A LAG hurled scalding water at a guard in a suspected terror attack inspired by Axel Rudakubana, it is believed.
The Islamist teenager boiled water in his in-cell kettle and mixed it with sugar before throwing it at the officer as he delivered breakfast.

Triple child killer Rudakubana, 18, chucked kettle-boiled water at a guard at London’s high-security HMP Belmarsh in May, as revealed by The Sun.
The latest incident, on Saturday at Wetherby Young Offender Institution in West Yorkshire, saw the guard treated in hospital.
A colleague also suffered minor injuries.
A source said: “Why on earth did this high-risk prisoner have a kettle in his cell?
“They may as well have given him a gun or a knife.
“Everyone believes it was a copycat of what Rudakubana did as the method is the same and, in a warped way, would have been inspired by him.
“Tests have shown the water was mixed with sugar — so the evil little scrote was trying to cause maximum damage.”
Counter Terrorism Policing North East said it was investigating the incident.
The Youth Custody Service confirmed two staff members were hurt, one of them receiving treatment in hospital.
