West Yorkshire Police are hunting a father wanted for breaching a court order banning him from unsupervised contact with his two sons, who have gone missing.

Kibriya Ahmed, 42, is subject to a non-molestation order — a legal injunction barring him from seeing his children alone.

His sons Yousaf, 15, and Mohammed, 12, were reported missing on Saturday 25 October from Liversidge in Kirklees.

Police describe Yousaf as standing 5ft 11ins tall, with a medium build, short black hair and black facial hair.

Mohammed is 4ft 9ins, slim, with short black hair and glasses.

Officers believe Ahmed "may know the whereabouts" of the boys and have conducted extensive efforts to arrest him.

He has connections to Rochdale and Manchester.
