Published: 11/6/2025

A clerical error may have led to the release of missing sex offender Brahim Kaddour-Cherif from Wandsworth Prison. Kaddour-Cherif was mistakenly released following a court appearance related to a breach of sex offender register requirements. This incident raises concerns about the oversight of offenders in the UK, as Kaddour-Cherif was facing multiple charges and should have remained in custody. The release of Kaddour-Cherif and another inmate comes amidst a series of errors involving the release of sex offenders from UK prisons.
