In this episode Caroline and Jack have the moment Daniel Khalife changed his plea to Guilty and admitted escaping from Wandsworth Prison strapped under a food delivery van.  He was cross examined in the witness box by the prosecutor Mark Heywood about the spying charges he still denies. He said he was a patriot and did not deserve to be sent to Belmarsh Prison. He admitted he had made mistakes, and he had told lies but he wasn't a terrorist.  Follow us on instagram @thetrialpod Email us [email protected] Whatsapp us +447796657512 (start your message with ‘Trial’) Presenters: Caroline Cheetham and Jack Hardy Editor: Isabelle Bougeard Creative Director: Caroline Cheetham Executive Producer: Lucy Vallance A Daily Mail production.

In this episode Caroline and Jack have Daniel Khalife's evidence about why he escaped from Wandsworth Prison - he said it was so he would be classified as a high-risk prisoner and better protected from some of the most serious offenders.  During his evidence to the jury at Woolwich Crown Court he said he used kitchen trousers which he clipped to the underside of a food delivery lorry to create an escape sling. He was then on the run for three days. He also said he tried on several occasions to tell MI5 and MI6 that he was acting as a double agent by sending worthless information to Iran - but he was then arrested.  Learn more about your ad choices.
