A drugs boss was let out of jail to marry his sweetheart seven months into a six-year sentence for trafficking £120,000 of cocaine.
Benjamin Connor, 27, claimed he had a ‘right to marry’ Adele Hunter, 26, in Goole Register Office under human rights laws.
The governer of HMP Humber has been blasted for the move – which is said to have left Justice Minister Robert Buckland ‘absolutely furious’.
On Tuesday, two prison officers drove Connor 30 miles from HMP Humber to Goole Register Office, The Sun reports.
Ms Hunter – now Mrs Connor – shared pictures of their wedding day online.
She posed in a white wedding dress while he donned a grey suit.
Connor’s two young children also attended the ceremony.
A top Conservative Party source said: ‘Mr Buckland is absolutely furious a governor thought this a sensible use of temporary release.
