The Met Police have issued an image of a man they are seeking in connection with an antisemitic attack in Wembley.

On 13 October 2023, a man reported having been assaulted after being approached by a group of men on Kingsbury Road and asked whether he was Jewish. The man reported that he moved away and attempted to take a photo of the group, which prompted one of them to punch him in the face, according to the Met.

Officers have now released a photo of a man they would like to speak to in relation to the assault.

PC Catherine Brady, who is leading the investigation, said: “This assault left the victim incredibly shaken and we know it has caused concern within the wider community.
