The chief of police confirmed that the escape occurred during violent protests ignited by political unrest, leading to the release of around 6,000 inmates on Christmas Day.
Bernardino Rafael reported that the prison escape was facilitated when inmates snatched weapons from guards, allowing them to free fellow prisoners amidst the chaos of a rebellion.
Rafael expressed deep concern regarding the escape of 29 convicted terrorists, emphasizing that the incident poses a serious threat to national security and public safety.
In a video testimony, a recaptured inmate described how he was freed by fellow prisoners from the disciplinary section, illustrating the chaotic nature of the uprising.
