A total of 85 inmates escaped from the Manono central prison, located in the province of Tanganyika, on Sunday, July 14, 2024.



The news was confirmed to  the media on Monday by the interim administrator of the Manono territory, Germain Mwamba. He claims that the escape took place around 8 p.m. local time.


"According to the information we have received, there is a case of 85 escapees. It was around 8:05 p.m. that this escape took place. In the course of their manoeuvres, these prisoners dug a hole in a cell. And that hole was driven in to destroy the foundation of the prison as well as the foundation of the fence until all the prisoners had escaped," he explained.


On Wednesday, June 26, at least 20 inmates, including 16 civilians and a soldier, escaped from the same prison.
