5:37 pm
assumed he would be wearing clothes like this as he strapped himself underneath the delivery van that then drove out of wandsworth prison. second big update we have had in the last hour or so. there is a confirmed sighting of him, this was on wednesday, not a sighting today but these pictures here, you will remember if you have seen them before, this is the delivery van when it. by police and this is when they discovered the straps underneath the van leading to the theory of how he got out of the prison but he was not there. the gap came from when he left wandsworth prison to these moments here that we are seeing. now the met police suggest that a member of the public has seen him before this moment but walking away from the van, not far from wandsworth roundabout which is not too far away from the prison. and that sighting is the first that we have heard of him but as i said
5:38 pm
not today, that was on wednesday. the other details from the met police, a £20,000 reward is now being offered for any information leading to the arrest of daniel khalife. 0ur correspondent helen wilkinson spoke to commander dominic murphy, the head of the counter terrorism command at the met police and this is what he said.— and this is what he said. there are two significant _ and this is what he said. there are two significant updates _ and this is what he said. there are two significant updates today, - and this is what he said. there are two significant updates today, i'm| two significant updates today, i'm pleased to say thanks to the support of the media and the public we have had a confirmed sighting of daniel khalife coming out from underneath the lorry near wandsworth roundabout trinity road as it goes into swans way. he was spotted walking towards wandsworth town centre. hind way. he was spotted walking towards wandsworth town centre.— wandsworth town centre. and where has that information _ wandsworth town centre. and where has that information come _ wandsworth town centre. and where has that information come from? - wandsworth town centre. and where l has that information come from? that is a call from — has that information come from? that is a call from a — has that information come from? trisgt is a call from a member of the public thanks to the appeal work we have been doing with the media. typically this member of the public

5:48 pm
police had been focusing a lot of their efforts today. that location there and then of course back over here, you've got wandsworth so this is the kind of geography. police have said this information came in from a call from a member of the public but they have had more than 100 calls from members of the public. at the moment they are focusing their search on london but security has been increased at uk borders as this search continues. great stuff, can we zoom in again on the prison and just take us from the prison along the road we think the fan must have gone up, up to the roundabout there where we think that siting is? roundabout there where we think that sitin: is? ., , ., ., , , siting is? now you are testing my map skills. _ siting is? now you are testing my map skills. one — siting is? now you are testing my map skills, one second! - siting is? now you are testing my map skills, one second! we i siting is? now you are testing my map skills, one second! we can i siting is? now you are testing my i map skills, one second! we can come back to you- — map skills, one second! we can come back to you- i— map skills, one second! we can come back to you. i have _ map skills, one second! we can come back to you. i have zoomed _ map skills, one second! we can come back to you. i have zoomed out i map skills, one second! we can come back to you. i have zoomed out too i back to you. i have zoomed out too far. don't back to you. i have zoomed out too far- don't worry. — back to you. i have zoomed out too far. don't worry, i— back to you. i have zoomed out too far. don't worry, i have _ back to you. i have zoomed out too far. don't worry, i have some i back to you. i have zoomed out too j far. don't worry, i have some other issues and —

5:51 pm
roundabout. this siting i should say was on wednesday morning, some time ago now but police say it's very helpful to them.— helpful to them. brilliant stuff, thank ou helpful to them. brilliant stuff, thank you so — helpful to them. brilliant stuff, thank you so much. _ helpful to them. brilliant stuff, thank you so much. we - helpful to them. brilliant stuff, thank you so much. we know. helpful to them. brilliant stuff, i thank you so much. we know that roundabout is the point at which he is spotted and away from the van but let's go to the van itself. this is the moment the police stopped the van but this was an hour or so after it left the prison and that is why he was not underneath the when the police were doubly intercepted him because this is around 8:30am but the prison van left around 7:30am and it seems now if he got out from underneath the van within a mile or so of the prison, that would be much closer to 730, 8:30am so he would have been gone from underneath the van for around an hour by the time police got there. let's check if that man's timing is correct, helene wilkinson is down at scotland yard
5:52 pm
and she will know. you did the interview, what are the details that stood out for you? t interview, what are the details that stood out for you?— stood out for you? i think crucially detectives now _ stood out for you? i think crucially detectives now have _ stood out for you? i think crucially detectives now have something i detectives now have something concrete potentially to work from. they have released this information that a member of the public has contacted them as we have been reporting said they saw a man fitting the description of daniel khalife, walking away from a food van, that is the same company and the same van that daniel khalife used to strap himself to the underside when he escaped from wandsworth prison. a sighting by a member of the public. police and detectives will be doing very clearly, this sighting was around the wandsworth roundabout and they say shortly after that, a man who is a member of the public thinks was daniel khalife was then seen walking towards wandsworth town centre so what detectives will be doing now clearly is focusing a lot of their
5:53 pm
efforts on that area. they will no doubt do door—to—door inquiries and they will try to gather as much information as they can because if you like, they can almost start at that point and work from there to try and work out where he went afterwards. again, they are urging members of the public to come forward with any kind of information but we heard earlierfrom forward with any kind of information but we heard earlier from the commander dominic murphy who leads the metropolitan police counterterror command, this particular siding is the first one they have got and it is a significant development for them. alongside that, the metropolitan police are issuing a reward, they are offering a reward of £20,000 stock that is for information that leads to the arrest of daniel khalife. so there is the reward this afternoon, £20,000, there is a first siting that detectives have told us about of daniel khalife so a lot of
5:54 pm
focus will be on that area where he was cited by the berber of the public. again detect saying the focus of their investigation is in the capital, in london but it is a uk wide search and it's not being ruled out he may have left the country. ruled out he may have left the count . . ~ ruled out he may have left the count . ., ~ i. ruled out he may have left the count . ., ~ . ., country. thank you so much without sirnificant country. thank you so much without significant update _ country. thank you so much without significant update on _ country. thank you so much without significant update on the _ country. thank you so much without significant update on the search. i significant update on the search. just to remind you, the new images that we have, let's bring you the fresh image we have of the suspect, daniel khalife. this is a new image of the man himself but of course police are still searching for. we also have another image that police have released. the clothing, potentially, he was wearing for some of his escapes. it will look like these pictures which are a chefs uniform, this is what people wear
5:55 pm
inside the kitchen inside wandsworth prison. and that is where he escaped from so we know at some point he was wearing these clothes, helping out, doing his duty is in the kitchen when he made his escape, we believe strapping himself to the underside of the delivery van and we now know within a mile or so, according to a siting from a member of the public, he got out from under the van around wandsworth roundabout which is not too far away from the present and all of this must have been around 7:30am. before, the van was stopped, intercepted by police, the search continues for daniel khalife, first confirmed sighting on wednesday morning. stay with us, plenty more to come, for the moment, this is bbc news.
5:56 pm
