Notorious inmates ‘set up drug-dealing ring’ at Scots prison

THREE notorious fiends have set up a drug-dealing ring inside a jail, it has been claimed.

Race-hate killer Zeeshan ‘Crazy’ Shahid, who murdered schoolboy Kriss Donald, is said to be spearheading the high-value operation.

His right-hand man is another infamous murderer - who currently cannot be named for legal reasons.

And rapist Brian Kimmet is said to be the heavy-handed enforcer of the drugs operation, which is believed to be making the sickos thousands at HMP Dumfries.

Warders at the late Victorian-era nick are said to be baffled as to how Class A narcotics are being smuggled inside the prison.

A source said: “They’re targeting vulnerable and addicted prisoners in jail, giving them whatever they want and getting them up to their eyeballs in debt, then they have to call their families and get cash transferred.

“They’re controlling all the gear inside the nick. Powder, pills, all of it.

“Guards started photocopying their mail to stop it — but it wasn’t coming in through the mail.

“Screws haven’t got a clue how it’s coming in.

“Brian is the enforcer, the heavy guy, and the other guy is working for Zeeshan, who is running it.

“It’s been going on at least for the past year.”

A spokeswoman for the Scottish Prison Service said: “We don’t comment on individual prisoners.”

Burly Shahid, 44, known inside as Z, is serving 23 years for the barbaric murder of Kriss in 2004 along with sibling Imran ‘Baldy’ Shahid.

He was part of a gang that kidnapped the innocent 15-year-old at random in Pollokshields, Glasgow, in revenge for an attack on Baldy by a group of white men.

They stabbed him 13 times, doused him in petrol and then set him on fire.

Terrified Kriss was taken on a 200-mile drive to Dundee before returning to Glasgow, where he was butchered and torched while still alive.

Earlier this year Baldy, 45, cut his own throat in jail in a bizarre bid to protect his loved ones from revenge attacks outside jail.

Horrified staff at HMP Grampian in Peterhead discovered him with a gaping wound in his throat and he was taken to nearby Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, but Baldy survived.

Control freak abuser Kimmet, 42, from Possil, Glasgow, was caged for ten years in 2018 for rape, abduction, and attacks against several women during a reign of terror.
