A robber who was released from prison in November is now wanted back behind bars.

Steven Soal, 37, from the Caerphilly area, was released on licence but has since breached the conditions of his release, according to Gwent Police.

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

In October 2019, Soal was handed a nine-year prison sentence, but he was released on licence two months ago.

Gwent Police has now appealed for information on Soal’s whereabouts.

He is said to have links to Rhondda Cynon Taf.

Anyone with information can contact Gwent Police on 101, or through direct message on Facebook or Twitter, quoting log reference 2300421953.

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