The jailbreak is being examined to see whether there was a plot involving certain jail guards and escaped inmates. Pacifico Adlawan, Arwin Bio, Chris Ablas, and Drakilou Falcon are the convicts that fled. They are all charged with robbery and murder.
Adlawan and Bio were slain in the pursuit of the authorities after reportedly fighting. The hunt for Ablas and Falcon is still ongoing. All of those who escaped were accused of robbery and murder and were deemed dangerous.
Meanwhile, a prisoner who was thought to be nearing the end of his term or ready to be freed died after being shot by the fugitives. The kidnapping of four detainees resulted in the injuries of numerous guards, who were transferred to the Muntinlupa Hospital.
Meanwhile, their two injured people are in “stable” condition. The facility where the escaped convicts are being refurbished has just been renovated, according to Chaclag.
BuCor is also in contact with the fugitives’ family and acquaintances, according to Chaclag. The victim allegedly refused to unlock the gate, prompting fellow convicts to shoot him. The event also resulted in the injuries of three correctional guards.
