Barking and Dagenham police have released images of people suspected of carrying out crimes in the borough.
The CCTV footage captures people who police want to question about a variety of crimes from theft to assault.
The images were taken on buses, in shops around the borough and cameras on the street.
Supt Gary Buttercase explained why CCTV images are important.
“For many years Barking and Dagenham Police have worked in close partnership with the council’s CCTV control room,” he said.

“The Post has assisted us by printing CCTV images of people who are wanted for questioning in connection with crimes, but who police have not yet identified.
“Identification of those pictured in the stills can ensure that a criminal is brought to account, or it may mean that police can eliminate someone from their enquiries and move forward with their investigation.”
