1,500 Inmates Escape Maximum Security Prison (Video)

A dramatic mass prison break in Maputo, Mozambique, has left authorities scrambling after more than 1,500 prisoners escaped from a maximum-security facility.

Reports indicate that the inmates overpowered the prison guards in a well-coordinated operation, seizing their AK-47 rifles in the process, which led to the prison break that has put Maputo on edge. The incident, which occurred under unclear circumstances, has raised questions about the prison’s security protocols..

Sources suggest that the guards were caught off guard, allowing the prisoners to overpower them and gain access to weapons. Once armed, the inmates dismantled the barriers and fled the premises en masse, causing panic in surrounding communities.

As of now, no official statement has been released regarding the number of inmates recaptured or the fate of the prison guards involved in the incident. The prison break remains tense, with authorities under immense pressure to restore order and accountability and putting the people living in Maputo, the country’s capital city on edge over the infiltration of convicted criminals into the society.
