Adeel Khan Found Guilty of Helping Daniel Khalife Escape Wandsworth Prison

Jurors said Khan arranged cash withdrawals and repeated calls that helped Khalife evade capture after his escape from HMP Wandsworth.

  • On Tuesday, a jury at Snaresbrook Crown Court found Adeel Khan, 32, guilty of assisting former soldier Daniel Khalife following his escape from HMP Wandsworth in September 2023.
  • Khan, who worked with Khalife in the prison kitchen, maintained 'regular and persistent' contact with the fugitive via mobile phone after the jailbreak, facilitating his movements.
  • Khan orchestrated financial aid by arranging for friend Imran Chowdhury to withdraw £400, messaging his girlfriend at 8.41pm: 'Put 120£ in this ac... please thank u baby' to pay Chowdhury.
  • Chowdhury, 26, of Chingford was found not guilty of assisting an offender; Judge Murray Shanks suggested the jury's findings indicated Chowdhury 'didn't know what the hell was going on.'
  • Khan, who also pleaded guilty to possessing a prison phone, remains in custody pending sentencing at Snaresbrook Crown Court on September 4.
