The UK’s prison authorities must get better at identifying the lies of committed extremists to stop them carrying out terrorist attacks when they leave prison, a senior government adviser said on Monday.
Ian Acheson, who produced a report in 2016 on extremism in jails, said the prison service lacked the staff and skills to identify killers who falsely claim to have dropped their violent ideologies.
Mr Acheson said authorities had to get a grip on the threat of extremism behind bars after attacks in 2019 and 2020 by recently released prisoners.
He gave the case of Libyan Khairi Saadallah, 26, who murdered three men in a knife attack in Reading, 65 kilometres west of London, shortly after his release from prison in June 2020.
