Hi All,
I have just read the following post on Unlock on the following page : https://hub.unlock.org.uk/knowledgebase/supervision-in-the-community-after-release-from-prison-and-on-probation-or-community-order/

If on Licence you could end up finishing off your sentence or you could go in for a set period (28 days) - depending on the situation. If you are out of Licence and are on your Post Sentence Supervision you may go back to custody as a punishment for non-compliance but only for a maximum of 14 days.

The part that has retained my attention is : If you are out of Licence and are on 
  your Post Sentence Supervision you may go back to custody as a punishment for non-compliance but only for a maximum of 14 days.

Could someone confirm this ?  - To clarify I am a European national currently on Post Sentence Supervision and would like to return to my home country (within EU). If I do so would that be considered as non compliance ? Would that mean that the maximum sentence I could get would be 14 days ? 
Thanks in advance.

I would strongly advise obtaining written permission from some official authority (probation, police , etc.) before leaving, should you choose to leave.

Do not leave based on word of mouth, as they will later deny they said such a thing.
