Manhunt for child abductor after he is accidentally released from prison

The whereabouts of Ifedayo Adeyeye, 57, are unknown after his accidental release from prison following the kidnapping of his son (Picture: High Court/PA Wire)

A man who was jailed for kidnapping his son was released accidentally due to a paperwork blunder.

Ifedayo Adeyeye, 57, was let out of prison following an error, leading to a manhunt as his whereabouts are unknown.

He was serving a prison sentence at Pentonville in north London for kidnapping his son, Laurys N’Djosse Adeyeye, five, during a visit before taking him to Nigeria.

Adeyeye was failed for a further 12 months on April 21, but he was released from HMP Pentonville the following day.

Prison staff didn’t realise their mistake until two days later, on April 23.

Adeyeye, a dual British-Nigerian national, had taken Laurys from his mother in France in July 2024.

Mr Justice Hayden described the abduction previously ‘in the most serious class of cases.’

Laurys’s mum, Claire N’Djosse, has not seen her son since the kidnapping.

The names and images of Adeyeye and Laurys were released by the High Court following a request from the boy’s mum in a bid to try to locate them.

Mr Justice Hayden warned that Adeyeye was a ‘dangerous threat to his son’s physical and emotional welfare.’

He said the dad had been ‘entirely dishonest’ and added: ‘Adeyeye’s detention in custody is the best, perhaps the only, hope of reunification of this boy with his mother.’

Laurys was taken from his mother on July 27, 2024, during his first overnight visit with his father, and flown to Nigeria via the UK.

Adeyeye, an engineer, was arrested after he returned to the UK and handed a six-month prison sentence after failing to return Laurys to his mother.

The case spanning multiple jurisdictions and rules became more complicated after a Nigerian court later gave parental responsibility for Laurys to two people, thought to be Adeyeye’s relatives, without Ms N’Djosse’s consent.

A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said the force was informed by the Prison Service at around 1pm on April 24 that Adeyeye had been mistakenly released.

The force said that officers were ‘carrying out urgent inquiries in an effort to locate him and return him to custody.’

A Ministry of Justice spokesperson said: ‘We understand the distress that releases in error can cause to victims and their families and are working with the police to recapture this individual.

‘We inherited a prison system in crisis after years of underinvestment which has resulted in unacceptable rises in releases in error.

‘That’s why this Government is taking the bold and decisive action needed to fix it – investing up to £82m to digitise outdated paper-based systems, roll out biometrics and strengthen checks across the courts so we can drive down these mistakes and better protect the public.’

Jamie Carragher names the player who saved Arsenal’s season after reaching Champions League final

Jamie Carragher after Arsenal’s win over Atletico Madrid (Picture: CBS Sports)

Jamie Carragher believes a ‘little tactical shift’ has breathed new life into Arsenal after they took control of the Premier League title race and reached the Champions League final.

Mikel Arteta’s side were the best team in Europe during the first-half of the season but have been stumbling towards the finish line in recent weeks.

Arsenal fell short in both domestic cup competitions and then suffered what at the time felt like a costly defeat to title rivals Manchester City.

But the Gunners have responded brilliantly to that setback, winning back-to-back Premier League games and overcoming Atletico Madrid to reach the Champions League final.

While Arsenal looked back on track, Man City slipped up in the title race on Monday night as they were held to a 3-3 draw by Everton, leaving Pep Guardiola’s team five points behind the league leaders.

Recent results mean Arsenal are on course to lift the Premier League trophy for the first time since 2004 and are one game away from their maiden Champions League trophy.

Carragher, who won the Champions League with Liverpool in 2005, says Arteta’s side were ‘definitely wobbling’ but have improved since ‘fantastic’ Declan Rice adopted a deeper role.

‘I thought Declan Rice was fantastic and the best player in both legs,’ Carragher said on CBS Sports after Arsenal knocked out Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid.

‘Even though Arsenal find themselves where they are in the Champions League and the Premier League because of what they’ve done over nine or ten months, they were definitely wobbling.

‘In the last week they’ve sorted themselves out and I think the decision to move Declan Rice a little bit deeper has had a huge influence.

Declan Rice after Arsenal’s semi-final win (Picture: Getty)

‘I thought he was really good out in Madrid and got the Man of the Match award in the second leg as well. In-between that Arsenal beat Fulham and it was the first time we’ve really seen them look at ease and play free.

‘It had probably been a few months since we’ve seen that, maybe since they beat Tottenham 4-1 in the north London derby.

‘I think that little tactical shift with Declan Rice has had a huge impact and they are now two games away from winning the Premier League and Champions League double.

