Supervisors alerted by the motion detector
It is not yet 7 a.m. on Sunday when the prison’s motion detector signals the presence of an intruder in the prison compound. Guards arrest an inmate believed to be behind bars on the second floor of the establishment. She allegedly made a hole in her cell, placed sheets at her window and went down to the rampart walk where she was arrested. “The exact conditions in which she managed to get out are still a bit unclear,” agrees a source close to the investigation.
