Wanted Hit and Run Fugitive Couple

	Wanted Hit and Run Fugitive Couple Police are appealing for help from expats and holidaymakers in tracking down a British couple who have been on the run in Cyprus for six years. Wayne Smith, 38, jumped bail after admitting causing death by dangerous driving of a young man he hit during a car race with a friend. His girlfriend Julie Anne Skelding, 36, admitted giving him a false alibi. They both fled the UK before they were due in court for sentencing over the death of 22-year-old waiter Mohammed Idrees. His brother Yusuf Mohammed said: "I feel Wayne Smith should never have been given the opportunity to get away after his trial and six years later he has still not been sentenced. Mohammed Idrees was killed in the hit and run "I would say to him that he was man enough to take a life and he should own up to his actions. "We have lost someone we loved dearly and we feel just anger towards Wayne Smith. We hope someone will spot him and help get him arrested."
