US national Peter Sedom, 32,who was serving multiple sentences, including a life-sentence for intentional homicide, excaped from Korydallos prison.
The murder conviction against Sedom relates to the killing of 20-year-old university student Stefania Sardi in the 1990s - a crime of which he had been originally acquitted for lack of evidence. In April 2001, however, Sedom gave himself up voluntarily and freely confessed to Sardi's murder in order to avoid extradition to the United States, where he is also wanted on a murder charge and faces a death sentence imposed by a US court.
Sedom had been transferred to Korydallos from a prison in Corfu on April 18 this year in order to receive psychiatric treatment.
