The inmate code

Upon entering prison, Sharif faced the harrowing reality of life among hardened criminals. Often it is understood that murderers and convicts live under a peculiar code, one that despises crimes against children.

Urfan’s reputation as a child murderer sealed his fate and stories of his crime circulated within the prison walls, branding him a marked man.

Speaking with the Sun, a source explained that since arriving at South London’s HMP Belmarsh, known as Britain’s Guantanamo Bay, “Sharif has tried to keep his head down.”

“But word quickly got round about who he was…Inmates were not happy he is in there with them and, although the other prisoners are in for heinous crimes, a lot of them don’t like people who attack children.”

And on New Year’s Day, only weeks into his life sentence, two prisoners who “were sickened by his abuse of Sara,” ambushed Ufran with a jagged tuna can lid.
