Paedophile Roy Whiting,
killer of eight-year old Sarah Payne, had his face slashed
with a blade last night by a fellow inmate at top security
Wakefield Prison in West Yorkshire.
Whiting had the wound stitched in hospital following
the attack on a communal landing, and was returned to
his cell within three hours. The blade narrowly missed
his eye.
Police were quizzing inmates today.
Whiting, 42, of Littlehampton in West Sussex, was jailed
for life in December for Sarah's kidnap and murder.
