Dozens of inmates escape from jail in Comoros capital
Dozens of prisoners escaped from a prison in the Comoros capital Moroni on Thursday morning by walking out of the main gate, the public prosecutor and government said, Reuters reported.
The escape of 38 inmates from Moroni Prison, the Indian Ocean island archipelago’s largest penitentiary, was caused by the negligence of security guards, public prosecutor Ali Mohamed Djounaid said.
“The prisoners took the opportunity to escape through the normal gate,” Djounaid said, adding that authorities had started an investigation into what happened.
