Police have said the encrypted messaging service was a popular tool among criminals and they are attempting to unravel a web of contacts and users thought to have been active on Merseyside.

In August, Merseyside Police circulated Baker-Owens' details and identified him as being wanted in connection with alleged drugs conspiracy offences linked to EncroChat.

Baker-Owens, from Birkenhead, is still being sought.
