Daniel Abed Khalife, a former British soldier, was found guilty of passing sensitive information to the Iranian government, claiming to aim as a UK double agent.
Khalife testified he was inspired by the TV show Homeland to engage with Iranian officials, later justifying it as a patriotic attempt to work undercover.
Despite his claims of patriotism and disdain for the Iranian regime, prosecutors called Khalife's actions a 'cynical game', illustrating the complexity of his motivations.
Khalife became notorious after escaping from Wandsworth Prison in September 2023, using kitchen trousers and carabiners to attach himself underneath a truck.
