The Zambian National Police has issued a statement announcing that Inspector Titus Phiri has helped free 15 suspects and 13 have escaped. Two of them did not escape.
He allegedly “seized the cell keys by force”
“Intoxicated”, Titus Phiri allegedly “forcibly seized the cell keys” to his colleague before “asking the suspects to leave”. He then tells them that they are “free to move on to the new year”. A totally surreal scene but which thus allowed 13 people, arrested for theft or assault, to escape as free as a bird.
The policeman had also fled but was found and arrested. As for the suspects, none have been found yet and the Zambian police are increasing their searches to try, once again, to arrest them. “The police services have intensified their efforts to locate and apprehend the escapees”, the police explained in the press release.
