AI Summary
The Metropolitan Police are searching for Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu, an Ethiopian national and convicted sex offender who was mistakenly released from HMP Chelmsford on Friday wearing a prison tracksuit. Kebatu, 41, served a 12-month sentence for sexually assaulting a woman and a 14-year-old girl. He has been spotted making several train journeys across London since his release. Police urge him to contact them directly by calling 999 or reporting to a police station.
