Six female convicts in prison escape in Mpulungu District

SIX female inmates facing various charges have escaped from police cells at Mpulungu police station in Northern Province.

ZANIS reports from Mpulungu District that Police sources confirmed the development in an interview, today.

They said the suspects escaped from the holding cells after they tampered with the locks between 21:00hrs and 23: 00 hours on Thursday.

The suspects, some of who are believed to be dangerous, unlocked the grill door with sharp tools and the officers on duty only came to realize about the incident after they had fled around midnight the same night.

The named escapees are Esther Ngandu and Maggie Lambwe who were jointly charged with murder, Elizabeth Mutale for trafficking in psychotropic substance and Ireen Ngandu convicted for Obstruction of officers on duty.

Others are Anna Nanyangwe and Chongo Namuyemba who were also facing different charges.

Police have appealed to members the general public to come forward with information concerning the whereabouts of the suspects.

A manhunt for the six female inmates has since been launched.

    • hahahaha…
      holding cell… sure?? usually next to the reception desk…
      this story sounds fishy,,,, the police officer/officers were sexed and fell into deep sleep,, the girls got the keys from their pockets and off they ran…

  1. Ala bane ! Women are becoming hardcore these days.This is quite interesting.

  2. Hhahahahahahahha, Girl power! make sure you are equiped so that when they attempt to catch up with you namuisokela, get them girls!

  3. At they used sharp objects to open the cell door, how? Someone did’nt perform the duty. ZP also awe.

  4. “A manhunt for the six female inmates has since been launched”.
    A manhunt, really ?.

  5. Sounds unbelevable. Holding cells are usually within earshot of the duty officer. The FEMALE convicts must have offered something in exchange for their frreedom and your guess is as good as mine.

  6. I suspect that they paid in kind for their stage managed break out- the police on duty how come he did not hear the girls tamper with the door , drunk or satisfied after enjoying the forbidden fruit?

  7. hahahahaha! the story remind me of the old movie called “set it off ”
    # Gelo power!

  8. This is a first in the world. A women prisoners’ jailbreak! Where are the filmmakers? Mpulungu residents must know where these chicks are.

  9. lmfao
    its like a movie
    Zambia is developing in the wrong direction…… Still sounds exciting lol.
    Pics please, how do you launch a man hunt without giving out their pictures lol.
    Aaaaah, tukonda tyalao shimika ngako lol.

  10. That is when you men are realising that women are more sophisticated than you? Come girls, show them.

  11. This is indeed the mailoni sisters. Catch them if you can. Those cops must have been given the most cherished part of a woman ‘s body. It was an easy escape from sorbibo. Let them enjoy their freedom
