The judge added, “You are looking for attention and enjoyed the reputation that attracted you after you escaped from prison.” According to the BBC.

The crown prince’s jury rejected his testimony that he was trying to work for the United Kingdom as a double agent.

The espionage case in Khaldev did not receive great attention until he got out of the Wandsworth prison on the dust of the food truck. He was a three -day flee before the police met him on a bike by a channel in London.

The court also listened to a number of reduced factors, including a psychological report from 2023 that was diagnosed with the disturbance of anti -community personality and narcissistic personality disorder, the British Broadcasting Corporation said.

The judge indicated that his security violations were while he could have caused diplomatic damage.

The virtual escape from the Victorian Age prison drew attention to greater failures in the country’s aging system and the population. The investigation is currently underway to how Khalif managed to escape and whether others have helped.

A review found 81 security failures in the prison, BBC I mentioned. This also led to promotions to CCTV cameras that have not succeeded more than a year ago.
