One of two Leicester criminals who went on the run from an open prison has been recaptured.
Wayne Smart, 37, absconded from Sudbury prison on November 26, while serving four years for burglary.
The prisoner, from Leicester, appeared before Leicester Magistrates' Court on yesterday where he was remanded in custody.
He will appear before crown court at a later date.
Smart apparently absconded with James Sheldon, 34, also from Leicester, who was given an indeterminate sentence for public protection in 2006 for assault with intent to rob.
