A reward of £7,500 is being offered to anyone who can help in the search for a man branded a "danger to women". Police have been searching for 66-year-old Anthony Manson for a year and Crimestoppers is now appealing to members of the public for help finding him.
Manson is wanted by Gwent Police for a number of offences committed in Monmouthshire, including grievous bodily harm and other serious accusations. He has now been on the run for a year, Crimestoppers says, and is known to change his appearance frequently to stay one step ahead of the law.
He has also used aliases such as ‘Tai,’ ‘Ibrahim Mohammad,’ ‘Ibrahim Vilafane,’ and ‘Antonio Angel Villafane.’ Crimestoppers says that Manson is considered a serious danger to women.
Hayley Fry, Crimestoppers National Manager for Wales: " Manson is an extremely dangerous individual who needs to be found before more people come to harm.
“We know that talking about crime, especially when related to violent criminals can be extremely difficult which is why Crimestoppers is here to help. If you know where Manson is hiding, but prefer not to speak to the police, please tip-off our charity anonymously.
“Speak to one of our professionally trained UK Contact Centre team or fill out the online form on our website. You will stay 100% anonymous. Always.”
Members of the public are urged not to approach Manson but contact Crimestoppers if you know of his whereabouts. The charity is offering up to £7,500 for information it exclusively receives that leads to Manson's arrest. You can contact Crimestoppers either online or by calling 0800 555 111 at any time.
