THE father of schoolboy Damilola Taylor called today for a public inquiry after one of his son’s killers was recalled to prison for a second time.

Richard Taylor is writing to the Prime Minister to ask for the inquiry into “how the system has failed so badly in this case”, the Damilola Taylor Trust said.

It comes as Ricky Preddie, one of the 10-year-old boy’s killers, was recalled to jail for a second time just 16 days after being released.

Preddie, who was jailed for eight years in 2006 for the manslaughter of the 10-year-old, was recalled to prison last night for breaching the terms of his licence after he entered an exclusion zone in Southwark, south London, and might have met former gang members.

He had been free for only 16 days after being released from Pentonville Prison in north London on January 25.
