Police forces across Wales have issued appeals for information on the whereabouts of numerous individuals wanted in connection with a range of alleged crimes. Officers are asking members of the public to come forward with any details that might help locate them.
This list is not exhaustive. South Wales Police shares active appeals on its Facebook page but not all are featured, as officers make every effort to trace suspects before they are published as wanted. North Wales Police does not remove all appeals once they are no longer active, meaning some older ones still appear online. The force could not confirm whether these were still active. To maintain accuracy, only appeals shared since July 24, 2026, have been included for both forces. Gwent Police and Dyfed-Powys Police appeals featured are up to date.
