Former soldier Daniel Khalife has been branded a “dangerous fool” by a judge imprisoning him for more than 14 years for escaping from prison and spying for Iran.
In a jailbreak that drew intense nationwide attention and sparked a major manhunt, Khalife, 23, escaped from category B prison HMP Wandsworth in southwest London by clinging to the underside of a food delivery truck in September 2023. He was caught on a canal towpath by a plainclothes detective three days later.
