I thought the police had the CCTV from a week ago?
They obtained the CCTV last Sunday but kept it under wraps as they frantically pieced together the car’s movements before and after Libby disappeared.
The Sun was aware of the crucial development before the arrest but agreed not to publish details.
Shop owner and dad-of-two Mohammed Burhan, 66, told how his cameras picked up a car driving along Newlands Avenue the night Libby vanished.
He told The Sun: “The police have been into all of the shops along here asking for CCTV footage over a particular timeframe.
“They came into my shop and have taken the video from three of my cameras.
“I hope my CCTV can in some way help the police find Libby and discover what has happened.”
Libby was seen on the bench close to her home on Wellesley Avenue at 11.45pm last Thursday.
The Haworth Street footage was captured by cameras overlooking steel gates to an electrical firm.
Staff checked it after Libby was reported missing and alerted cops.
But workers there are fuming detectives took so long to reveal it.
One said: “We couldn’t understand why it wasn’t published straight away by the police.
“If it was my daughter I would have it everywhere.
“Surely they have had enough time to examine it, obtain the licence plate and do checks to find out where it went.
"Time is of the essence. They always talk about the golden hour in investigations. They’ve had nearly a week.”
