Pete Doherty moved to segregated prison area

Pete Doherty has been moved to a segregated unit at Wormwood Scrubs after reports that other prisoners planned to attack him, and friends are reportedly selling his belongings.

More from the pop jails, and more on Doherty. Last week, you may recall, Pete's manager was telling the press to leave his client alone but, according to Sky News on Friday, it was his fellow inmates who really needed that message. The Babyshambles frontman was moved to a segregated area of Wormwood Scrubs prison after it was discovered that some other prisoners were planning to attack him.

A 'source' told Sky News: "Pete is in the segregation unit for his own safety, and partly because he asked for the move himself".

As if that wasn't bad enough, The Sun reports that his friends have been selling his belongings while he's locked up. A 'source' said: "Pete's mates, people he really trusts, have been flogging his stuff to get some cash, including some of the paintings he did using his blood. The chap selling those, one of his closest friends, was begging for no one to tell him. The next day he was back with something else".
