Collins Jumaisi, the main suspect in the Kware dumpsite murders, is among 13 prisoners who have escaped from the Gigiri Police Station under unclear circumstances.
According to a police report seen by The Standard, Jumaisi and the other prisoners cut through the wire mesh at the station's basking bay before fleeing.
"An officer and the canteen manager discovered the escape when they went to serve breakfast and found the cell door open," the report read.
Jumaisi, 33, was in custody for murder charges, awaiting arraignment.
The remaining 12 escapees, identified as illegal immigrants, are still at large.
A search operation is underway to locate them.
Collins had confessed to killing 42 women between 2022 and July 11, 2024, following his arrest last month, after several mutilated female bodies were discovered at the Kware dumpsite, sending shockwaves across the country.
