The Met has said there has been a second unconfirmed sighting reported of Owami Davies on the day she was last seen alive, July 7, at around 7am.

Police have revealed there has been an unconfirmed sighting of missing student nurse Owami Davies, as three men were arrested on suspicion of kidnapping.

The 24-year-old left her family home in Grays, Essex, on July 4, and was last seen on CCTV walking along Derby Road, West Croydon, on July 7.

Footage released by the police last week showed Owami walking down the road with a man.

Det Ch Insp Nigel Penney, who is leading the investigation, said: “This is a complex ongoing investigation involving a significant number of officers.

“We are working tirelessly to follow every line of enquiry, including extensive CCTV trawls, as we continue to search for Owami.

“We are now a month on from the last confirmed sighting of her. I cannot imagine what that time has been like for her family. We continue to provide them with whatever support we can.

“I am grateful for the help we have received from the public so far, but I must again appeal for anyone who has information – however insignificant they believe it might be – to get in touch.

“We are working hard to find Owami but we really do need the public’s help – our concerns that she may have come to harm are growing with each day that remains missing.”

Last week, Owami’s mum 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.
