Southport killer Axel Rudakubana is allowed to buy treats in prison such as Maltesers and crisps despite throwing scorching water over a prison guard three weeks ago, a source has claimed.
The 18-year-old, who was sentenced to 52 years for the murders of Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancome, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, reportedly has the treats delivered to his cell in HMP Belmarsh.
It is also claimed that he is allowed to call his family and receive money from relatives while in the south east London prison.
A source told The Sun that Rudakubana has been "spending £5.50 a week" since he attacked the guard and is allowed to buy "anything he likes as long as it's not dangerous".
They added: "He's still allowed to buy things like Maltesers and Pringles crisps if he fancies them."
The source explained: "He is mostly confined to his cell. He fills in a sheet and stuff gets delivered."
Prison officers, who are colleagues of the guard he attacked, are reportedly collecting his canteen order and delivering the items to his cell.
Rudakubana is also believed to have had visits from an imam since his attack.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:However, the 18-year-old has been barred from religious events over concerns he would be targeted.
Since Rudakubana attacked the guard he has been on a "basic" level of treatment behind bars, meaning he no longer has access to a TV and that his time out of his cell has been restricted.
He is also said to be no longer permitted to purchase butter or baby oil which could be heated for an attack.
The situation sparked fury from Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick.
Jenrick labelled the Southport murderer a "monster" and said that he had such privileges was a 'disgrace'.
"He should be stripped of them immediately, no questions asked," Jenrick added.
"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 has been caged on the same secure unit as Manchester Arena terrorist, Hashem Abedi, who assaulted prison guards in HMP Frankland last month.
The Prison Service stressed it does not provide comment on individuals.
