Cell mate Charles Bronson marries
Charles Bronson, one of Britain's most dangerous criminals, married yesterday in a maximum security prison.
The 48-year-old armed robber and serial hostage taker, who has been in prison since 1975, wed Saira Rehman, 31, in a short service at HMP Woodhill in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire.
The couple had met on only three occasions after Ms Rehman saw Bronson's picture in a newspaper and wrote to him. Asked if she felt in danger marrying Bronson, his bride said: "He's a changed man."
In 1999 he held a knife to the throat of a prison teacher in a three-day stand off. He will not be eligible for parole until 2010.
