Southport killer Axel Rudakubana is still able to enjoy treats in prison such as Maltesers and crisps just weeks after allegedly throwing scalding hot water over a prison guard.
Rudakubana, 18, is serving a 52-year-sentence for the murders of Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancome, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, on July 29 last year.
Insiders claim he has the treats delivered in his cell at HMP Belmarsh, and he is also able to receive religious visits and money from his family, The Sun reports.
One source said: "He’s been spending £5.50 a week in the canteen since the attack, and can spend it on anything he likes as long as it’s not dangerous.
“He’s still allowed to buy things like Maltesers and Pringles crisps if he fancies them.”
Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick is among those who have called for Rudakubana's add-ons to be taken away from him.
He said: “I cannot believe this monster has been allowed to keep these privileges. It’s a disgrace.
“He should be stripped of them immediately, no questions asked.
“It’s the least the victims of his horrendous crime would expect. We’ve got to regain control of prisons before an officer is killed.”
Rudakubana is understood to have thrown boiling water over a prison guard later rushed to hospital on Thursday, May 8.
A police investigation into the incident is ongoing, as is an internal probe at Belmarsh prison into how Rudakubana was able to carry out the alleged attack.
He has since been restricted to a 'basic regime', meaning his television has been removed and his time out of his cell has been reduced.
The source added: “He is mostly confined to his cell. He fills in a sheet and stuff gets delivered.
“That means that prison officers, who are the colleagues of the guy he attacked, have to collect his canteen order and deliver it to his cell."
Rudakubana is banned from buying butter or baby oil, which could be boiled to launch an attack.
Prisoners at Belmarsh are able to purchase treats such as Cadbury Twirl bars, Haribo Starmix bags, McCoy’s crisps, Diet Coke, Vimto, and cereals such as Shredded Wheat and Ready Brek, as well as fruit and vitamins.
Cards, draughts sets, prayer mats, cross pendants and prayer hats are also available, but Rudakubana is prohibited from purchasing any item that could be turned into a weapon.
This includes tinned food, after the jagged edge of a tuna can was used to slash Sara Sharif’s killer dad Urfan at Belmarsh in January.
