A GANGLAND war has erupted behind bars - with Daniel crime clan members injured in a string of attacks.
James McDonald, doing life for murdering Michael Lyons in an attack at one of the family's businesses, was set upon in HMP Edinburgh.
The hired hitman, who is also a convicted drug dealer and received a record sentence over the Applerow Motors shootings, was targeted last month.
The attack on the 51-year-old came following a fallout with the brother-in-law of another slain hood.
Just days later Robert Daniel, son of late crime boss Jamie Daniel, was also attacked in jail.
That attack, at the same prison, left the 34-year-old nursing a shattered eye socket.
Underworld sources say three lower level members of the crime clan were also beaten up behind bars in a show of force from their rivals.
