German tennis star Boris Becker has been freed from a British prison and will be deported from the country, PA Media reported on Thursday.His release comes more than seven months after he was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison
He was found guilty of hiding hundreds of thousands of pounds of assets after he was declared bankruptIn April, Becker, 55, was jailed for two years and six months by a London court for hiding hundreds of thousands of pounds of assets after he was declared bankrupt.
Becker had previously been convicted of tax evasion in Germany in 2002, for which he received a suspended prison sentence. The former tennis great had won his first Wimbledon final in 1985 aged 17 becoming the youngest and first unseeded player to claim the men's singles title.Becker had denied all the charges in relation to the London court proceedings, saying he had cooperated with the bankruptcy proceedings — even offering up his wedding ring — and had relied on his advisers.
