He also had a distinctive tattoo on his right hand.

“The victim in this case has been supported fully by a sexual offences investigative techniques (SOIT) officer since 2019 and this support will continue throughout the investigation.

“He is a dangerous individual and must be located to prevent him from offending again.
“No matter when a rape or sexual assault takes place, recent or non-recent, officers are always here, ready to listen and support you.
