According to the Ministry of Home Affairs, 14,043 people, including prisoners and those detained for investigation, have broken out of prisons and police detention cells. Of these, only about 4,000 have been arrested, while the rest are still absconding. The Police Headquarters has mobilized a special mechanism across the country to search for escaped prisoners and vandals. Along with the Ministry of Home Affairs, the security agencies have also appealed to the general public to inform about this. There is a risk that crimes may occur across the country due to prisoners and detainees who have escaped from prisons and detention. Keeping this in mind, the home has made a public appeal to report the crime on Friday.
