Detective Superintendent Shaun Edwards from our Homicide Unit, said: "Our thoughts remain with Mohammed's family who deserve justice and closure after enduring this pain 18 years on.

"In these circumstances, no case is ever closed and will always look at new information that comes to light, no matter how small it is how much time has passed.

The investigation into the murder remains open, with detectives encouraging anyone with information, no matter how small to get in touch.

"Someone out there knows something. It might be small to you, but it could make a difference to our investigation and Mohammed’s family.

"I would encourage anyone who knows what happened that day to examine their conscience and do the right thing - call us."
