The three policemen, a corporal and two constables who were on duty at the time of the escape have been arrested and detained pending investigations.
The escapees are said to be among 28 suspects being held in police cells for allegedly committing various crimes including robbery.
In a telephone interview, the Divisional Crime Officer, Assistant Superintendent of Police, William Daah said that one of the escapees (name withheld) had been arrested and was due to be arraigned before the circuit court at Mpraeso today.
