CORRECTION TO GPS PRESS RELEASE
Further to the Press Release naming three (03) prisoners who escaped from the Lusignan Prison (Holding Bay) on November 21, 2020, a detailed, forensic re-check of the names of the prisoners officially recorded in the location’s records against the names given by prisoners during the physical muster held as soon as the escape was discovered has revealed that two (02) prisoners (not three (03)) escaped.
The two (02) escapees are:
- Phillip Jhogroo
- Donald Baird
The Guyana Prison Service regrets the error.
