Cops have launched a global manhunt for Katie Piper’s acid attacker after he fled the country.

Thug Stefan Sylvestre, 34, is thought to have left the UK on August 2.

The Mirror revealed yesterday how he faces more time in jail after going awol while on licence.

Officers from the Met Specialist Crime Command are leading the investigation, alongside partner agencies thought to include the National Crime Agency.

Sylvestre, who left former model Katie Piper with horrific injuries, was in the process of being recalled to prison for breaching his conditions when he went on the run from police.

Last night the Met said: “Officers are appealing for information to find a man wanted for recall to prison.
