Pris­ons Com­mis­sion­er Ger­ard Wil­son says the six pris­on­ers who were re­cap­tured short­ly af­ter a dar­ing es­cape from the Gold­en Grove Prison will now be moved to the Max­i­mum Se­cu­ri­ty Prison and face ad­di­tion­al charges.

How­ev­er, Wil­son yes­ter­day con­firmed to Guardian Me­dia that in­mates Mikhale Mo­hammed, Stef­fon Austin, Joshua Janet, Brent John­son, Ker­ry Valenti­no and At­i­ba Sealy are still in po­lice cus­tody.

The men were re­cap­tured in Las Lo­mas hours af­ter es­cap­ing from Re­mand Prison at Gold­en Grove. They were part of a group of eight men who made a mad dash for free­dom some­time be­tween Tues­day night and Wednes­day morn­ing.

Wil­son said the six pris­on­ers were be­ing in­ter­ro­gat­ed, “be­cause the po­lice would have a lot of ques­tions for them too which would prob­a­bly lead to the re­cap­ture of the oth­er two or they would get per­ti­nent in­for­ma­tion to see if crim­i­nal charges should be laid against any­one and see if they had as­sis­tance.”

Wil­son was speak­ing at the re-com­mis­sion­ing of the Pris­ons Sports and Recre­ation­al Club in Arou­ca. He said de­spite ru­mours of a sev­enth in­mate be­ing re­cap­tured, he on­ly had con­fir­ma­tion of six de­tained by po­lice.

“I have not got­ten any in­for­ma­tion that they are back in the sys­tem. I guess as soon as they re­turn I will be in­formed and we will lo­cate them in a par­tic­u­lar place,” Wil­son said.

Wil­son said the pris­on­ers would have es­caped from the Re­mand Prison be­cause it is lo­cat­ed in a low-se­cu­ri­ty set­ting. He sug­gest­ed they would be moved to the MSP on their re­turn.

“When these in­mates come back, of course, we would place them in places that would make it a lit­tle more dif­fi­cult.”

How­ev­er, he be­lieves not all can be housed at MSP due to over­crowd­ing.

He added that they will al­so face ad­di­tion­al charges of es­cap­ing law­ful cus­tody in ad­di­tion to the mur­der charges they were orig­i­nal­ly in­car­cer­at­ed for.

Wil­son said a pre­lim­i­nary in­ves­ti­ga­tion has been com­plet­ed in­to the es­cape and he has in­struct­ed a Se­nior Su­per­in­ten­dent to launch an en­quiry.

The en­quiry, he said, will de­ter­mine what went wrong and what needs to be done to pre­vent a re­cur­rence.

“The en­quiry now will go in­to de­tails and it prob­a­bly looks for cul­pa­bil­i­ty, if any and what could we do bet­ter. And most im­por­tant for me is the rec­om­men­da­tions. We can’t just look for who is cul­pa­ble, we should be able to de­ter­mine how do we go for­ward and do bet­ter than what we did be­fore.”

Pris­on­ers Olatun­gi Den­bow and Michael Find­ley re­mained at large yes­ter­day and are deemed armed and dan­ger­ous.

The Prison and Po­lice Ser­vices are call­ing on any­one with in­for­ma­tion to come for­ward.
