Detectives investigating an alleged terrorism offence are seeking the public’s help to identify a man seen in CCTV footage shortly after the incident during a protest outside Downing Street.
CCTV stills issued by police today show the man detectives wish to speak with walking through Charing Cross Railway Station shortly after the incident, on the evening of 31 October 2023.
Commander Dominic Murphy, head of the Met’s Counter Terrorism Command, said: “We’ve followed a number of lines of enquiry to try and identify this man and now we’re asking the public for their assistance.
“Take a good look at these pictures. Is this someone you recognise? If you have any information that could help us identify him, please get in touch. If you’re the man in the pictures, please contact us – we would like to speak with you.”
Anyone with information is asked to call 101, quoting reference 6578030/23.
To remain 100% anonymous, call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
The man is described as of Middle-Eastern appearance, in his mid-20s to early 30s, with a dark beard and moustache, and short hair closely shaved at the back and sides. He is wearing a dark top and bottoms, black shoes, and a black and white shemagh scarf.
Detectives launched an investigation after footage emerged on social media, allegedly showing a man outside Downing Street chanting in support of Hamas – a proscribed organisation – on the evening of 31 October.
