case Kevan Thakrar, who gave me the evidence shows that this rotten jail needs an examination of the root and branch

I gave evidence to the defense in the Crown Court in Newcastle recently. The man of judgment, Kevan Thakrar, was charged with two counts of attempted murder and three counts of wounding with intent. The charges stem from an incident in March last year, at Frankland Prison, a maximum security prison in County Durham. Three prison guards, two men and one woman, were injured when, according to prosecutors, Thakrar, a triple murderer, has launched an unprovoked attack against the three with a broken bottle of sauce as a weapon.

The signs were ominous for the defense, the prosecution called no less than 25 prison officers and officials, all of impeccable character - and produces images of video clearly shows he did Thakrar officials criticized his improvised weapon when he opened the cell door. Thakrar admitted to injure officers, but said he did so for fear of being attacked themselves. He said he had been physically and sexually abused by staff at Frankland and systematic racist regime operated in prison. Thakrar, who is of mixed race, said some agents consider the prisoners as non-white Muslims and subjected to constant abuse against Muslims. He said some staff from the prison of white prisoners encouraged to attack the "Muslims". He said he was suffering from the syndrome of PTSD at the time of the attack, an allegation supported by a consulting psychologist, originally a prosecution witness, but called by the defense after the report has corroborated the testimony of Thakrar on their state of encouragement.

This is not the first time a court has refused to accept the word of Frankland prison guards. In 2005, an inquest jury heard evidence concerning the death of a prisoner, Paul Day, found hanged in the segregation unit Frankland in 2002. Prisoner after prisoner told the terrible conditions and abuse daily and Durham coroner said he would not accept the testimony of certain employees. Since then I have received reports of abuse by staff at Frankland on a regular basis depressing. All claims are racist, particularly against Muslims, a theme that runs through them and, in 2008, the Chief Inspector of Prisons, Anne Owers, said that prisoners of black and ethnic minorities, especially Muslims We felt unsafe in prison. In this year, a Muslim prisoner had his cell on fire, and before that was another of boiling cooking oil on it.
