(The Post News) – Authorities are appealing to the public for assistance in locating Adam Edwards, who is wanted in connection with a serious sexual offence reported in Bothasig in August 2025. The Provincial Family Violence, Child Protection, and Sexual Offences Unit has issued a warrant for his arrest and is actively pursuing leads to determine his whereabouts.
Moreover, the involvement of this specialised unit highlights the seriousness of the case, as their work focuses on protecting vulnerable individuals, particularly children and survivors of gender-based violence. Therefore, their appeal reflects a broader commitment to ensuring that those accused of such crimes are held accountable.
In addition, to support the investigation, officials have released a photograph of Edwards, hoping it may prompt recognition from anyone who has seen him or knows where he might be. Consequently, his continued absence has raised concern among residents in Bothasig and surrounding areas, with many expressing unease about safety while the suspect remains at large.

Furthermore, community members are encouraged to come forward with any information that could assist in the search. Even small details may prove valuable in helping authorities trace Edwards and move the case forward. Ultimately, the unit remains committed to protecting vulnerable individuals and restoring a sense of security.