‘They have the Champions League final, obviously, but if they beat West Ham at the weekend they will win the Premier League, it would be all over.

‘So that’s how close they are but you’ve still got to get across the line and get there – but it does look a different team than we saw even just a couple of weeks ago.’

Bukayo Saka’s first-half goal settled Arsenal’s Champions League semi-final against Atletico after a 1-1 draw in Madrid in the first leg.

The Gunners will face French champions PSG or German champions Bayern Munich in the Champions League final on May 30.

Gladiators’ Giant reveals ‘exciting’ TV future after being axed by BBC

Gladiators’ Giant has revealed that it’s a ‘very, very exciting time’ for his TV career as he moves on from the BBC show that made him famous.

Jamie Biggs, aka Giant, alleges that he was axed from the Saturday night programme because the BBC didn’t approve of his girlfriend’s job as an OnlyFans model.

The 40-year-old had been on Gladiators since it rebooted in January 2024, but Jamie claims that he was let go after making it clear he wanted to go public about his relationship with Taylor Ryan, 28.

Despite no longer being part of the sports entertainment show, he says he’s got plans to stay on screen.

Giant told The Sun that ‘TV is something that I would very much like to continue’.

He went on: ‘Having the flexibility and the ability to speak about more taboo subjects is something that moving forward, perhaps, can now happen.’

The bodybuilder can’t give anything away just yet (Credits: Pa)

Although he didn’t give specifics, he did say: ‘There’s lot of things in the pipeline at the minute.

‘It’s actually a very, very exciting time and I’m definitely looking forward to the future. I can’t divulge any information on particular shows or events, situations just yet.’

He won’t, however, be following in the footsteps of girlfriend Taylor and joining the paid-for content platform.

Joking about his inclusion in the videos, he told The Sun he’d leave that to the professionals: ‘The performance anxiety would be too much.’

Speaking to Metro about Taylor’s job, he said: ‘Taylor is entitled to her private life. We’re doing nothing wrong.’

Defending his girlfriend, he said: ‘OnlyFans is just one of the things that Taylor does, [it is] a very small part of who she is.’

The bodybuilder and TV personality split from his wife, Katie Christian, in November last year.

Katie regularly shares content about being newly single – recently she posted a video where she claimed she was ‘struggling with how easily something real gets replaced by something new and then held up like it carries the same weight.’

Dolly Parton, 80, cancels Vegas residency in ‘bad news’ update after health crisis

Dolly Parton has cancelled her Las Vegas residency amid health issues (Picture: Terry Wyatt/WireImage)

Dolly Parton has announced she will not go ahead with her Las Vegas residency as she still ‘has some healing to do’.

The 9 to 5 songstress, 80, previously had to pull out of an appearance at her Dollywood theme park due to a kidney stone ‘causing [her] problems’.

Then, in September, Dolly postponed the Vegas residency due to continued health issues but she had been due to return to the stage soon.

Dolly shared an update on social media, revealing she is still not ready to perform, especially if she’s planning to dance around in her high heels.

‘First it’s concerning my health and I have some good news and a little bad news,’ she said.

‘The good news is I’m responding really well to meds and treatments and I’m improving every day. Bad news is it’s gonna take me a little while before I’m up to stage performance level because some of the meds and treatments make me a little bit swimmy headed as my grandma used to say.

Up Next

‘Of course I can’t be dizzy, carrying around banjos, guitars and such on five inch heels. And you know that i’m gonna be wearing them!’

In her usual easy going style she shared that ‘anybody would be swimmy headed’ with her big hair, heavy rhinstones and big personality.

Her Vegas run of shows were originally due to begin on December 4 and conclude on December 13, with the gigs rescheduled for this September.

When announcing the Las Vegas stint in June 2025, the Jolene vocalist had thousands of fans trying for tickets to watch her play across six nights in Caesars Palace.

Dolly compared herself to an ‘old classic car’ which needed it’s engine to be ‘rebuilt’, joking her ‘oil pan is leaking’ and her ‘muffler is busted’.

She said she didn’t want to ‘lose her spark’, teasing she is ‘still crazy’ but the doctors ‘didn’t mention nothing about [her] mental health’.

Her health issues appear to be linked to her kidney stone problem, which she has suffered with for a while now.

In a more graphic description, Dolly shared the kidney stone issue was ongoing with them ‘scraping’ more stones out of her than a quarry.

She promises she’ll be back on stage soon (Picture: Tammie/AFF-USA/Shutterstock)

The I Will Always Love You hitmaker revealed that her immune and digestive systems have become ‘out of whack’ so she needs to strengthen them.

