Police have launched a public appeal to locate a Wolverhampton man who is wanted for breaching the conditions of his prison licence, following a conviction for possessing a firearm.
Man wanted for recall to prison
Anthony Bosenquet, aged 58, is being sought by Merseyside Police for a recall to prison. He had been released on licence after serving part of a five-and-a-half year jail term, which totals 66 months. This sentence was originally imposed for possession of a firearm.

Merseyside Police have issued a description and a photograph of Bosenquet to aid the search. He is described as a white male with a Liverpool accent and a slim build.
His distinguishing features include:
- Short black hair

- Facial hair, likely to be unshaven stubble
The force has confirmed he has links to both the Liverpool and Wolverhampton areas.
How to report information
In a statement, a spokesperson for Merseyside Police said: “We are appealing for information to help find a man who is wanted on a recall to prison after serving a sentence for a firearm offence in Liverpool.”
