Earlier this week a fugitive on the UK’s ‘most wanted’ list was finally apprehended after spending 27 years on the run.
80-year-old Richard Burrows was arrested at Heathrow Airport and charged with a number of crimes relating to the historical abuse of children that allegedly took place between 1969 and 1971.
It means that the National Crime Agency, who are responsible for fighting serious and organised crime, can tick a name off their list of most sought-after criminals and suspects.
But they are still hunting many more - with some from Scotland, or having been suspected of carrying out serious crimes in Scotland.
Here’s who is currently on the list. All these men are dangerous, so do not attempt to approach them and instead immediately call ‘999’.

5. Ersin Mustafa
Between 2006 to 2008, Mustafa is believed to have been involved in insider dealing with seven other individuals. While employed at the London branch of investment bank JP Morgan Cazenove, he allegedly obtained information about future acquisitions and mergers, which were provided to others who then traded using this information. Over a two-year period, the group made approximately £2.5 million in criminal profits. In July 2008 Mustafa was arrested by the City of London Police and then released on bail. It is believed he fled the UK around December 2009. | National Crime Agency
6. Asim Naveed
Naveed allegedly had a leading role in a highly organised crime group. Using encrypted comms platform EncroChat, he is accused of acquiring large quantities of cocaine from upstream suppliers and onward distribution through Cardiff and Wales. It is estimated he and his OCG brought 46 kilos of cocaine into Wales during the period worth up to £7,885,680. | National Crime Agency

8. Christakis Philippou
Between 2004 and 2006, Philippou was involved in conspiracies where he and his co-defendants repeatedly set out to acquire, or sometimes to set up from scratch, travel agency businesses which were used as vehicles for fraud. The travel agencies attracted customers by offering cut-price holidays. The prices were so low that legitimate companies could not compete with them. In each case, the travel agency ceased to trade, leaving customers without a holiday. This scam defrauded an estimated 20,000 people. | National Crime Agency
