Police Re-Issue Appeal For Missing 15-Year-old

Police in Barnet have issued a fresh appeal for help to find a vulnerable 15-year-old who has been missing since June.

Sabriye Mohamud went missing from a care home in Nottingham on 10 June 2013. He has connections to Barnet but despite a few unconfirmed sightings, he has still not been found.

Sabriye is black, 5' 4", slim and looks younger than his years.

PC Lisette French, Barnet Police Missing Persons Unit, said: "It has been more than three months now since Sabriye went missing. His family and police are becoming increasingly worried about his welfare.

"Given his age and his background, he is obviously very vulnerable and I would urge anyone who knows where Sabriye is or has any other information to contact us as a matter of urgency."

Anyone with any information is asked to contact the Barnet Missing Persons Unit or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
