Shamed rock star Gary Glitter sent back to jail for breaking bail rules just a month after being released
SHAMED rock star Gary Glitter is being recalled to jail after breaking the rules of his bail just one month after being released.
The pop paedophile, 78, was caught trying to access the dark web.
He was snapped on camera at a bail hostel asking how to avoid detection when web browsing on a smartphone.
Glitter – real name Paul Gadd – was jailed for 16 years in 2015 for sex crimes against a girl under 13.
He was released in February and was being monitored.
Strict bail conditions he was supposed to follow included wearing a tag and telling police if he enters into a relationship with someone who has a child under 18
He must also tell cops seven days in advance of any foreign travel, and officers can veto any trip if they fear a risk of further offences taking place.
Pressure was today growing on justice chiefs to launch an investigation into his recent search history.
And The Sun understands Deputy PM Dominic Raab, also the Justice Secretary, has demanded a full report from officials on the scandal.
A source said: “The mood music is heading in one direction.
“The Deputy PM has now taken a personal interest, as you would expect.
“The pictures and comments in themselves are enough to have raised serious concerns.”
Glitter has an appalling record of seeking child abuse images online.
In 1997 he was found with a cache of 4,000 sickening pictures on his laptop.
He was released on licence after being convicted in 2015 of historical sex abuse of girls under 13 in the 1970s and 1980s.
