Description

Convicted fraudster Junead Ahmed, dubbed the kingpin of a sophisticated escape plot, was sentenced to three years and three months in prison for orchestrating his own release from HMP Chelmsford using a fake document. The scheme, involving multiple accomplices, resulted in Ahmed being at large for 43 hours before police found him hiding in his loft. The forgery, though not expertly crafted, was effective enough to trick prison staff. Ahmeds wife and others involved received varying sentences, with some receiving suspended sentences and community service.
