THE GUARDIAN: Ex-tennis champion convicted of hiding assets after bankruptcy transferred to HMP Huntercombe
Boris Becker has reportedly been transferred to a prison used to detain foreign criminals, indicating he will be deported from the UK at the end of his sentence.
According to the Times, Becker’s lawyer told journalists in Berlin that he had been transferred to HMP Huntercombe in Oxfordshire.
The former world No 1 tennis player had been detained at Wandsworth prison, a category B prison, after he was jailed for two and a half years for concealing £2.5m of assets to avoid paying money he owed after his bankruptcy. He will serve half of the sentence.
The German, 54, has lived in the UK since 2012 but is understood not to have British citizenship. » | Jamie Grierson | Wednesday, May 25, 2022
