He is currently wanted in connection with the fatal shooting of Duaine Mills, 28.
On Friday officers were called to reports of shots fired on Leicester Street, Wolverhampton.
When they arrived at the chaotic scene they discovered Duaine and a second man in his 30s.
Duaine was tragically pronounced dead at the scene after being wounded by gunfire.
The second victim was raced to hospital with serious injuries, it is unclear if he was also shot.
He remains under the care of medics in a critical condition.
Duaine’s tragic death has left his family “devastated” with police desperately trying to bring his killer to justice.
An investigation into the slaying, that saw a man gunned down and another critically wounded, was immediately launched.
Homicide detectives began searching for the gunman with West Midlands Police now issuing an image of Maneer Khan.
CCTV footage from just 12 hours before the fatal shooting unfolded shows Khan buying a drink from a shop.
Cops said they have made a number of unsuccessful attempts to locate and arrest Maneer Khan in connection with the shooting.
Officers are now frantically attempting to locate the wanted man, who they are actively trying to arrest.
Anyone who sees the Maneer Khan has been urged not to approach him.
Instead, the public has been instructed to contact 999 immediately if they spot him.
An appeal for anyone with information on Khan’s whereabouts has been issued amid the frantic manhunt for the wanted man.
Senior investigating officer Jenny Birch, from the West Midlands Police Homicide team, said: “We’ve been working around the clock since Friday’s shooting to establish what happened and who was responsible.
“We have already made a number of attempts to locate and arrest Khan, and now we are asking for the public’s help so that we can bring him into custody.
“Duaine’s murder has left his family devastated and we are determined to get justice, and the answers they deserve.”
West Midlands Police said in a statement: “If you have information about where he might be, or saw or heard anything at the time of the shooting which could help our investigation, call us on 101 quoting log 358 of 19 September.”
