Over a
dozen escaped convicts still on the run in Guyana. |
August 28, 2007: The Caribbean Media Corporation
(CMC) reported yesterday that Fifteen prisoners are still on
the run after a major jailbreak in Berbice, Guyana on
Saturday. They stated that Police reported that 18 men broke
out of the New Amsterdam prison, using a hacksaw to cut
through steel bars. They then jumped a fence to freedom.
Stabroek News reported that three of the men have since been
recaptured while the other 15 are believed to be hiding out
in cane fields at the back of Lochaber, West Canje, Berbice.
The incident has reportedly unnerved locals of Berbice who
have suffered a series of high-profile robberies and
killings recently.
The escape occured moments after Home Affairs Minister
Clement Rohee had touched down in the Berbice to hold
consultation with fishermen and the business community. |