‘Happy heart is like good medicine,’ the country legend continued after saying she knew she was joking a little too much about her health.

Dolly said she’s hoping to get her hotel and museum sorted this year, promising that she’s still working on her musicial biopic as well as recording music.

She said she was ‘truly sorry’ to be missing everyone who had Las Vegas tickets, encouraging fans to go to the city anyway and not cancel their trips.

After updating fans on her health, Dolly shared some insight into how she was feeling after the death of her husband, Carl Dean.

He died at age 82 on Monday, March 3, 2025, in Nashville, after six decades together, keeping their love away from the spotlight.

She admitted the year without him had been ‘hard’ for her, but said ‘I will always love him and I will always miss him.’

Dolly thanked fans for helping ‘heal’ from the loss, sharing a story about how Carl reminded her she’s ‘not getting any younger’ when she complained about aches and pains.

‘I said “Well honey, you’ve got to remember that as long as there are plastic surgeons in this world, I’m not getting any older”,’ she laughed.

Signing off, she assured fans that her doctors had told her that ‘everything is treatable’ so she expected to be back soon.

Roy Keane points out ‘only problem’ in Kobbie Mainoo’s game

Kobbie Mainoo still has to convince Manchester United legend Roy Keane (Picture: Getty Images)

Roy Keane still has a doubt over Kobbie Mainoo at Manchester United, although admits he now only has one issue with the midfielder.

The 21-year-old was the hero at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon as he netted the winner in a 3-2 victory over Liverpool.

It was a rollercoaster game, with the Red Devils comfortable at 2-0 ahead at half-time, before falling apart and quickly finding themselves level before the hour-mark.

The game could have gone either way and it fell to Mainoo to win it, firing in the winner on 77 minutes from the edge of the box.

The England international does not score many, with that being his first of the season and his first in the Premier League since May 2024.

Ahead of the game on Sunday, Keane said he is waiting to be fully convinced by Mainoo, telling Sky Sports: ‘I’m still not convinced with him. I think he’s a really good young player, he’s still a kid, he’s only played 70-odd first team games.

‘He’s obviously been involved in the England squad, but he still hasn’t convinced me. I hope he does next year.

‘I can be a harsh critic of midfield players, I was very critical of myself. I still think the kid has to do a lot more.

‘Has he got a chance? Of course he’s got a chance. He’s still learning.’

Following his performance against the Reds, Keane feels Mainoo has improved after his time out of the team under Ruben Amorim, as has been proved by his form under Michael Carrick.

However, the former Manchester United captain remains concerned that he does not have the pace to be a top level midfielder.

Kobbie Mainoo scored his first goal of the season (Picture: Getty Images)

While he can learn to add other strings to his bow, Keane is not sure Mainoo can develop acceleration required in the engine room.

‘The last six months will be quite good for him. For a young player at a big club, he comes on the scene and getting all the headlines, doing well and then getting involved with England,’ said Keane.

‘The last few months, people have been talking about him going out on loan, but I always said that sometimes you have to sit and learn, watch the game and the team.

Michael Carrick has placed his faith in Kobbie Mainoo since taking charge (Picture: Getty Images)

‘In football, there are good and bad experiences and I’ll think he’ll learn from this last few months than when he first got into the team.

‘He’s had to mature, he’s got his new deal, he’s had to learn his trade. He’s a young player, he’s still learning, he’s got years before he even peaks.

‘He’s surrounded by experienced players, hopefully they’re helping him, so it’s been no bad thing.

‘The only problem is, when people talk about if he’s explosive enough, can you improve on that if you’re not quick off the mark?’

Roy Keane has high standards for midfielders (Picture: Sky Sports)

The relationship between Mainoo and Carrick is clearly a good one, with the current England midfielder full of praise for the former one.

‘He’s played a huge part in it, all the confidence he gives all the players,’ Mainoo told Sky Sports of his and Manchester United’s resurgence. ‘You want to follow him and fight for him and die for him on the pitch.’

The win over Liverpool guarantees a return to Champions League football for the Red Devils and improves Carrick’s chances of getting the manager’s job on a permanent basis.

Jacob finally reports Dr Todd in Emmerdale but gets a very unexpected shock

Up Next

Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) is ready to take the dragon head on in Emmerdale, but there is an unexpected sting in the tail.

Jacob’s been on a roller coaster ride with boss and mentor Dr Todd (Caroline Harker). After he got sick and tired of her bullying and gaslighting, he made an informal complaint to HR.

