Ahmed Ali Alid, 47, faces charges of attempted murder, assault occasioning actual bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon. The charges relate to incidents at HMP Full Sutton on 8 August last year and at HMP Wakefield approximately two months later.
Alid was convicted in October 2024 of the murder of Terence Carney, 70, who was killed on a street in Hartlepool.
He is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates Court tomorrow.
