Murderer Vincent Saywell goes missing from Blantyre House prison in Goudhurst
Vincent Saywell was
serving a sentence for murder
A murderer is on the run after going missing from a Kent
prison.
Vincent Saywell was on temporary release from Blantyre
House open prison, in Goudhurst, when he went missing.
The 54-year-old had been let out to work in Maidstone on
Wednesday - but failed to return to the jail.
Now Kent Police are appealing for help in tracking down
Saywell, who was last known to have been in the town centre at
about 6pm.
The Ministry of Justice refused to reveal details of Saywell's
crime.
He is described as white, of medium build, 6ft with
blue eyes and grey short cropped hair.
Saywell is said to have a southern accent and was last
seen wearing black-rimmed glasses.
In June, two inmates went missing from Blantyre House in just a
fortnight.
Raymond Atkins, 39, had been allowed home for family
reasons, but did not stay at an agreed bail hostel on
Saturday, June 30.
Just two weeks earlier, a murderer who stabbed a teacher to
death was on the run for three days after escaping from
Blantyre House.
Jamie Frater, 38, failed to return following work at a
charity shop in Headcorn.
He had been convicted in 1993 for murdering 45-year-old Geoffrey
du Rose and jailed for life.
Anyone who has seen Saywell or has information about where
he is should phone Kent Police on 101 or 999.
