A man has been arrested on suspicion of the murder of Richard Huckle – one of Britain’s worst paedophiles.
Huckle, 33, was stabbed to dearth in his cell at HMP Full Sutton in Yorkshire with a makeshift blade last October.
Paedophile Huckle had targeted impoverished children in Malaysia and boasted online that it was easier than abusing kids from wealthy Western backgrounds.
“A 29-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the death of a man at HMP Full Sutton on 13 October 2019,” Police have announced.
“A file has been submitted to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) and we are awaiting their decision regarding charges.”
