But a source said: "Rudakubana is pure evil - and the threats have continued despite his previous attack.
"Staff fear a repeat and he has nothing to lost.
"Threats are noted on the system if a prisoner says things like, 'I will kill you' or 'I will smash your face'.
'They are also recorded if a prisoner shouts threats or things like 'Allahu Akbar'
"Notes have been kept about Rudakubana - and they all point to him being the most dangerous prisoner in Britain.
"It is incredibly rare for someone to be on a five-man unlock.
'The last inmate I can remember who was on it was Charles Bronson in the 1990s and he is a much bigger and stronger guy than Rudakubana.
'It just shows how dangerous he is.
'And it is even more rare for someone to be banned from all IT and computer systems.
'That happens only to the most dangerous terrorists in the system.
Southport monster Axel Rudakubana eyes move to 'cushy' secure hospital as he has tests to see if he's 'mad or bad'
'Inmates cannot go online, but they do things like order from the canteen and education courses on the intranet-style system.
'But even that is seen as too dangerous for Rudakubabana.
'He is completely unrepentant and as far from being rehabilitated as you can get.'
He is under investigation by police over an incident on May 8, when he is said to have hurled a boiled kettle at guards.
Rudakubana — jailed for murdering three girls in Southport last year — is classed as high-risk.
He is also barred from using any computers or IT systems at HMP Belmarsh, South London.

Stolen farm quad bikes used in urban crimes
After farming in Derbyshire for half a century, Robert Wigley became the victim of a major theft for the first time last quad bike, trailer and a selection of power tools were stolen is not alone and the National Farmers' Union (NFU) says quad bikes like Robert's are stolen and used to commit other crimes in the theft, Robert has stepped up security on his farm in Middleton-by-Youlgreave by installing CCTV cameras and he now keeps his new quad bike in a big metal shipping story is being told as part of Farmwatch, a BBC initiative which celebrates farming communities across the country. "I can't use the proper word that I would like to use, but I am annoyed," Robert said."You can't take the law into your own hands, you have to leave it up to the powers that be and hope that they come up with a result."Derbyshire Police say a 37-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of burglary and theft in connection with the incident. He has been released on bail as investigations of the day-to-day work on Robert's cattle farm is done by his son, because he needs a stick to help him quad bike was chained to a girder in a barn when it was taken - but Robert is confident that thieves will not get through his new security asked how the theft had made him feel, the 71-year-old said: "More annoyed. Definitely not nervous."We are not the sort of family that gets nervous - but we're more aware of our surroundings." The theft of quad bikes is something that is on the radar of the NFU's Derbyshire chairman Jane Bassett, who has a cattle farm in Hartington, and is in regular contact with the police."Quite often [quad bikes] go and they will be used in other areas. They will go out of the county and go further afield into cities and are part of even more crime," she said."So two crimes have been committed."According to the Police National Database, 11 quad bikes have been stolen in Derbyshire in 2025 and 19 were stolen last Andrew Huddleston, head of the National Rural Crime Unit, said these figures do not tell the full picture because some thefts will not be reported by said there was "undoubtedly" a link between these thefts and organised crime, and these vehicles were attractive to criminals because they were versatile."If you have a quad bike, or an off-road motorbike, you can go where a police car can't, you can disappear into a back street, you can go off-road, you can go up steps, you can go on a rail line," he added that many of the bikes that were stolen were involved in acts of anti-social behaviour in cities and warned that people like Robert should be on their guard because they are likely to be targeted again."If you are a victim of crime in a rural area, you are increasingly more likely to be a victim again because the criminals know you have this type of machinery, they know where you are and it is often because you are accessible to get in and out and steal things," he said.

New checks on recycling tyres after BBC reveals millions sent to furnaces in India
The Environment Agency said it is introducing enhanced checks on the export of tyres from the UK after the BBC revealed millions were being sent to furnaces instead of being recycled in India.A report by the EA acknowledged it is "highly likely" that a proportion of exported tyres were diverted to illegal makeshift industrial plants, intended to extract steel, small amounts of oil and other materials, can cause serious health problems and environmental and the tyre recycling industry body welcomed the announcement but said the proposal will not close all loopholes exploited by criminals. The UK generates about 50 million waste tyres (nearly 700,000 tonnes) every year. According to official figures, about half of these are exported to India, supposedly to be in March of this year BBC File on 4 Investigates and Source Material, a non-profit journalism group, revealed that some 70% of tyres exported to India from the UK and the rest of the world are being sent to makeshift industrial plants, where they are "cooked" in order to extract carbon black – a powder or pellet that can be used in various industries – as well as the steel and process is known as pyrolysis and takes place in facilities akin to homemade pressure cookers, often in rural backwaters. They can produce gases and chemicals which can be toxic, harmful to public health and potentially January, two women and two children were killed in an explosion at a plant in western state of Maharashtra, where European-sourced tyres were being processed. A BBC team visited the site and saw soot, dying vegetation and polluted waterways in the surrounding area. Villagers complained of persistent coughs and eye the BBC revealed that millions of tyres were being "cooked" in these plants, the Environment Agency launched a review, which concluded last acknowledged for the first time that it's "highly likely" that a proportion of tyres from the UK are diverted to illegal pyrolysis as opposed to being recycled."We have not been able to verify that exported waste pneumatic tyres are arriving at their intended destination sites in India," the EA said, adding that there was a "lack of sufficiently credible information" that they were being processed EA said it has an obligation to prohibit exports of waste if there is a risk that the waste will not be managed in an environmentally responsible way, and it would introduce enhanced checks on tyre exports from 1 the proposals those exporting tyres will have to satisfy the EA that waste is being recovered in environmentally sound manner. But the pressure group Fighting Dirty, which threatened the EA with legal proceedings over what it called a "lack of action" over tyre exports, said there is "too little detail" to satisfy them that the EA's proposals will "effectively close the loopholes exploited by group's founder Georgia Elliott-Smith said the plan "sounds promising" but just seems to be self-certification paperwork with the threat of inspections - "not much different from today's flawed protocol"."Only time will tell if this results in meaningful change, or just more red tape and delay," she Tyre Recycling Association (TRA), which has long campaigned for a ban on exports of whole tyres, an approach adopted by the Australian government, said it was "very disappointed" the EA dismissed that believes tyres should only be exported after shredding, which it said would make it more expensive and difficult to sell them illicitly in India."Yet again, the EA is failing us as well as themselves," the TRA EA said the new regulations are a "pragmatic solution" that will continue allow waste tyres to be exported to India, where exporters can show they are being sent somewhere with broadly equivalent standards to the UK.
