Sex Offender Mistakenly Released from Wandsworth Prison Identified
Brahim Kaddour-Cherif, a 24-year-old man who was accidentally released from HMP Wandsworth on October 29, remains at large. Although he was serving time for trespass with intent to steal, he has a history of sexual offenses.
Background and Current Status
Kaddour-Cherif recently appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court in September charged with failing to comply with sex offender requirements. The Metropolitan Police, confirming his Algerian descent, are conducting urgent investigations to locate and return him to custody.
Reactions from Officials
Labour MP for Tooting Dr. Rosena Allin-Khan expressed her horror at the news, citing the prisoner's "shocking list of offences."
She told The Mirror: "Local residents will quite rightly be deeply concerned. We urgently need answers from the Government and Ministry of Justice as to how this was allowed to happen."
Related Incident
This incident follows a recent case where convicted sex offender Hadush Kebatu was mistakenly released from HMP Chelmsford in Essex. Kebatu, aged 38, was at large for three days before being arrested in a north London park. The Ethiopian national was photographed being escorted by plainclothes police officers near a bus stop in Finsbury Park on October 26.
Summary
