer to help run a uniformed youth group to provide similar opportunities for more young Londoners.

16 year-old Jamilla Walcott, a Crouch End resident, has been a Volunteer Police Cadet for 3 years, of the disturbances seen in Tottenham and across London, which she witnesses while visiting a relative in Croydon, she said: "I was shocked when I saw it on the news and I looked out of the window and saw the Reeves furniture store on fire. I don't think that  anything can justify what happened, people took advantage of a situation."

16 year-old Marie-Chantale Dable has lived on the Broad Water Farm Estate for seven years, she said: "I've been a Voluntary Police Cadet since I was 14 , before that I used to get myself into trouble. I applied to be a cadet myself to change things and I wanted to see things how officers see them, now I can see things both ways. I would like to be a police officer."

Safer Neighbourhoods Chief Inspector Sonia Davis (pictured with young people taking part in painting the hoardings) said: "It's genuinely heartwarming to see local young people working together to make the area better. They are showing an incredible level of enthusiasm and care and clearly share our commitment and determination to return Haringey to business as usual."

Additional officers continue to be out on the streets of the capital providing a highly visible presence, as our policing operation continues.

The number of officers out on the streets of London has been planned out on a daily basis after a thorough assessment of what intelligence and information is available to police and the forthcoming events across London.

Officers on duty are a mix of mutual aid, borough officers, public order-trained officers and specialist central units.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner Steve Kavanagh, said: "I know that there will be substantial interest in the number of officers that we have on duty over the coming days. I want Londoners to know that we will continue to have a very visible, hugely increased number of police officers out on our streets.

"We are out across London arresting those people who brought crime, disorder, fear and violence to out streets. We will relentlessly pursue them, as our communities deserve.

"Our additional officers, including those on mutual aid, are working to local borough senior officers. We're taking the opportunity of using our extra officers firstly to carry out arrests as part of Operation Withern and then to support local officers dealing with those crimes most affecting the communities where they are deployed."

We will continue to have a substantial police presence out on the streets of London during this week, and going forward with our plans under constant review.

Over the course of the weekend (13 and 14 August) approximately 16,000 police officers were on duty over a 24-hour period.

Dear Neighbourhood Watch coordinator

Tonight, Thursday 18 August, at 20:00hrs, there will be a BBC Crimewatch Special featuring the violence and disorder across London.

The Met have now charged more than 1,000 people in connection with last week's violence and disorder.

A total of 1,015 people have been charged with various offences out of the 1,781 arrests so far.

In total the Operation Withern investigation team includes around 500 officers. The enquiry is being led by the Homicide and Serious Crime Command with support from detectives, uniformed officers and police staff from across the MPS.

We estimate that we currently have around 20,000 hours of CCTV footage to view, although this is likely to increase as we gather further material from CCTV, the public and other sources. Over the weekend Operation Withern had 125 officers dedicated to going through CCTV.

One CCTV clip on the Crimewatch Special from approximately 22:20hrs on Monday, 8 August shows an innocent member of the public outside the Carphone Warehouse shop in Clapham Junction. The man tries to stop a large group of trouble makers from smashing the Carphone Warehouse shop window further but they attack him with a fire extinguisher spraying it directly in his face. Police would like to hear from the victim who is yet to be identified; they would also like to speak to anyone who witnessed the incident.

Forensic and crime scene examiners have been working on more than 1,100 crime scenes and more than 300 forensic submissions have already been made to labs.

The MPS is working closely with the CPS to ensure that cases are processed quickly. A large number of people have appeared in court and while some have already been convicted and received prison sentences many cases have been remanded to Crown Court.

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stephen Kavanagh said:


"I want to thank all those people who have come forward with information already.

"What we need to do now is build on that sense of community that we have seen across the UK. There will be images and CCTV of incidents across London coming out.

"Please keep checking our Metropolitan Police Service Flickr page and your local papers to see if you can help us to identify those who were part of the disorder across London.

"It is with the public's support that we will make a real difference and continue to fill the courts with the people who shattered our communities on those nights."

There have been approx 7.8 million hits on the suspect images on our Flickr page. Please go to see if you recognise any of the wanted suspects.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/metropolitanpolice/sets/72157627267892973/

We continue to appeal for witnesses and information in relation to the disorder across London. Anyone with information relating to any aspect of the incident is asked to contact the Operation Withern incident room on 020 8345 4142; if you wish to remain anonymous contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Haringey Borough Commander, Sandra Looby has written an open letter to Haringey community members following the recent disorder, expressing the commitment of local police to listen to the community and together forge forward to a safer Haringey:

Dear Haringey community member,
We have been working tirelessly with our partner agencies and local community groups in order to understand how we move forward following the unprecedented scenes of disorder experienced in Tottenham and across London.

The widespread looting and deliberate damage caused to businesses and homes was the worst seen for many years and the fact that people have lost their homes, possessions and livelihoods is a great sadness to us. We were aware of the community’s concerns following the shooting of Mark Duggan and were taking advice from community representatives; however we had no indication to suggest that Haringey would be subject to such extreme violence.

We have continued to engage with the wider community whilst the Independent Police Complaints Commission rightly carries out an independent investigation into the shooting of Mark Duggan and supports his family. We will continue to listen to the concerns of Mark’s family and the wider communities as the investigation continues.

These have been some of the most difficult and challenging times for our officers who have been incredibly brave in their actions to protect the community. Our determination to support and protect the community has not wavered. Your dedicated local Safer Neighbourhood team officers continue to patrol the streets of Haringey and to offer reassurance and support to those affected by the distressing events. Thank you for the overwhelming messages of support that have helped the morale of our officers and backroom staff.

Over the next month we are committed to attend a series of listening events across the borough, so that we may understand not only the impact of these terrible events, but also how we move forward as one community in Haringey.

We recognise that the vast majority of the community abhors the disorder that took place and have a deep regard for the area in which they live. We share with you those feelings and a determination to return Haringey to everyday life and business as soon as possible and to ensure those that harmed the community are brought to justice through the courts.

The operation to trace those responsible for the disorder and damage to our community and put them before the courts continues and we ask that if you have any information, or recognise any of the people in the photographs on the Met site www.met.police.uk/disordersuspects , to call the Operation Withern Major Investigation Team on 020 8345 4142 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

We are determined to do all we can to build ever stronger community links and forge forward to a safer Haringey with the support of the community.

Yours sincerely,
Sandra Looby
Haringey Borough Commander
