The detained inmates who fled the correctional facility have been rearrested by the police.
The Escaped Inmates
Following the recent jailbreak which occurred after hoodlums hijacked the #EndSARS protests, 18 prisoners who escaped from two correctional facilities in Edo state have been rearrested by the police.
Recall that on October 19, hoodlums who hijacked the #EndSARS protests in the state coordinated two jailbreaks at the Oko correctional facility and Benin correctional facility. Over 2000 inmates escaped from both prisons during the jailbreak.
The state commissioner of police, Johnson Kokumo, made the news of the rearrest of the fleeing inmates known, during the parade of some suspects on Wednesday, November 18.
