The 88-year-old Austrian has been jailed since 2009 after holding his daughter Elisabeth captive in his cellar for 24 years between 1984 and 2008.
Home Secretary James Cleverly today furiously dismissed depraved Josef Fritzl's reported wish to move to Britain if he is ever let out of prison.
He is claimed to have expressed a desire to 'roam free on the wild Highlands of Scotland' and to visit the 'lush green fields of Wales'.'Any attempt to travel to the UK will be refused – as it would be for anyone convicted of serious sex offences like this.' Fritzl was said to have expressed his desire to move to Britain after witnessing the 'spectacular scenery' of the UK in the documentary.
A court in the town of Krems an der Donau had ordered in January that Fritzl be transferred to a regular prison from a prison psychiatric unit after being told he was 'no longer at threat of reoffending', but this decision has since been overturned. The mother lived downstairs in the flat with her children - Kerstin born in 1988, Stefan and Felix .
