Do you recognise this woman?

A woman with links to Wimbledon is on a list of 17 "high-risk" criminals being hunted by police.

Polish Anna Jankawska (pictured left), aged 26, is being sought for drug-trafficking offences. She has links to Wimbledon, Mitcham and Cheltenham.

All 17 people on the list are foreign nationals - wanted by other countries in Europe - and are currently in the UK.

It is the third time that the Met Police's Extradition Unit has run Operation Sunfire, with a view to tracing and arresting murderers, violent robbers,
drug traffickers and other criminals, then putting them before the
extradition courts to face justice abroad.

Others being hunted as part of Operation Sunfire include two alleged gunmen who fatally shot their victims, a suspected violent abductor and a man wanted for the rape of a teenager.

Detective Sergeant Peter Rance, leading Operation Sunfire 3 for the Extradition Unit said: "Today I'm asking the public, do you recognise these faces? Maybe you know where these people live, work or socialise?

"They are wanted to face justice for a multitude of crimes in other countries and it is in the UK's interests to help find them. If you have any information about these people, please call Crimestoppers so we can arrest them. If you see them call 999 and do not approach them."
