A man who was wanted in connection with a theft has been interviewed by police and released without charge.
Craig Wesley Smith voluntarily handed himself into officers in Beeston after he was featured in the Post.
Nottinghamshire Police appealed for information about Mr Smith's whereabouts after a theft at the Premier Inn Hotel, in Cinderhill, on November 26.
After Mr Smith spoke to the Post yesterday, the force confirmed that, following a voluntary interview on December 23, he was no longer being sought in connection with the crime.
Mr Smith said: "My part in this was non-existent and I have been told that there is no case against me and no case going forward against me."
Both Nottinghamshire Police and Mr Smith have said that they had tried to make contact with each other several times. A force spokesman said: "We released a list of men wanted in connection with a number of crimes for publication in the Nottingham Post. This tactic is used sparingly, based on specific criteria, but ultimately used in a bid to solve crime and protect the public.
"If an individual has a complaint about this method of crime fighting, or its use in relation to a particular case, we would invite them to submit a formal grievance and the matter will be investigated fully."
