Tripoli, 30 April 2103:

Some 170 prisoners escaped from Sebha prison today, Sebha Local Council spokesman Abobker Hanza told the . . .[restrict]Libya Herald. He said the breakout occurred after a dispute among the prisoners led to chaos in the jail.

Some of the escapees had gone back to the prison voluntarily, others were caught by security forces but a large number were still at large, he said.

It is the fourth jail break from the prison in the last two months.
