Police have renewed their plea for assistance in finding a mother and her seven-year-old son who have been missing from southwest London since June.
Detectives say they are “increasingly concerned” for the safety of Karima Mahmoud, 43, and her son, Adam Glanville, who were last spotted in Richmond on Monday, 3 June.
The Metropolitan Police have been actively searching for the pair since their disappearance, which involves Ms. Mahmoud breaching a family court order.

Despite a social media appeal made in July, efforts to trace them have so far been unsuccessful, prompting authorities to once again seek help from the public.
Detective Sergeant Mary Dawson, heading the investigation, confirmed that all leads have been thoroughly explored, yet the mother and son remain unlocated.
She emphasized that while there is no specific evidence suggesting harm has come to them, concerns for their well-being are growing with the passage of time.
Authorities have also indicated that Karima may have altered her appearance to avoid detection, further complicating the search.
The police remain hopeful that renewed public attention can provide the vital information needed to bring Adam and his mother home safely.
