Rashid Gedel, 25, accused of killing former Lostprophets singer Ian Watkins, is said to have taunted Watkins after an attack, Leeds Crown Court hears. According to the accounts reported by outlets covering the case, prosecutors describe an alleged exchange in which Gedel told Watkins, “have a good sleep,” following the incident. The reports add that Gedel is accused of fatally attacking Watkins while he was in custody. The court is considering evidence related to the circumstances of Watkins’s death, including what was said in the immediate aftermath. Both outlets report the same core allegation from court proceedings: the statement made by Gedel after the attack. The case remains subject to the court process, with Gedel denying or contesting elements of the allegations as addressed during the hearing. The reports do not indicate a final verdict, and the details are presented as claims made in court.
