Kisumu: Kodiaga Prison Inmate Arrested After Attempting To Escape

 

An inmate at the Kodiaga Maximum Prison in Kisumu County who attempted to escape from the facility on Thursday evening has been rearrested.

The inmate, who was supposed to be released from prison early next year, was nabbed by prison warders who launched a manhunt following his escape.

Senior Seargent Mika Osiga, who is based at the Kisumu Maximum Prison, was in charge of the operation that led to the arrest of the inmate.

David Dianga, the officer in charge of the maximum facility, confirmed the incident saying the inmate attempted to escape while working at the staff quarters within the prison.

He said the inmate, upon interrogation, confessed that he had been feeling homesick hence his attempted escape.

Dianga consequently noted that action will be taken against any officer who is found to have exercised laxity leading to the attempted escape.      BY CITIZEN DIGITAL