Todd found out about this and tried to get him to drop is complaint via her usual means of manipulation, telling him he’d be depriving the world of the best doctor ever if she did get the sack. He turned around and beautifully laid out how she had likely deprived the world of many brilliant doctors thanks to her bully-boss style, and stuck to his guns.

Ah but then the trump card fell into her lap when she overheard that Charity’s surrogate baby is not, in fact, Jacob’s. What an unbelievable opportunity to land in her lap – she blackmailed Charity that if she got Jacob to drop his complaint, the crooked Doc would keep the paternity a secret. Brutal.

Charity then emotionally pressured Jacob into retracting his complaint, claiming she was looking out for him and protecting his future, Lies. He had vowed never to be manipulated again but hadn’t seen Charity coming.

Carol reveals some news (Picture: ITV)

Jacob has previously tried to tell HR about his boss (Picture: ITV)

So, Jacob dropped his complaint and decided to face things himself. HR were surprised about his decision after the lengthy report he’d given. They even tried to tempt him to pursue the complaint with a tip that he wasn’t the first to make a complaint. But he decided to go through with the retraction.

But a retracted complaint does not stop Dr Todd from upping her bullying game. Now she openly mocks him when they pass each other in the village, and targets Sarah (Katie Hill) by twisting the knife that Jacob is all too keen to get back to work instead of play happy families.

Jacob does not take this well and confronts his evil boss in the Woolpack. But he makes a mistake when she walks away and he follows her into the ladies’ loo. Vanessa (Michelle Hardwick) walks in and catches him there, not a good look.

Vanessa confronts him, having become so completely confused by his behaviour, and he finally confesses everything to Sarah; the bullying, the lies, the mind games and gas lighting.

Doctor Todd knows about Charity and Ross’ baby (Picture: ITV)

Sarah now understands and tells him they’ll face it all together and sees with fresh eyes how emotionally beaten Jacob is. She tells him he needs to find his strength to tackle this.

But she also confronts Vanessa herself, which could only make matters worse.

Beware! Obsessed Doctor Todd’s new romance revealed in Emmerdale

Vanessa Woodfield seems pretty taken in by Doctor Todd (Picture: ITV)

Doctor Caitlin Todd (Caroline Harker) is busy manipulating Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick) and Manpreet Sharma (Rebecca Sarker) amid her attempt to destroy Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) in Emmerdale.

For a reason yet to be revealed, Doctor Todd has spent the past few months slowly chipping away at Jacob’s confidence. It began at Hotten General Hospital, and featured Doctor Todd twisting situations involving the enthusiastic resident doctor.

This ongoing situation has left Jacob’s head in a mess. When he’s not questioning whether he’s got what it takes to be a doctor in a busy NHS hospital, he’s busy believing that he is capable, and it’s due to the fact Doctor Todd is so unpredictable in what she says to him.

Somedays her words will leave Jacob in a dark place, but other times she’ll give him opportunities to better his career, and comments on what a good job he does in the hospital.

Jacob has found it difficult to prove that Doctor Todd is bullying him (Picture: ITV)

If this was kept to the confines of Hotten General, perhaps Jacob’s nightmare would’ve been over sooner, but things are now even more complex due to Doctor Todd living in the village.

She has moved in with Vanessa, meaning the lines between her and Jacob have blurred even more – and Doctor Todd is taking advantage of it.

Caitlin has now started telling Vanessa and Manpreet that Jacob is obsessed with her. Situations unfold between the two, and Doctor Todd can immediately tell Manpreet and Vanessa a different story to make it seem as though Jacob is being completely inappropriate.

Shortly after she moved to the village, Eric Pollard (Chris Chittell) left a bottle of wine on the doorstep but pretended that the gift was from Jacob. To Doctor Todd, this was the perfect chance to reiterate to her two pals that Jacob wasn’t considering the professional boundaries between them.

Caitlin has been busy claiming that Jacob is obsessed with her (Picture: ITV)

In this evening’s episode, Doctor Todd was at the pub with Vanessa and a few other women playing another round of darts. As the alcohol continued to get poured, Mary Goskirk (Louise Jameson) noted to a tipsy Vanessa that it’s very clear she has chemistry with Doctor Todd.

When they got home, a drunk Vanessa was too busy trying not to throw up to focus on the fact Caitlin was speaking about Jacob again, claiming that the conversation they had in the cafe that morning still proves her theory that he’s fixated on her.

Todd then told Vanessa to go to bed, and said that she’d ensure she wouldn’t feel too hungover by the morning. Vanessa was taken in by how kind Doctor Todd is – but is there a genuine connection between them?
