A reward of up to £5,000 is being offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of Matthew Purves, who is on the run for serious drug-related crimes. Purves, with known links to Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, and Cambridgeshire, is implicated in a conspiracy to distribute cocaine across the UK between November 2019 and February 2021. He has also been flagged for recall to prison since February 2021. Lydia Patsalides from Crimestoppers has urged the public to come forward with any information they might have, saying, “Even information that might appear insignificant could be critical.”
