Hull: Crimestoppers charity doubles reward to £10k for Moise Djuku, wanted over murder of Corey Dobbe

Crimestoppers appeal sees the initial amount increased to £10,000 for anonymous information on his whereabouts that leads to the arrest of Moise Djuku. 

The independent charity Crimestoppers has re-launched its urgent appeal for anonymous information to find Hull man Moise Djuku, wanted for questioning over the murder of Corey Dobbe.

Corey, who was 23-years-old, sustained fatal stab wounds on Harleston Close in Hull on Sunday, 13 June 2021 (six months ago this week).

Mr Djuku is believed to have links to Leeds, Sheffield and Manchester and has so far evaded arrest.

***To support police with their investigation, Crimestoppers is now offering a reward of up to £10,000 for information the charity exclusively receives – either online at Crimestoppers-uk.org or by calling freephone 0800 555 111 – that leads to the arrest of Moise Djuku***

Gemma Gibbs, Yorkshire & Humberside Regional Manager at the charity Crimestoppers, said: “We are now doubling the amount offered for anonymous information leading to Djuku’s arrests as we continue to support the investigation.

“Corey was much-loved by his family and they are desperate for answers and to see justice. This appalling murder has shocked not only those who knew Corey, but also the wider community. We believe somebody knows where Djuku is and it is crucial that he is found. We are reminding you that to assist somebody wanted for questioning over murder can lead to prosecution.

“Our charity is here for anyone who feels unable to speak directly to law enforcement. We are completely independent and offer an alternative option when reporting crime. Since we began in the late 1980s, our charity has always kept our cast-iron guarantee of anonymity to the millions who have trusted us with their crime information.

“Whatever information you have, please do the right thing. It might be invaluable to the investigation and to helping find Djuku. You can call our UK Contact Centre, which is open 24/7 on freephone 0800 555 111 or you can use our simple and secure anonymous online form at  www.crimestoppers-uk.org. You will stay completely anonymous.”

***Information passed directly to police will not qualify for our reward. Only information passed to Crimestoppers using our untraceable anonymous online form at www.crimestoppers-uk.org or via our 0800 555 111 freephone number will qualify***

Please note: Computer IP addresses are never traced and no-one will ever know you contacted us. For telephone calls, we have no caller line display, no 1471 facility and have never traced a call.

The Senior Investigating Office (SIO) Detective Chief Inspector Alan Curtis said “It has been six months since Corey died and our investigations continue to focus on locating Moise Djuku who we believe has crucial information about Corey’s murder.

“Myself and the officers involved in this murder investigation are hoping that the enhanced reward offer from Crimestoppers of £10,000 might bring someone forward that will lead us to locating Moise Djuku.

“Our investigations continue to focus on locating Moise Djuku who we believe has crucial information about Corey’s murder.

“Every single piece of information that has been given to us by the public has been looked into but I would ask that if anyone believes they have any information, no matter how small, to call us or Crimestoppers.

“It is frustrating that we have not managed to track Moise Djuku down, despite extensive searches, a nationwide wanted appeal and a BBC Crimewatch appeal.

“Someone out there knows where he is and we would welcome any information that would help us locate him.”

Anyone with information is asked to call Crimestoppers anonymously as the above appeal states on 0800 555 111 or go online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org.

You can also call 101 with any information (NB information given this way will not qualify for the Crimestoppers reward)
