TEN highly dangerous prisoners are on the run after escaping, with inside help, from the high security Qalakabusha Prison at Empangeni on Saturday.KZN police have offered a reward of R20 000 each for information that could lead to the arrest of the inmates, aged between 28 and 35, who were serving sentences including murder and armed robbery.A high profile provincial investigative team has been given the task to investigate the escape, which took place at noon.Correctional Services Minister - Ngconde Balfour visited the prison on Sunday and said officials must have colluded with the escapees.He said some warders were apparently not at their posts and doors are believed to have been unlocked.
The prisoners cut through a fence at the rear of the prison and escaped in a blue VW Polo.
‘We are still compiling an accurate report of what actually happened, please contact me on Monday at 4pm for detailed information,’ said the Empangeni Management Area Correctional Services Area Commissioner - Mnikelwa Nxele on Sunday.Provincial Head of Detective Services - Patrick Brown urged the community not to take matters into their own hands in trying to catch the dangerous criminals but to contact the nearest police station.
