From first link:
“In response, the Ministry of Justice points out eligibility for the scheme is based on the offence, not the offender, and that offenders may be released early from their sentence for a lesser offence when they have previously completed a sentence for a sexual or violent offence.”
Your second link is behind a paywall, so I went looking for an alternative, which reveals Lawson Natty has not been released and is awaiting deportation, refer link below:

Your third link: The Republica failed to mention some salient points. Fortunately The Daily Mail provides the important missing details:
“A prisoner was arrested on suspicion of rape moments after being set free under Sir Keir Starmer's early release scheme, MailOnline can reveal.”
“The man was seen walking out of the gates of the jail before turning his head from side to side in astonishment as he realised police were waiting for him.
He allowed himself to be cuffed and led away into a waiting van that took him to a nearby police station. “
“Following an enquiry to the Met, it has emerged the man, 28, was arrested on suspicion of rape, sex assault and a racially aggravated public order offence - raising the question of why he was ever lined up for early release in the first place. “
“It is unclear when the alleged rape took place.”
It seems like someone forgot to charge this guy with crimes he committed before he was sent to Prison, which probably explains why those crimes were not considered in his release.
Thanks for the links.
