DETECTIVES investigating a double murder have released new pictures of five witnesses they want to speak to about the shooting.
Cheriff Tall, 21, and Abayomi 'Junior' Ajose, 36, were tragically gunned down during a lockdown party held in a car park off Caythorpe Street, Moss Side, in the early hours of June 21, 2020.
Detectives said previously they believed Cheriff was shot first when a row suddenly erupted with the gunman and moments later father-of three 'Junior, a support worker, was also gunned down after he stepped in to help.
The name of the prime suspect, believed to be from Birmingham, was very quickly known by police and the community of Moss Side, but he has so far managed to evade capture. Around three and a half years on, he remains at large.
Detectives said last year they believed he had fled the country. They believe he and a number of associates had travelled up from Birmingham to attend the party and then fled afterwards.
A number of arrests have been made since in the Midlands but so far nobody has been charged. In a fresh appeal, detectives at Greater Manchester Police's Major Incident Team said they do 'have an outstanding suspect' but that the force 'needs more evidence.
