The move left him locked in a cell for up to 23 hours a day alongside inmates including Taliban recruit Munir Farooqi, 63, and jihadist thug Jewel Uddin, 35.

Orlebar-Forbes, of Balham, South London, was jailed for a minimum of 31 years in 2013 for his part in the murder of a rival drug dealer. Now he calls himself Abdullah.

He claims he was mistakenly held with dangerous people in the high security unit at HMP Frankland, Durham in 2019.

A source said: “He groaned from being isolated in his cell all day and he said he was assaulted by a warden.

“Officials have dismissed his story as untrue but he managed to win the bounty for being misplaced in the unit.”

Justice Department leaders say out-of-court settlement to save taxpayers from legal costs could be higher.

“It makes no sense that the MoJ wouldn’t even counter its claims,” ​​said David Spencer of the Center for Crime Prevention.

Uddin – jailed for 19 and a half years for plotting to blow up a British far-right Defense League protest – smashed six teeth of a prison officer in 2019.
