The dad of Baby P has hailed the decision to send the murderer mum back to prison just two years after she was let out.

Tracey Connelly, 42, was caged for her role in the death of 17-month-old Peter who endured appalling abuse at her hands in Tottenham, north London, in 2007. She got out on licence in 2013 but was dragged back to the prison a few years later after flogging adult snaps of herself online.

The monstrous mum was shockingly given the green light for freedom in 2022 but has found herself locked up once more for flouting her release terms. Baby P's father expressed his relief on Wednesday, saying: "I was obviously happy that she had gone back to prison."

"They informed us that she was back inside, but they didn't tell us why. We don't know how long it will be for either, but it must be pretty serious. To be honest, I just don't care about her; when I hear that something has happened I just shrug.

"She can go to hell for what she did so far as I am concerned. She is nothing to do with me now."

Battling long-term health issues in hospital, the 60-year-old shared how he tries to block out his vile ex's actions towards his son. He added: "Obviously it never gets easier. I go up to Peter's grave whenever I can, to remember him.

"It will never go away. That's why I can never forgive her, and I never will.", reports the Mirror.

After her release, Connelly was given intense supervision by probation officers, which came with a whopping 20 licence conditions. She had to declare any new partners or friends, adhere to a curfew, and steer clear of certain parts of the UK and specific individuals.

Connelly was tagged, barred from using unauthorised gadgets, and had her internet and mobile usage placed under constant watch. A spokeswoman for the Prison and Probation Service declared on Tuesday: "Offenders released on licence are subject to strict conditions and we do not hesitate to recall them to prison if they break the rules."
