Charles Bronson has issued a warning over his “fake son” in his first letter from jail after his parole was refused, it is reported.
Dubbed one of Britain’s most violent offenders, Bronson has spent most of the past 48 years behind bars - apart from two brief periods of freedom during which he reoffended - for a string of thefts, firearms and violent offences, including 11 hostage-takings in nine different sieges.
And at the end of last month the Parole Board concluded he lacks the "skills to manage his risk of future violence", while he was also denied a transfer to an open prison.
But Bronson is already thinking ahead to his next review and wants to ensure that none of his pals attack his “fake son” George Bamby as it could affect his chances of getting released.
In his letter, Charles is believed to have written: “I’m not into all that ‘he said, she said’ b****x. that’s for you keyboard warriors."
He added, reported The Sun: “But I’ve had to stop six of my good pals from hurting Bamby or it will only reflect on my next parole review in 2025.”
Bronson went on in his letter to call Mr Bamby “nothing but a pathological liar”.
George Bamby, a self-proclaimed PR agent, said he had forged a relationship with Bronson after Britain's longest serving prisoner had seen him appear on TV, reported YorkshireLive.
He claimed Bronson, who changed his name to Salvador in 2014, had contacted him to help him promote himself and to make sure he wasn't 'forgotten about'.
Mr Bamby said he was banned from visiting Bronson in jail when he was outed as a journalist and claims the pair then cooked up a plan to pretend they were related.
Speaking to Talk TV after Bronson lost his Parole Board bid for freedom, Mr Barmby claimed the cover-up had been the 'bane of his life'.
Mr Bamby said: "Charles Bronson approached me six years ago when he saw a TV programme 'Confessions of the Paparazzi'. He realised I was really good with the media and he wanted me to get them on his side, to get him in the papers, get loads of publicity for him and make sure he wasn't forgotten about.
"And obviously try and expose what was going on in the prison service. So I went to visit him and then I was banned from visiting him because I was a journalist with a press pass and all the rest of it.
"So me and Charlie, together, made up the story that he was my dad. Charles Bronson is not my father. I am a PR agent, I am a marketing person and I am the UK's number one paparazzi right. I've not told anyone this for six years and it has been an absolute bane of my life."
