Hashem Abedi, serving a 55-year sentence for his involvement in the 2017 Manchester bombing, allegedly attacked three guards in a high-security prison. The assault involved the use of hot cooking oil and sharp homemade weapons, resulting in serious injuries. Despite his violent behavior, Abedi was given a spork to eat with, which raised safety concerns among prison officers. He has since been moved to a segregation cell at HMP Belmarsh after the incident, as an investigation by Counter Terrorism Policing unfolds.
The Prison Officers' Association (POA) reported that the three guards were attacked with sharp objects and hot oil, with two suffering life-threatening injuries.
Following the violent incident, Abedi has been moved back to a segregation cell in HMP Belmarsh, where he previously attacked a prison officer.
Experts warn that sporks, though designed as a compromise utensil, can potentially be sharpened, raising serious safety concerns for prison officers and staff.
The prison officers' union reported serious injuries for two guards while a third was released, highlighting the shocking nature of the attack on staff.
