Fraudster William “Billy” Smith was wrongly released from HMP Wandsworth following an admin error made in court, it has been reported.

He was released from the prison five days after registered sex offender Brahim Kaddour-Cherif was also mistakenly let out, sparking serious concerns about the state of HMP Wandsworth.
