A violent murderer is suing over a string of alleged incidents behind bars, including claims he was stripped naked in full view of fellow inmates who ridiculed him for the 'size of his genitalia'.
Matej Vanko, who is serving a life sentence for the murder of Donald Stevens, 53, and the kidnapping of Noelene Stevens in rural Darwin in 2012, allegedly took part in a jailhouse riot in May last year.
He alleges his treatment by prison guards in the aftermath 'left him feeling like a tortured animal, vulnerable, unsafe and distressed'.
