Moment migrant sex offender arrested in London park

A migrant sex offender who was released in error from prison has been arrested in north London after a manhunt.

The moment Hadush Kebatu was taken back into custody after being found in Finsbury Park was filmed by a passerby.

Kebatu, who was sentenced last month for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl and a woman in Epping while living in an asylum hotel, was supposed to be deported.

PM Sir Keir Starmer said he would now be deported, adding "we must make sure this doesn't happen again."
