A police hunt is under way for a sex offender, described as a risk to women and girls.

40-year-old Daniel Joslin is wanted for failing to comply with his court bail, and was last seen in east London.

Officers fear he may be anywhere in the country, and goes by several aliases.

In a statement the Met Police said: “Officers are appealing for the public’s help to find Daniel Joslin, 40, who is wanted for failing to comply with an Registered Sex Offender notification and breach of court bail.

“Joslin was last seen in east London and also has a previous connection with Kent, but he may have travelled anywhere in the country.

“Joslin is a white male, 6ft 1ins tall and of slim build; he is known to use a number of aliases.

“He has previously targeted young women and girls and is considered to be a risk to both.”

If Joslin is seen do not approach him but call 999 immediately.

Anyone with any other information is asked to call police on 101, quoting 3602/17FEB.
