London Hunted: NCA Tracks 5 Most Wanted Fugitives in the Capital

The National Crime Agency (NCA) has hit the alert – five of the UK’s most wanted criminals are believed to be hiding out in London. These fugitives are linked to serious crimes ranging from drug trafficking to fraud. The NCA has issued a stark warning: do not approach these dangerous individuals. Instead, report any sightings immediately.

The Five Most Wanted Fugitives

1. Jack Mayle

From croydon/" title="Croydon" data-wpil-keyword-link="linked">Croydon, Jack Mayle is wanted for supplying drugs including MDMA, diazepam, and methylphenidate. He allegedly ran a drug operation called Flavour Quest across South London and Surrey. Known for working with dark web dealers, Mayle is described as 5ft 11in, muscular, around 30 years old, sporting tattoos: “Croydon” on his left forearm, a diamond beneath his left eye, and “money never sleeps” on his left hand. A vegan gym fanatic who carries weapons – he’s not someone to mess with.

2. Christakis Philippou

Also known as Christakis Chrysostomou, Philippou is tied to a massive travel fraud racket between 2004-06. His sham agencies hoodwinked 20,000 holidaymakers, leaving them stranded without their booked trips. Now believed to be in London, Philippou is 165cm tall with grey receding hair and tanned skin.

3. Ersin Mustafa

Accused of insider trading, Mustafa leaked confidential JP Morgan Cazenove info to help a group rake in £2.5 million. Arrested in 2008, he skipped bail in 2009 and vanished. The NCA thinks he’s still in London. He stands 165cm, stocky build, with dark hair and tanned skin.

4. Daniel Dugic

Linked to a deadly 2011 plot to smuggle 255 kilos of cocaine into the UK via a vessel meeting a container ship in the Channel. While not physically on the ship, Dugic played a key organising role. This Serbian-born fugitive is now believed to be hiding in London.

5. John Barton

Sentenced to 20 years in prison for heroin import conspiracy from 1999-2000, Barton fled justice and remains at large. Known for ties to both London and Fuengirola, Spain, he stands 170cm tall, has a medium build, and sports dyed receding hair.

Public Warning: Stay Alert, Stay Safe

The NCA urges anyone spotting these fugitives not to approach or confront them. Instead, report any information to the police or the NCA immediately. In an emergency, always dial 999.
