How did the DCI recognize Hashim Dagane?

Investigation revealed that Hashim Dagane, aged 24, was driving a Nissan Note (Registration Number KDQ 718Y) which was caught on CCTV cameras picking up the victims from their Eastleigh home on October 21, 2024, hours before their bodies found.

The car was later found abandoned in the Farmers' Market near the bus station ENA Coach.

This led detectives to ask for the public's help regarding the suspect's whereabouts.
