Gary Glitter is reportedly planning to flee "dangerous" Britain and head abroad to join his love child in Spain following his release from jail.

The paedophile rocker’s son Gary Pantoja Sosa, 21, reportedly told friends his dad, 78, wants to move away.

Musician and tattoo artist Gary Sosa lives in Spain and is yet to meet his father, but the pair are said to be in regular contact.

A source told The Sun: “Glitter is looking to move as soon as he can. He knows Britain is dangerous.

“He has a son in Spain and he’s in touch with him and he could go there.

"He’s told him that’s the plan. He will need to keep a low profile and stay out of the way."

Glitter fathered Gary Jnr with Yudenia Sosa Martinez while in hiding in Cuba in 2001, but moved to Cambodia soon after the birth.

He was then deported for suspected child abuse offences and moved to Vietnam.

After being deported to the UK he was jailed in 2015 for abusing three girls between 1975-80.

However, his bail hostel is surrounded by as many as 10 schools and now a concerned parent in the area has spoken out about their concerns.

Jonathan Wilson said: "Our children play in the woods which back onto their property, and we had to tell our kids like, don’t talk to them, don’t go near anyone there.

"Personally, I don’t like those sort of people full stop, the fact they’re slap bang in the middle of where we live. Talk about taking the p*** out of society."

The father's comments come after another angry parent marched his six-year-old daughter to the gates of Glitter ’s bail hostel demanding staff explain why they are protecting a sex offender.
