DISGRACED prison guard Linda De Sousa Abreu who had sex with a lag in his cell is sharing a wing with Sara Sharif’s killer stepmum Beinash Batool.
Some of Britain’s most high-profile female prisoners are being housed in the same unit and get special treatment including en-suite showers and cushy jobs.
Baby killer Lucy Letby and killer mum Sian Hedges are also held on the same wing inside HMP Bronzefield as Batool and De Sousa Abreu.
Known as House Block 4, the unit is reserved for those serving life sentences and prisoners who have enhanced status due to good behaviour behind bars.
But an insider revealed that often offenders from high-profile court cases would get moved to the cushy cells to keep them away from the rest of the prison population.
De Sousa Abreu, 30, is understood to already be housed in the unit despite only getting sentenced on Monday for having sex with a lag while working at Wandsworth Prison.
The married guard romped with burglar Linton Weirich while dressed in full uniform.
The 30-year-old was arrested after the X-rated clip – filmed by another inmate – was widely shared on social media.
De Sousa Abreu was jailed for 15 months after admitting one count of misconduct in a public office. She will serve half the time in custody and the remainder on licence.
Authorities had checked her prison issued body-worn camera and found footage of her giving oral sex to Linton Weirich earlier on the same day that the viral sex tape was filmed.
During the clip shared on social media, her radio crackles with messages which mention “all stations” and “activity patrols” but De Sousa Abreu carries on regardless.
A source told The Sun: “The inmates in House Block 4 are kept apart from the rest of the prison because some of them are high risk or high profile cases.
“They are kept away so that they are not attacked by other prisoners who might have seen their case on TV.
“All the baby killers band together in there – Lucy Letby, Beinash Batool, Sian Hedges and Michelle Smith.
“They get more space, a private courtyard, and all the cells have bigger beds with showers inside the room.
“They spend so much time there together. They all eat together unless they choose to eat in their cell on their own.
“Even though they are in there for such horrible crimes, it is almost like they are being protected.”
De Sousa Abreu is understood to have been taken straight to HMP Bronzefield from Isleworth Crown Court when she was sent down on Monday.
She will share facilities with Sian Hedges, who was found guilty of murdering her 18-month-old son Alfie Phillips last January, who also resides on the block.
A previous inspectors’ report found that the block “was more open and lighter than other house blocks” and it was “settled and well-equipped”.
There are no gates on the different sections of cells, known as spurs, so women can “move around more easily” and the block was quieter than others.
All women have in-cell showers rather than having to share.
Bronzefield in Ashford, Surrey is a custom-built women’s only prison with around 450 inmates split into four house blocks, one mother and baby unit, an inpatient care facility, and a 12-bed segregation unit.
It is also where any female offenders charged under the Terrorism Act are held.
During the last inspection of the prison in 2022, there were 50 women serving life sentences and 15 serving more than 10 years.
Letby is understood to have struck up a friendship with Batool behind bars and have been seen playing cards together on the landing between cells.
The Surrey prison has previously held notorious prisoners including Tracey Connelly and Rosemary West.
The Sun contacted Sodexo, the company which manages the prison, for comment. The Ministry of Justice declined to comment.
