An appeal has been launched to help find an 11-year-old who was separated from his mum outside Poundland in Hayes, west London.

Ibrahim was last seen in Crown Close at around 4.20pm on Monday, 2 September, when he walked away from his mother near to the junction with Station Road.

It is believed that he caught a H98 bus to Hounslow West Underground Station and travelled into London, possibly on the Piccadilly Line. Police believe he may have been in the Pimlico area between 2.15am and 2.50am on the morning of Tuesday, 3 September.

Ibrahim was last seen wearing a red t-shirt, dark blue shorts and dark trainers.

He is thought to have been in the Canada Water, Westminster and Pimlico areas, but is likely to be travelling around London using public transport.

Acting Detective Inspector Mike Llewellyn said: "I am grateful for the support of the public in sharing our appeal. Ibrahim is not in any trouble.

"We just want to ensure that he is safely returned to his family. I urge anyone who may have seen him to contact police."

Anyone who may have seen Ibrahim is asked to call 101, quoting ref 01/794609/24. For an immediate sighting, please dial 999.
