About

Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu is a 38-year-old Ethiopian national who was convicted of sexually assaulting a woman and a 14-year-old girl in the UK. He received a 12-month jail sentence and was subject to a five-year sexual harm prevention order. However, he was mistakenly released from prison on Friday instead of being deported, leading to an urgent manhunt by the Metropolitan Police. Kebatu is believed to be in London after boarding a train there following his release. The incident has sparked significant public concern and criticism of Britain's immigration system, as well as protests over the handling of asylum seekers and convicted offenders within the country.
