DETECTIVES investigat­ing sexual assault, burglaries, drug traffickin­g and tax dodging want to speak to these people.

Greater Manchester Police, the National Crime Agency and Crimestopp­ers all want your help in finding them.

Kailem Barlow, 21, is wanted in connection with investigat­ions into six domestic burglaries that took place between April and October 2018. He is also wanted on warrant after failing to appear in court for previous road traffic offences.

Barlow is known to have links to Failsworth and Blackley.

Michael Labinjo, 28, has been wanted since March 2018 but despite extensive attempts to arrest him, officers have been unable to locate him so far.

GMP are seeking him in connection with a series of burglaries and an assault. He is also wanted in connection with an assault on a woman in Wythenshaw­e earlier this month.

Officers believe Labinjo knows they are searching for him and is actively avoiding arrest.

He has no known fixed address but there have been sightings of him in the Wythenshaw­e area. and possession of an offensive weapon.

He has since breached the terms of his licence and is now wanted on recall to prison.

He is known to use aliases including Stuart Leggart, Kevin Taylor, Lee Walley, and Gregory Edward Pinches.

Shazad Ghafoor is wanted in connection with numerous suspected offences including fraud, dangerous driving, possession of criminal property, possession of cannabis with intent to supply and failure to surrender to bail.

Police say Ghafoor, 32, who is a disqualifi­ed driver, took a courtesy car from a dealership in Manchester in August 2013 using a driving licence in another person’s name.

The vehicle was spotted by police and a 20-mile pursuit ended in Halifax, when the car flipped over, GMP said. His wife and two children, who were also in the car, suffered minor injuries. When the car was searched, cash to the value of £80,000-£100,000 was recovered. There were traces of heroin, cocaine and cannabis on the notes.

He was charged with fraud, possession of criminal property, dangerous driving and disqualifi­ed driving. Ghafoor was also charged with possession of cannabis with intent to supply after a vehicle was searched in Withington in November 2013 and cannabis worth £245,000 was found. In May 2014 Ghafoor pleaded guilty to dangerous driv- ing. He was due to appear at court in February 2015 in relation to the other charges but failed to answer his bail and a warrant was issued for his arrest.

He is known to use the names Mohammad Shazad, Abdul Ghafo, Nadeem Ahmed, Shazad Gafoor, and Nadeen Javaid.
