GWENT Police made an appeal on BBC's Crimewatch for help in finding a wanted man from Pontypool.

Matthew Waters, although he also uses the nickname Maples, was jailed for six years after robbing a woman who was on her way to cash in the day's takings from the garage where she worked.

He was released from prison on licence but breached his conditions and is now wanted back in jail.

The 30-year-old is six feet tall and of stocky build. He has links to Pontypool in South Wales.

Anyone with information should contact Gwent Police on 01633 642 379 or call Crimestoppers in confidence on 0800 555 111.
