I wonder how he managed to buy food. I know nothing about prison life but I assume they surrender cards and cash when imprisoned?
He defo wouldn’t have used his own cards. I bet they’d be tracking that shit as priority number 1!

You get an allowance in prison but unsure if that's given in cash or some sort of special prison swipe card. I'd expect he saved cash if thats the case, or had help.

No-one in Waitrose suspected him either

I want to know how long it was before they even knew he had gone? The reports imply it was almost immediately but I am sure that is just PR spin. Also did he really strap himself to the underside of the lorry or was that a red herring?
I heard it was an hour before they started looking.

The cops identified a safe house they believed he was at. I suspect he got the clothes, sleeping bag etc from them and they nipped down to Richmond Waitrose for him, maybe he went along as well to get his supplies in case they missed something he wanted.

So the initial report said he was caught in Chiswick but now sky is saying it’s greenford. And I’ve also seen somewhere else that it’s northholt. Where was he??

I’m a bit confused by the wording of the news reports. Overnight doesn’t necessarily mean that it was tonight?

the Whole security discussion around him seems a bit silly when the guy planted some fake bombs. He doesn’t sound very committed
It was Friday night

it’s not regular for inmates to escape from prison.Only 3 in last 5 years I think!

Thanks for making this thread- I am so invested in this news story!
Yes, compared with the previous year, the number of escapes in the year ending March 2021 decreased from 16 to 5.

I've read some people state he has Iranian heritage. Has this been confirmed anywhere as fact? Or is it purely because he's suspected of spying for Iran?
