Rewards of £10,000 for men wanted in connection with murder of Ben Daly in Leamington

Crimestoppers has issued a new appeal for information in connection to the murder of Ben Daly in Leamington last year.

The charity is offering rewards of up to £10,000 for information that leads to the arrest of the three men wanted in connection with the murder.

Kevin Vucini (aged 25), Brigen Carrica ‘Qarrica’ (aged 21) and Rrezon Cengu (aged 22), all originally from Albania, are urgently wanted by investigators to answer questions following Ben’s death in Leamington in the early hours of Thursday August 10, 2023.

A murder investigation was launched after the 30-year-old was found with a gunshot wound on Ranelagh Terrace. It is believed he was shot in Frances Havergal Close a little earlier.

Ben was taken to hospital where he died.

All three men have links to Essex and possibly London, and Cengu has ties with Luton.

Members of the public are being advised not to approach them but to contact the police or Crimestoppers if they wish to stay anonymous.

Crimestoppers – which is independent of the police – is supporting the investigation by offering three rewards of up to £10,000 for information its exclusively receives that leads to the arrest of Kevin Vucini, Brigen Carrica and Rrezon Cengu.

The rewards are available for three months and are due to expire on June 4, 2024.
