JAMBI - Jambi Regional Police Chief Inspector General Albertus R Wibowo directly inspected the Child Special Guidance Institute (LPKA) in Sungai Buluh Village, Muarabulian District, Batanghari Regency, Jambi Province. This visit was carried out following the escape of 24 prisoners entrusted by the Batanghari Police.
"Currently, one detainee has surrendered himself," said the Head of Public Relations of the Jambi Police, Kombes Mulya Prianto in a written statement quoted by Antara, Monday, November 15.
The detention of 24 detainees was carried out because the Batanghari Police Building was under construction. Mulya Prianto confirmed that his party had been dispatched to chase the escaped prisoners.
"Further developments will be conveyed later after the results of the inspection from the Regional Police Chief in the field," said Prianto.
Data from the Batanghari Police report, Jambi, the incident began on Sunday, November 14, 2021 at around 21.30 WIB when the security guard inspected the detention cell.
At around 22.00 WIB, one of the detainees, Ledi Azwar, as the mastermind of the perpetrator took a block of wood from the bathroom, then pryed one of the metal braces on the window of the detention room he was in so that the iron broke and fell off the trellis frame.
Then Azwar tried to get the iron back into the frame by tying it with a rope so the guard officers wouldn't notice it and arranged a tactic with other detainees to run away together at around 24.00 WIB.
One prisoner called the name of one of the guard officers from inside the cell room, but there was no answer from the officer. This opportunity was used by Azwar and the other prisoners to re-open the iron that had been tied to the rope.
Then they came out of the detention room through a hole or gap in the window that he managed to open and managed to get his body out so that he moved out of the detention room or hallway.
Furthermore, the person concerned is also suspected of having turned off the surveillance camera by unplugging the cable from the electrical connection which resulted in the monitor screen turning off.
Azwar is suspected of trying to find the key to the prison cell door which was hung in one of the windows of the guard room.
After successfully finding the keys, Azwar opened three doors to the prison cell which contained a total of 24 people. On the command of the prisoner named Amin, all the prisoners finally escaped together through the guard gate that had no officers, climbing the 2.5 meter high wall of the building.
The prisoners climbed the second wall and finally climbed the LPKA fence wall about four meters high by using several sarongs tied together as ropes, then the 4 people managed to escape to the plantation behind or right side of the prison.
Currently the Batanghari Police are still chasing them and one of the detainees, Rahmat Dwi Putra, surrendered only 1.5 hours after he was able to escape. He reported to the guard at the main door of the prison.
