An Ethiopian asylum seeker who sexually assaulted a teenage girl and another woman in Britain, sparking strong protests throughout the summer outside the hotel where he was staying, has been accidentally released from prison, the government said on Friday.
Hadush Gerberslasie Kebatu, 38, was sentenced to 12 months in prison in September for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl and a woman.
His arrest in July led to protests outside the Bell Hotel in Epping, 20 miles north of London, which became a talking point for other demonstrations amid rising tensions over immigration.
Britain's Justice Secretary, David Lammy, said he was "appalled" by the error at Chelmsford prison.
Kebatu was supposed to be sent to an immigration detention center for deportation, but was mistakenly released.
"We are urgently working with the police to find him and I have ordered an urgent investigation," Lammy said on the X show.
"Kebatu should be deported for his crimes, not on our streets," Lammy said.
