Great Train Robber sent back to prison

The Great Train Robber, Ronnie Biggs, has been sent to Belmarsh Prison in south-east London after a brief hearing in West London Magistrates Court this afternoon.

Biggs was arrested just after nine o'clock this morning after turning himself in following 35 years on the run in Rio de Janeiro.

He decided to return home to get medical treatment that he could not afford in Brazil.

He has suffered three strokes and is debilitated and unable to talk.
