Plotter of Manchester bombing 'in Belmarsh' after prison staff attack
The Guardian
|April 17, 2025
The brother of the Manchester Arena bomber is reported to have been moved to the high security Belmarsh prison in south London after an attack on three prison officers.
Hashem Abedi, who plotted the 2017 bombing, is alleged to have attacked the officers with hot cooking oil at HMP Frankland in County Durham last Saturday.
Counter-terrorism police are leading the investigation into the attack, which has left prison staff fearing copycat incidents. The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has said it will carry out a review.
The national chair of the Prison Officers' Association, Mark Fairhurst, said he would meet with the justice secretary, Shabana Mahmood, next Wednesday to discuss the incident.
Speaking after a visit to Frankland, which is also a high security prison, he said the separation unit where the attack took place had been "decanted" because "it's a crime scene".
