Police forces across Wales have highlighted a number of people they say are currently wanted in connection with alleged crimes, and are asking the public to help with information on their whereabouts.
What has been published
The collated list, compiled from appeals shared by forces across Wales and published on July 24–25, 2026, includes names and details for a variety of alleged offences. To keep the information as accurate as possible the compiler limited inclusions to appeals posted since 19 June 2026.
Not all forces publish the same material in the same way. South Wales Police posts active appeals on its Facebook page but does not feature every open case online. North Wales Police retains some older appeals on its site and could not confirm whether every online entry remained active. Gwent Police and Dyfed‑Powys Police provided up‑to‑date entries for the list.
Notable entries
One of the clearest examples on the list is Mohammed Ali Ege, 46, for whom a £10,000 reward has been offered. He is wanted in connection with the 2010 murder of a 17‑year‑old. Records show he was arrested in India in 2013, later escaped Indian custody in 2017 while awaiting extradition, and remains sought by police.
Another name included is Alan Tait, a 69‑year‑old from the Ammanford area who is wanted by Dyfed‑Powys Police in connection with an alleged harassment matter.
How to help
If you have information about any of the people listed, the public is urged to contact police through the usual channels:
- Call your local police on 101 and quote the relevant reference number supplied with each appeal.
- Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
The publishers of the list have asked forces for full, comprehensive wanted lists but say those requests were declined, which is why the compilation is limited to recent appeals and to forces that confirmed current entries.
| Force | Note |
|---|---|
| South Wales Police | Shares active appeals on Facebook; not all cases featured online |
| North Wales Police | Some older appeals remain online; force unable to confirm current status |
| Gwent Police | Appeals up to date |
| Dyfed‑Powys Police | Appeals up to date; includes Alan Tait (Ammanford) |
The list published on July 24–25 is not presented as a comprehensive register of every person wanted in Wales. It is intended as a public prompt: police say they make every effort to trace suspects before publication, and that not all active cases will appear online.
Local readers who recognise anyone on the published list, or who have information that might assist enquiries, should use the contact routes above rather than approaching anyone directly.
