Former soldier confesses to prison escape

The 23-year-old escaped from HMP Wandsworth in south-west London in September 2023 by clinging to the underside of a food delivery truck using a sling made from kitchen trousers.

He continues to deny all the other charges against him.

Khalife escaped in the hope he would be kept in a high-security unit (HSU) at a different prison, away from "sex offenders" and "terrorists" after his recapture, he previously told his trial at Woolwich Crown Court.
