A 24-year-old man arrested in connection to the disappearance of Hull student Libby Squire has been charged with separate offences.

Paweł Rełowicz has been charged with voyeurism, outraging public decency and three counts of burglary, and will appear in court on Monday, Humberside Police said.

The charges relate to other cases and are not linked to the 21-year-old’s disappearance.

Police originally had until 9pm on Saturday evening to charge Rełowicz but were given a 24-hour extension.

Detective Superintendent Matt Hutchinson said: “24-year-old Pawel Relowicz of Raglan Street, Hull has today been charged with voyeurism, outraging public decency and three counts of burglary.

“An offence of outraging public decency was reported to have taken place on 19 January 2019 in Hull and an offence of voyeurism was reported on the 26 December 2018 in Hull.

“The three burglaries were reported between December 2017 and January 2019.

“He has been remanded in custody and is will appear at Hull Magistrates Court tomorrow morning.”

Squire was reported missing from the city in the early hours of Friday 1 February. Officers have said Squire was dropped off in a taxi near her home on Wellesley Avenue at around 11.29pm on Thursday 31 January and was seen 10 minutes later on CCTV near a bench on Beverley Road, where a motorist stopped to offer help.

She is believed to have been in this area until around 12.09am on Friday.

A woman who did not want to be named said she had heard an “urgent, panicked scream” outside her house at around 12.30am on Friday.
