On-the-run terror suspect Daniel Khalife was caught after being pulled off a push bike by a plain-clothed officer, British police have said.
Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism boss Commander Dominic Murphy told reporters the 21-year-old former soldier, who escaped HMP Wandsworth four days ago, was arrested on suspicion of being unlawfully at large and being an escaped prisoner.
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, currently in India at the G20 summit, told UK media he was "very pleased with the news".
"My thanks to the police officers for their fantastic work over the past couple of days," he added.
The 21-year-old former soldier fled from Wandsworth prison in south London on Wednesday morning, probably by clinging to the bottom of a delivery van.
His disappearance triggered a major hunt with extra security checks introduced at ports and airports amid fears he may try to flee the country.
But following confirmed sightings in south west London, he was eventually apprehended in the Chiswick neighbourhood this morning.
He last appeared in court in London on 28 January and was remanded in custody over two incidents at the Royal Air Force base in Stafford, central England, near the army barracks where he lived.
Khalife is accused of "attempting to elicit information of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism" in August 2021.
He was also charged with a bomb hoax by placing a suspect device at the RAF base on 2 January this year.
His trial at Woolwich Crown Court - attached to Belmarsh prison - had been set to begin on 13 November.
