The move was made in a bid to create more transparency regarding the release of prisoners. For a brief period of time, Bronson converted to Islam and went by the name Charles Ali Ahmed, although he didn’t change his name legally. “He was supposed to get out after three years but his sentence was extended after he got into a fight with another prisoner. While he was in Belmarsh, in April 1996, Bronson took three inmates hostage in a cell and as a result had another seven years added onto his sentence, although this was later reduced to five on appeal. While these charges were dismissed in February 1993, he was then arrested 16 days later for conspiracy to rob and for the possession of a sawn off shotgun. Speaking to ITV’s This Morning about meeting Bronson, Bamby said: “I’ve gone in and Charlie is stood on his hands upside down doing 100 press ups in mid-air singing this song. He was continuously transferred to different prisons as well, including to Parkhurst Prison in 1976, where he met and became friends with the notorious Kray twins, whom Bronson later described as “the best two guys I’ve ever met”. By the age of 13, he had become part of a gang of four robbers and was held in juvenile court after being caught stealing. According to Parry, Bronson’s life of crime can be traced to when he and his family moved to Merseyside, which is where he fell in with a bad crowd. Speaking about the incident, Danielson said: “The experience has left my career prospects in ruins. His defence had originally looked strong as eyewitnesses were unwilling to testify against him - this was until his girlfriend at the time suddenly became the prosecution’s main witness. He was obviously bright and always good with children.
