A Ghanaian prisoner who escaped from custody before being caught is back on the run after a fresh blunder.
Convicted robber Daniel Boakye, 21, reportedly went missing while on a trip to the hospital.
According to Mail Online, he first went missing from nearby HMP Feltham on Tuesday last week but was found at an address in south-east London the following day.
But it has now emerged Boakye is again on the run after giving officers the slip on Sunday, Febuary 15.
It is understood he is awaiting deportation to Ghana.
A Met spokeswoman said: ‘We are searching for a 21-year-old man who absconded from Lewisham hospital at around 15:05hrs on Sunday, 15 February.
‘Daniel Boakye was in police custody at the hospital receiving medical treatment when he fled.
‘Officers gave chase but could not detain Boakye before he left the building.
‘He is 21-years-old, black, of medium height and slim build. He was wearing grey tracksuit bottoms and a dark Nike jacket when he absconded.
‘Anyone who has any information about Boakye’s whereabouts is asked to contact police on 999 quoting CAD4005/15FEB. You can also call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 to remain anonymous.
‘We are currently reviewing this incident to fully understand the events which unfolded.’
The Met said its Directorate of Professional Standards is aware of the incident.
Boakye, formerly of Alma Road, Enfield, was jailed for six-years-and-five months in July 2023 for conspiracy to commit robbery and an additional robbery offence.
He is also alleged to be a drill rapper.
Scotland Yard previously confirmed Boakye escaped from a west London hospital on February 10 while under the care of prison staff.
Between June 2021 and January 2022, Boakye and three other teenagers participated in a spree of robberies and attempted robberies across London, according to Essex Live.
Armed with knives, they forced victims to hand over their mobile phones and provide passcodes to unlock them.
The group then transferred victims’ cryptocurrency into ‘hot wallets’, stealing more than £115,000 in total. They also used stored bank details to buy top-up cards, pay for taxi fares and complete other fraudulent transactions.
