Peter Sutcliffe, 74, last night ht remained handcuffed to a hospital bed in a private room after he was rushed to casualty.

A source said: “Sutcliffe is very y unwell and he’s going to spend d the next few days in hospital. But only male nurses are being allowed to treat him on the ward he is in due to his notoriety and fears that female nurses wouldn’t want to go near him.”

The killer, who has been serving life for the murder of 13 women since 1981, was taken from HMP Frankland, Durham to the University Hospital of North Durham on Wednesday. Yesterday the Ministry of Justice said it would not comment on individual prisoners.
