Seven Kamiti Maximum Prison wardens have been detained in connection with the escape of three terror suspects.
The three men were spending time in prison for terror-related acts when they escaped on Monday, causing widespread alarm.
Each has already been offered a Sh20 million prize by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
Dr. Fred Matiangi, the Interior Cabinet Secretary, said preliminary investigations indicated that the escape from perhaps the country’s most secure maximum jail institution was aided by carelessness and ineptitude.
“We will not only go the direction investigations will point us but we will act resolutely to ensure this kind of recklessness does not happen again because it exposes our people.,” he said, “Definitely, there is a certain level of irresponsibility we have to deal with in this particular case.”
