They were not authorized to give more details on this escape, so as not to harm the ongoing investigation which must reconstruct the facts and determine any internal complicity. Nevertheless, they informed that 3 escaped women (Julie Jean-Pierre, Iceland Nogil and Angela Pierre) had been captured a few hours after their escape by the National Police of Haiti (PNH) and then taken back behind the bars of their cell.

143 escapees are still on the run.

Note that Marie Yolène Gilles, the Executive Director of the "Je Klere" Foundation, indicates that 232 women were incarcerated in this prison and not 230 as mentioned by the prison officials...

A prisoner and a policeman would have been killed during the attack by the armed individuals, information neither confirmed nor denied by official sources.
