Detective Constable Stuart Smillie, the officer investigating the attack said: "This was a very nasty attack and apparently unprovoked.

"I'm appealing to anyone who might have been at the club that night and seen the attack to call me but in particular I'd ask anyone who recognizes the man in the picture to call me.

"The club is well attended by people from all over north London, Essex and Herts - someone must know him."
