A migrant sex offender who was mistakenly released from prison on Friday was "last seen in London", UK police have said, with officers scouring CCTV in an effort to locate him.
Hadush Kebatu was set free in error weeks after being jailed for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl and a woman in Epping, Essex, while staying in an asylum hotel.
The Ethiopian, who travelled to the UK on a small boat, was due to be moved to an immigration detention centre ahead of his planned deportation when he was released.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer described the release as "totally unacceptable" and said Kebatu "must be caught and deported for his crimes".
