Bum Deal For Prison Nurse
Sky News ^ | July 2, 2004

Terror suspect Abu Hamza has reportedly been handed new £5,000 hooks by the NHS and his own bottom wiper in jail.

The Islamic preacher has been fitted with replacement hooks after fears his original metal ones could be used as weapons.

Worries Hamza may hurt himself wiping his bottom reportedly prompted officials to hire a £30,000-a-year nurse called Harry to do the job.

The prison helper already performs the role for other inmates at the top-security Belmarsh jail, and has earned the nickname Dirty Harry.

A source told the Daily Mirror: "This guy has one of the worst jobs in the world.

"His main reason for being there is to clean Hamza's backside, everyone's having a laugh about it.

"But it can't be left unclean, it would be a health hazard."

Hamza, 47, is in prison as the US attempts to extradite him on terror charges.

Harry - recruited from a private agency - spends up to two hours a day with his charge.

His other duties including cutting the inmate's nails, trimming his beard and changing his clothes.

Ummm.... ick.


Couldn't they just hire some French plumbers to hook up a bidet? Then, if Hamza is still dirty, that's his business.

Why, WHY is Hamza an influence?

The guy has no hands.... he's unclean.

He SHOULD be anathama to Islam.

I'm assuming before he got grabbed one of his wives wiped his butt....THIS is an inspiration for jihad? YUCK!

Does this mean "terrorist asswipe" loses some of its perjorative effect?

Why not just give him a bidot? Or better yet, one that shoots sand.

Yeah, and I'm sure that all of those "wounds" he incurred in "Afghanistan" are legitimate.

After all, no guy has ever lied about their combat service record.

Heh, heh, heh.
