The killer of schoolboy Jimmy Misson has been recalled to prison after "shamelessly bragging" about his crimes, the Probation Service said.

Jake Fahri, 19 at the time, sentenced to life imprisonment In 2008, he threw a large glass plate at a bakery in Lee, southeast London, which shattered and severed an artery in the 16-year-old's neck.

The 35-year-old was released in June 2023 after serving 14 years but was recalled on Thursday morning.

"The Sun" said Fakhri was the masked drill artist Ten and recorded music involving murders.

Two of TEN's songs were played on BBC Radio 1Xtra's Introducing programme, although the songs clearly involved murder.

A spokesman for the Probation Service said: "Our thoughts are with Jimmy Mixon's family who should not have to see his killer brazenly bragging about his violent crimes."

Margaret Mizen on Thursday described rap lyrics as 'absolutely horrific'

A spokesman for the Probation Service added: "All offenders released on license are subject to strict conditions."

"As this case shows, if they violate the rules, we will recall them to prison."

Ten is a diamond rap artist whose music often features violent themes and who uses a balaclava to hide his identity in his videos.

In one song, he appears to reference Jimmy's death, with the lyrics: "Stick it to a man and watch him melt like Ben and Jerry's.

"Sharpen my blades, I must preserve what is necessary. Stay alert and prepared, any corner could be deadly."

In another song, "Ten Raps": "Seeing a man's soul fly out of his eyes, his breath gone... I want more, it makes things feel less wrong. See to where blood was spilled on the same floor where he was left."

Jimmy's mother Margaret Mizen, who was appointed an MBE for her charity work following her son's murder, told the BBC on Thursday she was "a bit numb" and said she wondered why the lyrics were allowed.

Jimmy's father Barry revealed that the parole statement said Fakhri had "completed all plans" but this "did not appear to have had any blinding effect".

"I think it does raise quite a few questions about the whole (prison) system - what's the point of this, you know?" he said.

"I think there's definitely some issues with the parole board."

When asked about the incident by LBC, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy offered her "heartfelt condolences" to Jimmy's family.

"I think this is a horrific case and obviously I think the BBC in particular would like to reflect on the characteristics of the person who killed him," she added.

A spokesman for Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said: “He believes the BBC needs to answer a number of questions very urgently.

"Obviously I have seen that the person involved has now been re-cuseded and his release or other circumstances will be dealt with by an independent parole board."

They added: "I reiterated the Prime Minister's thoughts to Jimmy Mixon's family that they should not have to see their son's killer brazenly bragging about his violent crimes."

A BBC spokesperson said: "This individual does not appear on any BBC playlists and as we pointed out to The Sun we have never played their printed lyrics.

"He has already had two other tracks played twice. 1Xtra has no plans to play his music further, we have no knowledge of his background and we in no way condone his actions."
