Police has arrested Thursday evening one of the twelve prisoners who escaped Monday from Prey Sar. Twenty-one-year-old Chat Ratana who was temporarily incarcerated for theft of mobile phones, was arrested while betting on World Cup soccer matches near the old stadium. He explained how the escape was prepared and how he and his accomplices saw off the metal bars. He gave us also indications on how to find the escapees,” Mak Chito, the deputy director of the criminal department of the interior ministry, indicated.
The police officers look first of all to catch Heng Vuthy, nicknamed the “Devil,” a former criminal police officer in Phnom Penh who was arrested at the beginning of the year. He was accused of participating in several assassinations, in particular that of judge Sok Sethamony and a business woman at the central market. “We are pursuing the investigation and we had quite a few clues,” Mak Chito assured.
Following the escape, a prison guard who was accused of providing the saw to the escapees, was arrested, while a deputy of the director of the jail and another guard were suspended. Given the presence of the “Devil” among the escapees, some thought that the escape was prepared with important means with the only goal of freeing the latter. Mak Chito denied this idea. “There was no big preparation. The guards helped the escapees in exchange for a small amount of money,” the officer explained.
