UK migrant sex offender freed from jail by mistake instead of being deported

AI Summary
Britain’s Justice Minister David Lammy expressed outrage after Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu, an Ethiopian asylum seeker and convicted sex offender, was mistakenly released from jail instead of being deported. Kebatu, 38, had been jailed last month for sexually assaulting a teenage girl and a woman. The case sparked protests earlier this year in towns where asylum seekers were housed. Lammy stated that Kebatu "must be deported" and is working with police to locate him while ordering an investigation into the mistake. Kebatu was previously accommodated at the Bell Hotel in Epping, northeast of London, which also faced protests following his arrest.
