He was taken to the Royal Hobart Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

On Tuesday a 28-year-old male prisoner was charged with attempted murder and is expected to appear in the Hobart Magistrates Court.

The Risdon Prison complex houses minimum- to maximum-security inmates and has a mental health unit.
