Police have issued an urgent appeal to trace Maher Maaroufe, 22, after student Sabita Thanwani was found dead at her central London accommodation
Sabita Thanwani, 19, was found dead in her halls in Sebastian Street, Clerkenwell early on Saturday morning.
"He has links across London, particularly in the Marble Arch, Edgware Road, and Lewisham areas. He is also known to travel to Cambridgeshire. "Officers are making enquiries to trace those who had contact with him, but I would ask anyone who knew him who has yet to speak with police to please get in touch. I would again ask the public not to approach him if they see him, but call 999.
Officers found her suffering from serious injuries and despite treatment from the emergency services she was pronounced dead at the scene. “Tackling violent crime is the Met’s top priority. Police officers, including forensic specialists, remain at the scene. Local people will also see additional police in the area. If you have any concerns about safety in and around Clerkenwell, please speak with those officers.”
