Sirhan Sirhan has returned to prison after being treated at a California hospital following a stabbing on Friday, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, as well as Sirhan’s attorney.
"There was an assault on an inmate on Friday, August 30 at Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility at 2:21 p.m,” said a statement released to ABC News by the state corrections department on Sunday."Officers responded quickly, and found an inmate with stab wound injuries. He was transported to an outside hospital for medical care.”
The statement did not name the inmate, but Sirhan's attorney Laurie Dusek confirmed to ABC News that her client was the victim of the stabbing. “There’s been a lot of anguish and fear in not knowing where he is or how he’s doing,” Munir Sirhan, 72, told ABC News in a phone interview.
