London: For information that helps law enforcement locate a fugitive businessman who ordered a "bungled hit" that killed an innocent 17-year-old, police in Wales are offering a £10,000 ($12,500) reward.

Aamir Siddiqi, an A-Level student, was fatally stabbed on April 11, 2010, when he went to welcome the arrival of a person he believed to be his Qur'an teacher at his home in Roath, Cardiff. Instead, he was mistakenly attacked by hit men Jason Richards, 39, and Ben Hope, 40.

The two, who are currently serving 40-year prison terms, were allegedly employed by Mohammed Ali Ege, 42, who had placed a hit order on a rival company. Ege fled Wales but was captured and detained in 2013 in India.

But in 2017, he was able to flee while travelling to a court hearing. He climbed out of a window while telling police he needed to use the loo at a train station. He's still on the loose.

On Tuesday, the thirteenth anniversary of Siddiqi's murder, South Wales Police renewed their call for assistance in locating Ege and announced the reward.

Police stated, "We remain as committed as ever to tracing and arresting Ege, even though two men have been found guilty of his murder and are still serving life sentences in prison.

Iqbal Ahmad and Parveen, the parents of Siddiqi, previously stated that he was their loving, funny, intelligent, and kind child who was about to start the next stage of his life at college.

"His friends have grown into wonderful adults; some of them are married, some have traveled, and they all have jobs. These things were taken away from our son, and we constantly grieve his passing.

The judge referred to Hope and Richards at the time of their conviction as "staggeringly incompetent."
