• Deputy PM David Lammy faced fierce questioning in Parliament after migrant sex offender, Hadush Kebatu, was wrongly released from HMP Chelmsford — with a second mistaken prison release later revealed
• Lammy apologised for the “anxiety caused” but refused to confirm if others had been mistakenly freed, accusing the Tories of failing to manage the justice system before Labour took office
• A review is underway into the Kebatu blunder, which caused public outrage and distress to the victim’s family – findings are expected in eight weeks.
