Bellfield is from the Openshaw area of Manchester, and is also believed to have links to Lancashire but could be anywhere in the UK.
GMP said: “Do not approach Bellfield and if you see him call 999. We are actively seeking his arrest and ask that anyone with information about his whereabouts contacts us immediately.
“Anyone who knows Bellfield, and may be withholding information, is reminded that assisting a suspect can lead to a prison sentence of up to 10 years.”
