Epping migrant sex attacker is finally deported after bungled prison release

by 29/10/2025

Epping migrant sex attacker Hadush Kebatu has been deported to Ethiopia – just days after an accidental prison release left him roaming the streets of London.

Kebatu, who was convicted of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl and a woman in Epping, was mistakenly set free on Friday.

After a two-day police manhunt, he was arrested in the capital on Sunday morning.

GB News understands the paedophile was removed on a flight last night to Ethiopia and arrived this morning.

Shabana Mahmood, the Home Secretary, said: “Last week’s blunder should never have happened – and I share the public’s anger that it did. I would like to thank the police for rapidly bringing Kebatu into custody and the public for their vigilance.

“I have pulled every lever to deport Mr Kebatu and remove him off British soil. I am pleased to confirm this vile child sex offender has been deported. Our streets are safer because of it.

“If you come to this country and commit crimes, we will remove you.”
