Selim Sensoy escape from Glen Innes prison, arrested at home in Windsor
Fugitives have been found on the run for eight months after stealing a tractor to flee.
After almost nine months on the lam, a jail escapee has been captured.
Selim Sensoy was hiding in a Windsor house and was arrested yesterday.
Last May, the 45-year-old fled a minimum security prison in Glen Innes and stole a tractor to make his getaway.
He served a sentence of three years for assaulting his sister and carrying a weapon.
Sensoy remains a person of interest in the disappearance of his mother.
Since December 2018, Nadire Sensoy has not been seen and her family made an emotional appeal for knowledge in June last year.
Police also given a reward of $350,000 for details.
In recent months, neighbours said they had seen Sensoy at Windsor's house, but just knew him as Tony and had no idea that he was a wanted man.
He pled guilty to fleeing arrest and stealing a motor vehicle and until 2023 he will stay behind bars.
