A second person has been charged with assisting former soldier Daniel Khalife after he escaped from Wandsworth Prison. Adeel Khan, 30, from Waltham Forest in east London, is accused of helping Khalife after he escaped from HMP Wandsworth by tying himself to the underside of a food delivery truck in September 2023. Khan has also been charged with possession of a phone in prison, the Metropolitan Police said.
Jurors at Woolwich Crown Court found he had breached the Official Secrets and Terrorism Acts after he was accused of handing secret information, including a list of soldiers - some of whom were serving in the SAS - to Iranian spies. Khalife first contacted an Iranian spy soon after he joined the Army aged 16 and claimed he wanted to be a 'double agent' and 'thought he could be James Bond' but had only passed on fake or useless information.
