Update: On Monday October 7, Gwent Police confirmed Jake James has now been found and arrested

Police have re-appealed for information as they continue to search for a Caerphilly man wanted back in prison.

Jake James, 30, received a three-year sentence for controlling coercive behaviour when he appeared at Cardiff Crown Court in October 2022.

He was released from prison on April 8 this year on licence.

However, Gwent Police said James has since breached these conditions, and has now been recalled to prison.

The force does not disclose what the licence conditions were, or what conditions have been broken.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts can call Gwent Police on 101, or through direct message on social media, quoting log number 2400244388.

Alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111.
