Lie detector tests catch out 63 of Britain's worst paedophiles who had been released early from prison 

Lie detector tests have sent 63 of Britain’s worst paedophiles back to jail, while they were on early release.

After being forced to take polygraph tests, dozens of convicted offenders have confessed to breaking their conditions for early release and been sent back to jail.

Officials revealed that the results of the tests, designed to prevent repeat attacks, proved the offenders posed an ‘immediate risk’ to children.
