The violent prisoner was caught on CCTV scaling a 20-foot jail wall – at Vale de Judeus Prison in Alcoentre near Lisbon – last September.

Roscaleer was part of a mass prison escape along with four other inmates.

The British thug was caught with one of the other four escapees – convicted Argentinian bank robber and suspected child kidnapper and killer Rodolfo Lohrmann.

Roscaleer had been jailed in June 2020 and was serving nine years behind bars for kidnap and robbery.
