You asked

​Please supply the following information:

  1. How many gang related incidents/fights/attacks have there been at HMP Thameside involving prisoners between 2015 to date (2021).

  2. If this information cannot be accessed for just HMP Thameside, then the London figure between 2015 to date (2021).

We said

Thank you for your request. ​

Unfortunately, we do not hold data on incidents in prisons.

You may, however, be interested in the 'Safety in Custody statistics' which are published by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ). Table 8c within the summary tables may be useful to you as this details the number of prisoner-on-prisoner assaults by establishment from January 2003 until March 2021. This does not specify whether the incident was gang related.

The MoJ may be able to assist you further with your query and can be contacted at ESD@justice.gov.uk.

If you have any other crime-related queries in the future, you can email crimestatistics@ons.gov.uk and we will endeavour to help.
