The singer had been released in February, and subject to licence conditions
Disgraced former pop star Gary Glitter has been recalled to prison after breaching his licence conditions.
The singer was released in February after serving half of his 16-year jail term for sexually abusing three schoolgirls.
After being released from prison, Glitter was subject to licence conditions including monitoring and a GPS tag.
The 79-year-old was jailed in 2015 for attempted rape, four counts of indecent assault and one of having sex with a girl under the age of 13.
The Probation Service says protecting the public is the “number one priority”, adding: “That’s why tough licence conditions [are set]” and when offenders breach them, they are returned to custody without hesitation.
Glitter was one of the biggest pop stars of the 1970s.
