Detective Chief Superintendent Des Fahy, the borough commander for Haringey, said extra officers had been deployed for reassurance in the area and were talking to local residents. | |
“We understand that the local community might have concerns, but I want to reassure people that incidents of this nature are incredibly rare,” he added. | |
"By all accounts, Iuliana was a bubbly lively girl enjoying a fun life in London when she was tragically taken from her loved ones. Our hearts go out to them." | |
