The mother of Baby P, who died after months of abuse, is back behind bars two years after being freed from jail.

Tracey Connelly was recalled to prison for breaching her licence conditions in a move authorised by Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood.

She was jailed at the Old Bailey in 2009 for causing or allowing the death of her 17-month-old son Peter at their home in Tottenham, north London, in 2007.

A Prison and Probation Service spokeswoman said offenders on licence were subjected to “strict conditions” and they did not “hesitate to recall them to prison if they break the rules”.

Connelly left prison in July 2022 after the Parole Board ruled she was suitable for release in May that year.
