BANDUNG - The Lampung Regional Police revealed the chronology of the re-arrest of one of the seven prisoners who had previously escaped from the Way Kanan Police detention house. Until now, the other six prisoners are still being pursued by the police.
Lampung Police Chief Helfi Assegaf explained that the escape of the seven prisoners was known on Monday, February 23. After receiving the report, the Lampung Police immediately formed a joint team to carry out searches and pursuits in a number of areas suspected of being hiding places for the prisoners.
"In the series of search operations, we managed to arrest one prisoner who had previously escaped, while the other perpetrators are still being pursued by the joint team," said Helfi, quoted by Antara, Tuesday, February 24.
According to Helfi, the arrest was made after the police received information about the movement of one of the prisoners. The team then moved quickly and secured the person concerned without resistance. "We make sure that the one arrested is a prisoner who escaped from the prison," he said.
After the arrest, the Lampung Police continued to deepen to uncover the full chronology of the escape of the prisoners. The investigation was also directed to trace the possibility of negligence or the involvement of other parties in the incident.
"The investigation process is carried out by prioritizing the verification and matching of information from various sources," said Helfi.
The Lampung Police Chief also appealed to the six fugitives to surrender immediately. The police, he continued, had communicated with the families of the detainees to encourage voluntary surrender.
"We have conveyed to the family that the prisoners who are still on the run should immediately surrender voluntarily," he said.
The Lampung Police confirmed that the search for the other six detainees would continue until they were all recaptured.
