The accidental release happened on October 29, and the man still hasn't been found. It happened just five days after a high-profile accidental release of sex offender Hadush Kebatu from HMP Chelmsford.
The prisoner was serving time for trespass with an intent to steal, Sky News reports. The broadcaster added that it understands he previously committed sexual offences.
