Serial killer Ivan Milat has been admitted to hospital this afternoon after being transferred from a special medical wing at Long Bay prison where he is being housed after a cancer diagnosis.
Serial killer Ivan Milat has been transferred from Long Bay jail and admitted to Prince of Wales hospital this afternoon.
The 74-year-old terminally ill killer is believed to be suffering from a high temperature and was moved to the secure wing of nearby Prince of Wales just after lunch today.
It’s believed his condition is not life threatening at the moment despite his prognosis of oesophagus cancer months ago.
The convicted killer of seven backpackers was removed permanently from Supermax Prison in Goulburn after the diagnosis and now is housed at a special hospital wing at Long Bay.
