Police are searching for a prisoner who escaped from Government House last Friday while operating under Fox Hill Prison’s work programme.<\/P><\/p>\n
Nikita Jean, 18, whose last known address was Cowpen Road, was serving a prison sentence for a drug offence.<\/P><\/p>\n
He reportedly met his getaway while working at Government House last Friday.<\/P><\/p>\n
According to Prison Superintendent Dr. Elliston Rahming escapes like this are “bound to happen at some point”.<\/P><\/p>\n
Each day over 200 inmates take part in the prison work programme.<\/P><\/p>\n
Some of them work within the prison confines while others are allowed to work at various locations outside Her majesty’s Prison as they are considered more trustworthy.<\/P><\/p>\n
Dr. Rahming said he is confident in the ability of the prison officers to supervise the inmates and noted that the record for recapturing those who escape is still “enviable”.<\/P><\/p>\n
Any inmate who attempts to escape automatically receives an additional two year sentence.<\/P><\/p>\n
