Female prison officer left with life-changing injuries

A FEMALE prison officer was brutally attacked and left with life-changing injuries in the Criminal Courts of Justice, it has emerged.

The Dochas Centre warder suffered facial injuries in the gruesome assault - which came just days before another warder was assaulted by a convicted murderer in an escape bid.

Sources say the young staff member was attacked by a female prisoner on remand in the CCJ last week.

She is now on sick leave awaiting medical treatment for her eye.

An Irish Prison Service said it did "not comment on individual prisoner cases," but added "any act of violence against a prison officer is unacceptable".
