Fruit picker accused of stabbing Lilia Valutyte 'rushed to hospital'
Lithuanian national Deividas Skebas, 22, is understood to have been held at Category A Wakefield Prison, but was the victim of a vicious attack.www.dailymail.co.uk
fruit picker accused of stabbing to death nine-year-old Lilia Valutyte has reportedly been rushed to hospital after being slashed and battered by a shank-wielding cellmate in a brutal prison attack.
He stayed overnight in hospital before he was returned to his cell the following day.
A source told the newspaper: 'Skebas was beaten to a pulp and also slashed with a makeshift shank weapon - likely a razor blade in a toothbrush.
People have been plotting against him for a while and on Sunday they got their chance, with a few running into his cell and ambushing him.
'There was one bloke who meted out the beating, aided by a couple of others who joined in and kept watch. He was in a very bad way and was basically left for dead.
'Guards found him and acted very quickly, and he was taken to hospital by air ambulance. Skebas has had a target on his back since he arrived – and really this attack was only a matter of time.
'There are a lot of nasty people in Wakefield, in for a lot of awful things – but the fact the Lithuanian is accused of killing a nine-year-old made him a target. If guards had not found him, it could have been all over for him.'

Oh wow. That's got me wondering about a few things. Seems such a coincidence that Lilia would then get murdered in a random attack.Gran of Lincolnshire stab victim, 9, set fire to hotel with relatives inside
Inga Papstaitiene is accused of setting fire to a hotel with her family inside on her daughter's wedding night, three years before her grandaughter was stabbed in the streetwww.mirror.co.uk
The grandmother of a girl who was stabbed to death has been accused of setting fire to a hotel with her family inside on her daughter's wedding night.
Lilia Valutyte, 9, bled to death on Fountain Lane, in Boston, Lincs, last month, after she was attacked by a knifeman while she played hula hoop with her younger sister.
Her mother, Lina Savicke, 36, who had been working in a nearby café, found Lilia's body just moments later when she heard the screams of her younger daughter.
Deividas Skebas, a 22-year-old fruit picker originally from a village close to the north-eastern Lithuanian city of Utena, has been charged with Lilia’s murder.
But now it has emerged that Lilia's grandmother, Inga Papstaitiene, allegedly started a blaze at a hotel with her relatives inside including Lilia and Lina, in September 2019.
But did they live in the same area in Lithuania?Oh wow. That's got me wondering about a few things. Seems such a coincidence that Lilia would then get murdered in a random attack.
My blood is boiling now. What's the reason that the perpetrator is unfit to stand trial?
