Tweed 'fears attack in prison'

Jack Tweed is being regarded as a strong potential target of prison violence, according to reports.

Staff at Pentonville Prison reportedly consider Tweed at risk due to his fame and the nature of his alleged offence.

The club promoter, who is accused of sexually assaulting a 19-year-old female, apparently has guards watching him closely in his private cell to prevent him from being attacked.

Michael Glover, the son of a fellow inmate, told The Sun: "A lot of people are shouting out of their cells, having a go at him."

Tweed was reportedly crying after his family failed to visit him last night.

Glover continued: "My dad gave him some food and Jack was just sitting down on his bed crying. My dad said he looked like he was s**ting himself."

Tweed will appear for a preliminary hearing at Snaresbrook Crown Court on September 21.
