Roar’s Deputy Editor-in-Chief Aman Patel reporting the ongoing case of missing King’s nursing student, Owami Davies.
Owami Davies is a 24 year old nursing student at King’s College London. Miss Davies has been reported missing by Essex Police since July 11th. She had left the family home in Chafford Hundred, Grays, on the July 4th. The subsequent police investigation has found some evidence of how she may have gone missing. CCTV video footage from the early hours of the 7th of July shows Miss Davies walking in the company of a man on Derby Road. She was also sighted that night in a shop in West Croydon.

“Our immediate priority is cooperating with the Metropolitan Police in their investigation.”
Miss Davies’ mother urged people to come forward with information, saying: “There are many friends and family who love and care for Owami and all of them want to see her safe return.
“Every day we hope to hear the news that Owami is coming back to us; your help might make it so.”

So far, five arrests have been made in connection to Miss Davies’ disappearance, with three being for kidnapping and two for murder. Four of the men have been released on bail until September, including the two murder suspects aged 27 and 23.
