Terror Suspect Captured After Escaping London Prison By Dressing as Chef

  • Daniel Khalife, a former British soldier awaiting trial on terrorism charges, escaped from a London prison by strapping himself to a food delivery truck while dressed as a chef.
  • After a nationwide manhunt, Khalife was apprehended while riding a bicycle in the Chiswick area of West London.
  • Khalife is accused of leaving fake bombs at a military base and gathering information to benefit Iran, charges he denies.
  • The escape led to criticism of prison security and the government, plus the launch of an independent investigation.
  • A £20,000 reward had been offered for information leading to Khalife's capture before he was found by police.
