Police investigating the disappearance of Sarah Everard have put a cordon around a block of flats in south London near where she was last seen almost a week ago. Her last known movements were recorded on a doorbell camera on Poynders Road in Clapham at about 9.30pm last Wednesday. The police cordon is around the Poynders Court housing estate on the north side of the road. But the Metropolitan police have refused to confirm whether this is related to the search. Other officers were lifting covers and searching drains along Poynders Road. The Met has issued new images of Everard and said the search for her is continuing “at pace”. On Tuesday two officers with sniffer dogs were seen searching outside the nearby Oaklands Estate and gardens in surrounding streets. Friends and relatives have also issued urgent appeals on social media to help find the 33-year-old marketing executive, who has not been seen since leaving a friend’s house in Clapham at about 9pm on Wednesday last week. One of the two new images shows Everard in the same coat she was wearing on the night she disappeared. DCI Katherine Goodwin, who is leading the Met investigation, said there was no information to suggest Everard had “come to any harm”. She said: “We’ve released two new images of Sarah as we continue to search for her. “I want to remain clear that at this time we have no information to suggest that Sarah has come to any harm and we retain an open mind as to the circumstances.” Everard left her friend’s flat in Leathwaite Road, Clapham, at about 9pm on to the A205 south circular road, and is thought to have walked through Clapham Common towards her house in Brixton on a journey that should have taken about 50 minutes. Her family have said it is “totally out of character” for her to disappear. Women living in the area near where she vanished told reporters they had been warned by police to be extra vigilant. Anyone who has seen Everard or who has information that may assist the investigation should call the incident room on 020 8785 8244.
