Police have released images of an electric motorbike as part of a murder investigation, as they try to track down its owner.

Fariss Kapaga-Fakeer, 18, was found with suspected stab wounds in Bradwell Common, Milton Keynes, on 5 July, and later died in hospital.

Thames Valley Police said a dark green and gold Sur-Ron Light Bee X, similar to the one pictured, which also had an RAF-style marking, was seen in the Bleak Hall area at about 16:40 BST, heading towards Coffee Hall.

"If you recognise the bike, or have any information relating to it, please contact us," said Det Insp Amy Fox, of the major crime unit.

Two men, Ja'siah Highton, 26, and Salim Moludi, 19, have been charged with murder and are due to appear at Aylesbury Crown Court on 8 September.

Kapaga-Fakeer has previously been described by police as "a precious son, beloved brother to his two sisters and a friend who is loved by many".
