🚨 Breaking News: Drama Unfolds in Court Over Ian Watkins’ Death 🚨
In an unexpected development, a second inmate, Rashid “Rico” Gedel, 25, has denied murdering the infamous former Lostprophets frontman, Ian Watkins. Appearing at Leeds Crown Court, he pled not guilty to the murder charges, as well as possession of a “makeshift knife.”
Watkins, the disgraced rock star, passed away following an alleged attack in October at HMP Wakefield. Just last year, he had been brutally attacked and hospitalised amidst his 29-year sentence for appalling child sexual offences.
Gedel joins Samuel Dodsworth, 43, in denying involvement in Watkins’ death. While Dodsworth made his plea in November via video link, Gedel insisted on appearing in person. The trial for this high-profile case is scheduled for May 5.
Watkins’ dark past includes being busted in 2012 when a drug raid at his Pontypridd home uncovered devices revealing his shocking offences, leading to his initial sentence in 2013. Remember the times when the name Ian Watkins was synonymous with hit songs rather than courtroom drama?
Stay tuned for updates on this unfolding story as the trial approaches—it’s one that continues to captivate the public.
