Two charged with murder of singer Ian Watkins in Wakefield Prison


Two men have been charged with the murder of paedophile singer Ian Watkins, who was killed in Wakefield Prison.

The former Lostprophets frontman, who was serving a 29-year sentence, was fatally injured in an incident at the prison just after 09:30 BST on Saturday.

Rashid Gedel, 25, and Samuel Dodsworth, 43, have both been charged with murder and will appear before Leeds Magistrates’ Court on Monday morning, West Yorkshire Police said.

Watkins was jailed in 2013 for a string of child sex offences, including the attempted rape of a baby.
