Owami Davies CCTV images released of last night she was seen

The Metropolitan Police have released new images and CCTV footage of 24-year-old student nurse, Owami Davies, who has been missing for four weeks.

Three men have been arrested on suspicion of murder in connections with Owami’s disappearance. They were taken to a South London police station where they all remain in custody.

Owami was last seen at around midnight in Derby Road, West Croydon on Thursday, July 7.

The Met have released images of Owami on the night she was last seen in a shop and CCTV of her walking in Derby Road.

Owami’s mother, Nicol Davies, said: “There are many friends and family who love and care for Owami and all of them want to see her safe return.

“Owami – if you see this appeal please believe you are not in any trouble, we just want you to come back to us. Please leave a message if you can to let us know you are OK, we are so very worried about you.

“This is such a terrible time for all those who love Owami and I am pleading for anyone who can help find her to contact police. Every day we hope to hear the news that Owami is coming back to us, your help might make it so.”

In particular, officers are keen to speak to the driver of a white van that was parked in Derby Road.

Owami was in the company of a man and crossed the road just as the van pulled out.

The van driver would have had a good opportunity to see them both clearly and officers are appealing this possible witness to come forward.

Detective Chief Inspector Nigel Penney said: “We are working hard to find Owami but we really do need the public’s help. Owami is very vulnerable and the longer she is missing the more we worry that she has come to harm.

“As a result of extensive CCTV enquiries we have a clearer idea of Owami’s movements, but we still need the public to contact us and tell us what they know.

“‘We would obviously like to speak to the driver of the white van that passed Owami in Derby Road, but anyone with information should call.

“Owami’s family are living through a nightmare and are desperate for news. I would ask anyone who thinks they can help to come forward – as the days pass the anxiety of Owami’s family will only get worse and your call could be the one they are praying for.”

Any witnesses or anyone with any information is asked to call police on 101 or contact via Twitter @MetCC. Please quote reference 22MIS025307.
