Detectives appeal to trace three men after graffiti sprayed on London MP’s office

Police investigating a hate crime after graffiti was sprayed on an MP’s office last month are trying to trace three more men.

Graffiti about the Israel-Hamas conflict was painted on the office of Feryal Clark, MP for Enfield North and shadow minister for crime reduction.

One man, who is bearded, was wearing a black hoodie with the hood up and a green overcoat, and appears to be smoking a cigarette.

The second is bearded and appears to be wearing a black hoodie, and the third was wearing a black North Face hoodie with the hood down and carrying a rucksack.

Detectives have previously said a fourth man, with his hood up and a blue face mask on, is wanted in connection with the incident on Hertford Road in Enfield, north London, just after 11pm on November 21.

PC Louis Blackburne-Maze of the Metropolitan Police, who is leading the investigation, said: “Everyone has the right to protest and to have their voice heard, but when that crosses the line into criminality, as it clearly did in this incident, we will take action.

“Elected representatives have an important role to play and they expect to be held to account, but that should not involve feeling unsafe.

“Neither they nor their staff should have to face targeted attacks and intimidation.

“Officers investigating this incident have examined CCTV footage from the local area and we have identified three suspects that we would like to speak to.

“I would urge anyone reading this appeal who recognises them to get in touch.”
