Vickrum Singh Digwa, the 23-year-old man serving a life sentence for the murder of University of Southampton student Henry Nowak, has become the focus of widespread social media speculation after unverified reports claimed he was attacked in prison days after his sentencing.
The allegations, which began circulating online around 6 June, claim that Digwa suffered serious facial burns after being targeted with so-called 'prison napalm,' a mixture of boiling water and sugar sometimes associated with prison assaults.
