Manhunt for escaped Manchester prisoner deemed ‘risk’ to others

Police are urgently appealing for information about a escaped prisoner in Greater Manchester who is deemed a risk to others – with the public warned “do not approach him”.

Marwan Jumaa, 20, is serving a sentence for attacking two women and is considered a risk to himself as well as other people, Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said.

He absconded after being transferred from a secure hospital facility to North Manchester Hospital for medical treatment on Tuesday evening.

Jumaa is described as having a skinny build, with short dark hair and is about 5ft 10in. He is believed to have links to Bury, Prestwich and Crumpsall in Greater Manchester, as well as Leeds and London.

Det Ch Insp Abigail Cronin said: “We are urging anybody to come forward who may have information about Marwan’s whereabouts.

“I recognise that this may heighten concern within the community. However, I want to assure you that we have officers working around the clock to find Marwan and return him to hospital as soon as possible.

“If sighted, do not approach him, please call 999 immediately.”
