Sex offender on the run from mental health unit

A convicted sex offender is on the loose after escaping from a London mental hospital.

Ahmed Mohammed, 25, gave staff the slip on Saturday at the secure medical facility in Southall where he was being held. He was sentenced in 2002 to a hospital order for the indecent assault of two women.

Police warned that Mohammed, who has links with the Wandsworth and Tooting areas, was a danger to women and should not be approached. He did not take any medication with him.

The black Somalian is 6ft and of average build with short hair and clean-shaven. He was last seen wearing a blue shirt, a navy "McKenzie" jacket, grey jogging bottoms and black Nike trainers. Anyone with information about his whereabouts should call 999 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
