JAILBREAKS such as that made by terror suspect Daniel Khalife are only possible because the prison estate is so rundown, overcrowded and short-staffed, experts claimed last night.

And it has been revealed that 80 wardens at Wandsworth Prison failed to show up for work on the day Khalife escaped, representing 40 per cent of staff.
This can be added to a list of “systemic failings” which may have enabled Khalife’s break for freedom, the union says.
