It comes after Adam Bhamji, who was wanted on recall to prison since last year, was arrested on on Saturday (July 25).
The 38-year-old was also wanted in connection with an assault on a 16-year-old boy and his father in Bamber Bridge on May 23, 2020.
He was sentenced in December 2015 to 10 years for aggravated burglary and assault, and released April 27 on licence.
