Clapham chemical attack suspect may be dead, police believe

Officers hunting Abdul Ezedi say he was last seen near Southwark Bridge on Wednesday night

Detectives hunting the Clapham attack suspect Abdul Ezedi believe he is either being harboured from capture or is dead, with no trace of him for more than 100 hours despite a massive manhunt.

Police say there has been no sighting of him since last Wednesday evening, after he allegedly threw a corrosive substance at a woman - who is still sedated and may lose the sight in her right eye - and two young children aged three and eight.
