  • Police and Crimestoppers renew public appeals to trace former religious instructor Noor Alam as inquiries extend into London.

A widespread police search remains active as law enforcement authorities and independent charity Crimestoppers renew public appeals to locate Desi religious instructor Noor Alam, who is wanted by Northamptonshire Police in connection with serious child sexual assault allegations.

According to official public disclosures released by investigators, the suspect previously served as an Imam and taught religious studies to young children at a place of worship situated along Argyle Street in Northampton. Law enforcement agencies state that the alleged offences occurred between October 2018 and October 2019, involving young female victims, including an eight-year-old child.

Northamptonshire Police have formally categorized the suspect as presenting a continued risk to children, urging members of the public who may possess knowledge regarding his current whereabouts to step forward immediately. Intelligence and operational details published via Crimestoppers confirm police intelligence suggesting that while the alleged offences occurred in Northampton, the suspect maintains links to the capital and may frequently visit or reside within the Tower Hamlets area of East London.

The individual sought by authorities is described in police records as a Desi male of Asian ethnic appearance aged between 35 and 40, featuring black hair and a full beard. Law enforcement authorities have released official custody mugshots to assist the public in identification.

Speaking directly regarding the urgency of active public appeals, law enforcement officials told journalists that public cooperation remains vital in resolving outstanding warrants, emphasizing that information provided by the public can be submitted in total confidence. Authorities stress that under the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act 1992, strict legal protections guarantee lifetime anonymity to all alleged victims involved in the case.

As verified by Daily Dazzling Dawn, the national public appeal remains active under Crimestoppers reference CS2302-18929. Anyone with verified information regarding the location of Noor Alam is urged to contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or reach out directly to Northamptonshire Police.
