A 78-YEAR-OLD retired teacher who was recalled to prison because no electronic tag that fit her wrist could be found is “overjoyed” to have returned home, her brother said today.

Gaie Delap, from Bristol, was jailed last August for 20 months for taking part in a Just Stop Oil protest in November 2022.

Ms Delap was recalled to HMP Eastwood Park after a health condition prevented her having the device attached to her ankle.
