Tommy Robinson has walked free from jail four months early after there was reportedly a mark put on his head by a lifer.
Robinson - real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon - was locked up for 18 months in October but showed a "change in attitude".
The far-right activist looked unrecognisable with a full beard as he left HMP Woodhill.
When asked how he was feeling, Robinson declared: "Unfortunately the country doesn't believe in free speech."
The former EDL leader was jailed for contempt of court after multiple breaches of an injunction in 2021.
The order banned the 42-year-old from repeating false allegations against a Syrian refugee who successfully sued him for libel.
Robinson's sentence was made up of a 14-month "punitive" element and a four-month "coercive" element - which was slashed.
This was because he "purged" his contempt and showed steps not to break the injunction that originally landed him behind bars.
He was originally due to be released on July 26.
In a ruling, a judge found that while Robinson wasn't showing remorse, he did display a "change in attitude" since being locked up.
