Simon Levy, who is serving a whole life sentence for murdering two women in Tottenham, will face trial next February on charges of stabbing a prison guard with a pen and attempting to strangle him at HMP Belmarsh in February. During his first court appearance, Levy entered not guilty pleas to both assault occasioning actual bodily harm and intentional strangulation. The incident occurred when Levy was finishing a meeting with the guard, Paul Dunne; he is alleged to have attacked Dunne multiple times, causing injuries to his arm and neck, before attempting to strangle him.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
