A video filmed by another prisoner at his bail hostel showed him ‘asking about the dark web’
Gary Glitter will “probably die in prison” after he was thrown behind bars just weeks after being released.
The former pop star, realy name Paul Gadd, was reportedly filmed by another prisoner at his bail hostel using a smartphone and appearing to enquire about the dark web.
Footage obtained by The Sun on Sunday shows Glitter reference search engines that protect user’s privacy.
He says: “Shall I get rid of this duck duck?”
An unknown person replies: “Yeah, I wouldn’t bother using that if I were you.”
Glitter then says: “So what do I do next, then? Let’s try and find this onion. One step at a time.”
It is thought that Glitter, 78, was referring to DuckDuckGo, a search engine that claims to protect users’ privacy.
Meanwhile the dark web, which allows users to access illegal and violent content, is only accessible through a series of encrypted Tor networks, with many having a .onion URL.
The former head of Scotland Yard’s Paedophile Unit has said the disgraced pop star will always represent a danger to children after he was recalled to prison.
Mike Hames said disgraced 1970s pop star Glitter, real name Paul Gadd, would always represent a danger to children and a return to custody was appropriate.
Speaking on Times Radio, Hames said Glitter was “not allowed to conduct certain things on his phone”.
He added: “As far as Gadd is concerned, he is so dangerous and so fixated on his offending behaviour that he’ll never stop – he’s gone too far. He’s arrogant, he’s opinionated.
“He’s someone who’s always going to be a danger to children, quite frankly.”
Asked about Glitter’s latest return to prison, Hames said: “[I have] No doubt he’ll serve the next eight years of his sentence… He’ll probably die in prison.”
