POLICE are hunting a 21-year-old wanted for raping a teenage girl and sexually assaulting a second.
Officers want to speak to Obaidullah Shenwari, who is sought on suspicion of the rape of 15-year old girl and another serious sexual assault on a 14-year old girl.
The incidents took place at an address in Hove in June 2013 but police only released a picture of Shenwari today.
He is described as 5'7", of medium build and English speaking, with a distinctive tattoo of Arabic writing in a scroll on the left side of his neck.
Detective sergeant Richard Harris, of the Brighton Specialist Investigation Unit, said: "We believe Shenwari, who may up till recently have been elsewhere in the UK, is currently in or around the city.
"If you know where he is, or have any other information that could help us trace him, please get in touch."
Anyone with information should call 101 or email 101@sussex.pnn.police.uk quoting serial 696 of January 28 or by calling Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
