Killer of headteacher Philip Lawrence 'is freed'

The killer of headteacher Philip Lawrence has been freed from prison, it has been reported.

"Learco Chindamo, jailed for life for stabbing to death the father of four in 1995, has been given a new identity.

It is thought that the 27-year-old has been moved to a secret address away from London, where he grew up and where his mother, stepfather and brothers lived during his 12 years in prison.

According to reports, Chindamo was released from Ford Open Prison about three weeks ago. He has been given a living allowance and provided with 24-hour police protection via a panic button.

Details of his whereabouts are being closely guarded by officials for his own safety".
