Yesterday Paul, 43, said: “It should never have been allowed in the first place.

“But I’m glad The Sun’s story led to action.

“It’s good that TikTok have agreed to take the video down.

“At least they have acted after it was pointed out to them.

“People like him are in prison to be punished.

“They should not be able to lead what looks like a normal life and enjoy themselves after ruining other people’s lives.”

Paul, of Newcastle , was attacked when he confronted Scott, 22, for snatching a gold chain from his 16-year-old son at knifepoint.

Scott, of Gateshead, was jailed for 11 years after his original eight-year sentence was deemed too light.

His videos were posted under “HMP hardest rapper Robdog” and geo-tagged “HMP Manchester, Strangeways”.

The prison is investigating.
