LONDON, Sept 7 — British authorities on Wednesday issued an all-ports alert to track down a former soldier awaiting trial on terrorism charges, after he escaped from jail by clinging to the bottom of a delivery van.
He was likely to still be in the London area, although they did not rule out he had travelled outside the British capital, the force added.“We have no information which indicates, nor any reason to believe that Khalife poses a threat to the wider public,” said Dominic Murphy, the head of the Met’s Counter Terrorism Command.
Justice Secretary Alex Chalk will also speak to the governor of the Category B prison, the second highest level of security. Previous high-profile prison escapes include one of the so-called Great Train Robbers, Ronnie Biggs, who scaled the wall of Wandsworth prison using a rope ladder and escaped in a removals van.
