200 inmates escape from Pak Malir district jail in Karachi, 78 recaptured
Capital Information
|June 04, 2025
Over 200 Pakistani inmates broke out of Karachi’s Malir District Jail, following a temporary emergency evacuation by prison authorities due to low intensity tremors in the area.
-
However, the evacuation turned into a massive jail-break, as the confusion and hurriedness gave many inmates the perfect opportunity to run.
According to Sindh IGP Ghulam Nabi Memon, over 2,000 prisoners were brought from their barracks for counting during the evacuation process. But the safety measure soon turned into full-fledged chaos, as hundreds started running. The Frontier Corps personnel stationed at the prison resorted to massive aerial firing to push them back but 213 of them escaped.
So far, only 78 of the escapees has been caught, with one killed by the Frontier Corps during the jailbreak amid further deterioration of the situation, according to Duniya News. Over three FC personnel were also badly injured.
