On air: Can paedophiles ever be released safely into society?

The Thai authorities say they’re preparing to expel the former pop star and convicted paedophile, Gary Glitter. He’s been at Bangkok airport since refusing to board a flight to London, last night, following his release from a Vietnamese jail.

It comes as the British Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, says restrictions on convicted child sex offenders are to be tightened— to make it harder for them to travel abroad.
